Got to love those crazy Icelanders! They build some amazing rigs.

I would love to challenge that to do the 60K we covered on Friday against the Platinum Rabbit. Is it just me or is the front clip in PR's photo being held together by duct tape?

It looks almost like that but I think its part of the tin used to keep the ash and cinder out of the engine bay...look at the other pictures...

Yeah - I think it would certainly climb straight much faster, with those tyres even faster than the Moreb hill racers! But, I think in tight dunes it would not maneuver well, with very limited wheel travel, and you would soon leave it behind you, Club Uncle 8)

I've seen what those things can do...climbing, AND across open water. Enough power and tire to cross water -- just what you need for going against some of our dunes out here. Also saw one have engine trouble half way across a small lake ---- they sink real fast too.
