Mud Bogging vs Mud Racing: What's the difference?

For the uninitiated, a  Mud Bog event challenges vehicles to plow through a long, waterlogged pit of mud as fast - and as far - as possible. It's raw power meets pure chaos, with lifted trucks, big-wheel jeeps, and custom-built rigs sinking, spinning, and sometimes sinking entirely as they battle the muck.

For drivers who want to get in on the fun without a full-blown race rig, the Mud Bog event is your jam! Open to any truck, SUV or vehicle you're willing to throw down, this is your chance to claim some glory and maybe even some prize money.

For spectators, whether you're watching souped-up mud trucks race head to head or a daily driver try their luck, they spectacle si equal parts thrilling and hilarious. 

Organisers are anticipating around 100 entrants from around the region for a full day of non-stop actions.
