I thought it was weird to specialize in writing on off-road and fashion topics until I learned these are two of Advanstar's top industries. Fashion and rock crawling aren't that different, if you think about it. Both take a unique style and careful eye to pull off.

Living by a simple principle, which is enjoy what you do, write about what you do, and get your writing published, is what drew me to covering rock crawling: I went to an event and enjoyed it, and the rest is self-explanatory if you read the previous sentence. I love covering driver and spotter profiles, because you can get to know the person behind the competition. I get to focus on understanding a person's tone of voice more than their actual words, and this helps bring individual feeling to each person's story/piece. My goal is to bring out the hero.

We spend a third of our lives in bed, so it makes sense the Frontier's are 13-inches longer than standard models.

At the UROC ProNational Pacific event in Phoenix, Hart and spotter Jeff Jones scored a 97 for a 2 nd Place finish in the Super Modified class, right behind the tire wheels and heels of Mad Rock Racing's Bruce Zeller

It might sound strange to hear longtime rock crawler Tony Kasabasich doesn?t necessarily compete for the win
