@onlytwowheels That seems, loud.
-
Wow if that thing backfires it'll really get your attention.
I wonder how warm it gets driving that thing too. -
@onlytwowheels Seems like it would be an ideal vehicle for Antarctica if you could ever get traction.
-
Just needs chains
-
I think the fumes might get to you first, so the backfire might just bring you back to consciousness.
-
What???
-
@dealkillerpoweredbyfocus I wonder if the owner still has eardrums
-
@onlytwowheels That car looks perfectly safe. Those seat belts look like they are tacked down with at least two strips of tape.
I watched the video listed in the add. Those who thought it might be a bit loud are underestimating the noise level.
-
@onlytwowheels get a different set of wheels and a little more safety 'n its ready. While we're at it may aswell make it a LLLLLLLLLOOOOOOONNNNNG hood and shorten the roof
-
Ok, so I see the how pretty clearly, but am a little confused about the why.
Better weight distribution? sure, but would any racing series in the world let you run this thing.
"Just cuz" is all I got and it seems like rather sexy car to have that done to it -
@onlytwowheels So itβs basically a Jeep.

Of course it's safe! Just listen to what the builder has to say about how he integrated advanced safety technology into the build:
"I designed the steering column for 'safety breakaway':
...if there is a major collision, the steering wheel will absorb the occupant's weight
and the column itself, by the inherent geometry, will instantly bend (fold up)
-the steering shaft uses a very stout water pump bearing! -feels good."Take that Volvo!
I'm actually kind of impressed by what this guy did. I would never want to drive it - or even be on the same road with it - but I do love how freaking weird this thing is. It's been a while since I last saw a tunnel ram too so a few bonus points for that.
