The DOMINATOR was originally built by JIMCO for John Harrah of SPEED TECHNOLOGIES with all the best options available to the Off Road industry at the time. Since TANOM RACING purchased the car in 2014, several improvements were made and it has proven to be a great, reliable and fairly easy race car to maintain. The Viper motor offers great power and torque; however the lower RPM range has definitely been noticed in the good condition of the motor.
The Albins 5 speed sequential with torque converter has also been trouble free.
We also changed all of the shocks to FOX, and suspension set up, giving her a lower and more stable ride height. She still offers an incredible ride in bigger woops, especially thanks to the 39”tires and extra weight, in addition to the TT style front end and big components all around.
We won the 2015 Championship in her, and are currently in the lead with one race to go. She is very solid, and a lot of fun to drive, and has a max speed of approximately 125MPH.

ABOUT THE JIMCO DOMINATOR
In brief, THE DOMINATOR is one bad ass Class 1 “buggy” built by JIMCO. Mike Julson wanted to design a non-fixed rear end car that could hold its own with the mighty Trophy Trucks of the Desert. It originally came with an innovative Plunging Axle design. Unfortunately, this caused quite a few complications. The No Limits crew had to redesign the system to solid axles, plunging CVs and the car has now proven to be a very solid and competitive car, but most of all, bundles of fun, especially with its V10 motor!
