Truckin’ magazine had its annual “Throwdown” challenge recently. It’s an event in which performance trucks make their way out to southern California to compete in an all out racing/performance competition. This year’s 1st and 3rd place winners, Rob MacGreggor and Rob McKeown respectively, were using the new Ridetech Triple Adjustable Coilovers. These two trucks have been winning many goodguy’s auto-crosses this year so it comes as no surprise. Below you can find more information about Rob and Rob’s 1955 F100 and 1967 F100.
