Does any builder or has any builder ever crash tested their design?
It seems that everyone buys an off road truck or buggy and assumes that the design will hold in a crash and is built safe and sound.
Perhaps with these kinds of tests you could even build a lighter car that requires less tubes.
Without crash testing or some other kind of test, can anyone really be sure of how safe their off road truck or car is until you crash? Aside from the SCORE tag of course and I'm not sure how into detail they get aside from checking the thickness and integrity of the welds.
