Gittin 1st Place: Brocky Finds the Winner's Circle at the 2017 Dirt Riot Nationals
Piloting his custom Jimmy’s 4x4-built Ultra4 Ford Bronco race car dubbed "Brocky," Vaughn Gittin Jr. continues to set his sights on being a competitive name beyond the asphalt. Racing in the Dirt Riot National Rampage at the RAM Offroad Park in Colorado Springs, Colorado, the Nitto Tire driver would battle through the pack in both the 4400 and 4500 classes.
When the dirt settled, he found himself raising the 1st place trophy in the 4500 class, as well as landing a respectable 3rd in the extremely competitive 4400 bracket.
There were plenty of opportunities for Vaughn to air out his 37x12.50R17 Nitto Trail Grapplers, and he did just that. Despite the abuse, the Ford-powered rig and its occupants finished out the race weekend unscathed.
We look forward to seeing more of Vaughn in the dirt as it’s rumored he’ll likely be taking another shot at the most difficult one-day off-road race there is: King of The Hammers.
