Yeah it’s a CRD. Infact all of the TT Central trucks are CRDs except for Digger 34 I think (that’s what Tyler is driving rn)

Vinson's 31 is an Inhouse, as far as i can tell.

I dont see why not. I mean tom drove a willman in arenas, i dont see why colton cant.

I don't see it being a problem. If anything i feel like Colt would benefit from having a front engine because it would be easier for him to do his nose wheelies. Same goes for a Digger for a Menninga. I would kill to see a NCGD fabricated chassis with a front engine. Kinda like a GD take on a Willman. Maybe even SUD could run it. He would kill in a Willman. Low center of gravity, more power to the front wheels, hell yeah. I can see it now.

If I had to guess, Logistics and $$$. Easier to carry parts that fit all the trucks on tour rather than bits or pieces for individual trucks. Makes parts interchangeable among trucks on tour.  A bad example, if one truck burns through all their available 4-links in a night they could get some from the other traveling feld CRD trucks. Those arena tours are hell on trucks and having each truck be roughly the same is a huge advantage for feld.  Of course everybody using the same parts means spending less to have parts stocked for a one off truck for a season.
