Athlon64~SPARTA~ Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) No, I will do some mild off roading with it thou. Those vids are from the baha 1000 race and the terrible town 250 and thats what those races are about. 100 mph across the desert! The BAHA 1000 is none stop in 40 some odd hours of 100 mph off road raceing, except to fuel and eat and drink.

Athlon64~SPARTA~ Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) 2007 Terribles town 250 race, The most extream off roading at 100mph on terrian that would tear apart anything else, this is not some smooth dirt track, Any factory made car wouldent last 50 miles.

Elvis~SPARTA~ Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Ah, Glamis. It brings back such fond memories. I was at the bottom of the hill for this jump: Missed me by that much. Not only was I getting paid to ride ATVs, I got to watch people with far too much money cripple themselves and their loved ones. You can't have a holiday weekend like that anywhere else. Not that I dispute a drunk's right to wreck himself and his vehicle. The carnage of the children is what bothered me most. Within the first 5 minutes of beginning an evening's work was the first rollover at the top of a dune. Family of four all with spinal injuries. Nice job, Dad. For every successful canal jumper there is the poor drunk that didn't notice that the All American canal was there, and would drive in and drown. That happened the same weekend of the jump shown above in a baja bug turned submarine. The stabbings, the overdoses, the illegal aliens, the carnage, the getting my SUV stuck repeatedly, the NVGs, the overtime. I remember it well. Thanks for the flashbacks.

Athlon64~SPARTA~ Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) Well with any sport there is dangers and better judgment is a plus. useally the idiots get weeded out first. unfortunatly we can't fix stupid. I haven't been there but it looks like alot of fun. Edited December 13, 2008 by Athlon64~SPARTA~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvis~SPARTA~ Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 80,000 go there over the weekend, only a few leave crippled. Survival of the fittest. Never had so much fun on an ATV. The only rail I rode had a litter on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zathrus~SPARTA~ Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Having used several types of vehicle dynamoters; I have to throw water on their party saying: OMG!! I can't believe they are using tie-down straps! That thing was pulling the front end off the ground and moving as they stretched. Very dangerous and they are eventually going to kill somebody. With high horsepower to weight ratio's your always supposed to use chains. The frame is supposed to be chained at 4 points near each frame-axle point. With a vehicle that light, it is probably ok to have just one chain near the middle in front. In addition the front wheels have to be chalked for additional movement prevention. But the engine did sound good Also the sidewalls of those tires during the WOT was very interesting. It looked like they had drag racing slicks on the back for better traction on the rollers, it is a good visual of the complexity in racing tire design.

Athlon64~SPARTA~ Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 (edited) Those were all terrian tires on the rear. look at the tread pattern before they spin up. If those straps broke that thing would launch like a rocket! Edited December 25, 2008 by Athlon64~SPARTA~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
