Ian & Jenni Templeton in Ruby

Driven to C Class podiums by Ian & Jenni with a steady approach, the quiet nature of Ruby shows you dont need all the power or height to get through the blues!

Dan Cowper & Rebekah Templeton

For 2020 former 1NZ Dan Cowper took over Ruby for a single season, achieving two Top 10 finishes to take out the C Class title! Making Ruby to date the only other C Class truck to win in the last 5 years against Nathan Fogden in the Zook-Sport CowperTruck.

Daughter Rebekah Templeton would takeover the wheel with Jenni alongside for 2021. Together they achieved 3rd in C Class in their first season!

For 2023 Zak de Crom steps into the navigators seat for his first season of trials!
