    ya for flying rocks! That cage seems pretty stout. they roll and if the engine still runs they mash the skinny pedal. the 5pt harness should keep them in but whats keeping their skull from banging around...I dont know

    It seems like if you took one of those rigs and brought it to lets say torchmate they might be able to really do some damage at KOH. Those things sure take a beating, the axles are HUGE!

    I have wondered why none of the guys aren't qualifing or racing in any KOH events period.

    Would you want to subject yourself to 140 miles of desert in one one things? Would you want to tumble through the desert at 70 mph with 1.5" between your skate helmit and headache bar??
    They are made for climbing hills and bashing into trees and they do it well.

    Overlooking the common sense aspect of things, I must say the vids are pretty entertaining and I am impressed with those vehicles. First time I have seen them.

    If they can take that kind of beating all day...yes..yes I would drive it for KOH..but I would have a full size helmet though..
