A group of RC truck enthusiasts gather for a fun competition where they take turns attempting to pull a handmade, 38-pound sled with their trucks. The sled has a weight transfer system that makes it heavier as the truck pulls it. The competition is not about winning, but rather about having fun and showcasing the capabilities of their trucks. Various trucks participate, including a sidewinder, a brushless e-revo, and a custom-built truck with a 2s lipo and a 4s lipo. Some trucks succeed in pulling the sled, while others struggle or break down. In the end, one truck emerges as the winner, pulling the sled with 50 pounds of weight. The event is a success, with participants and spectators enjoying the experience and learning from each other's builds and techniques.
