Yeah, I missed this thread when you first posted about it. I was a noob then. I would have smacked Stevetheclaric up

When can I go on a ride along?

That thing is pretty bad ass, but we've already seen the final results, in that same post you quoted.

There is a site on the web with a video on a test run. It fly’s by at speed. Looks like a test run. The reason I post it is because this year [2005], it will run the Rally from Paris to Dakar. Last year, it went without the Twin turbo. This year they are letting it all hang out, including the FIRE. Let’s wish these dudes a lot of luck This is one of the most grueling races in the world. Hundreds have died in crashes. Also, the tribes in Africa charge money so the cars can pass their territory. If they don't pay, thier vehicles get attack by APG's. This is the real deal.
