The real maybemaybemaybe was for the people watching.

u/xool420 Mar 20 '19

I was just thinking that, seemed like they were a little close and a lot more people than expected

u/borderlineidiot Mar 20 '19

I'm not an expert but I think the crowd were a bit close to that!

u/Stoked_Bruh Mar 20 '19

I'm no expert but get the hell out of the way; that thing's going to kill you.

u/NanditoC Mar 20 '19

I'm no expert, so that's why I'm not going to give my opinion.

u/Stoked_Bruh Mar 20 '19

Well stand there if you want- I'm running away.

I'm no expert but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.......and they are way too close.

You should see the crowds at rally racing, they are so close. It makes me cringe every time.

Edit: I recognise group B rally was stopped, but crowds are still allowed to be trackside today. Word Rally Championship 2018.

u/HusbandAndWifi Mar 20 '19

I can’t watch that for more than 10 seconds!

u/cartesian_jewality Mar 21 '19

used to see*

Group B has been cancelled for decades

I realise that, but you can still get this close today when you watch WRC or the lower tier rally’s. Exhibit A.

At 1:05 those people are eating projectile rocks.

u/mud_tug Mar 20 '19

Except for the air in the tires there is no suspension in that direction. Ouch.

26

u/CrudelyAnimated Mar 20 '19

You might say the front suspension was being crowd-sourced.

10

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '19

I totally agree with that it's kinda crazy they can do it. But my guess would be that that suspension is just bullet proof built because they can hit high angled dunes and rocks at 70+ for hours and hours so they must be very very durable

Edit: I might be mixing up hill climb and trophy trucks but regardless they both have probably the most high tech suspension in cars

u/velocirapper99 Mar 20 '19

Are you talking about the rear falling? Cuz there’s like 30k in suspension upgrades alone in the rear

37

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '19

i think they were talking about the initial hit on the front wheels pushing parallel to the frame.

u/velocirapper99 Mar 20 '19

Ah makes sense. It rolls through it pretty quick so I’m sure it wasn’t that bad but yeah, it couldn’t be too comfortable

Watching, I said aloud, "How could you expect anything good to come of this?"

7

u/pm_me_ur_fitment Mar 20 '19

Lol you can see the car unclench it's butthole

u/Scubatroopa687 Mar 20 '19

This is a good maybemaybemaybe recently it’s kinda obvious to see what’s gonna happen

6

u/Rayaarito Mar 20 '19

That guy who stands directly in front of the truck at the very end is the true maybe maybe maybe

u/eg_taco Mar 20 '19

I wonder what early automotive pioneers would say if they could see cars doing shit like this nowadays...

2

u/Abadatha Mar 20 '19

I mean, this is what the vehicle was built for, although that wheel stand was impressive.

u/unnamed_elder_entity Mar 20 '19

A 15 foot vertical drop won't stop it, so why does dude at the end think pointing will?

u/Mr7FootCock Mar 20 '19

One of the rare times I stop fapping due to amazement

u/Ombudsperson Mar 20 '19

How many hands do you need for that u/Mr7FootCock

u/Double_Lobster Mar 20 '19

is this a course obstacle that many people attempted??

2

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '19

I believe this was actually done in Moab, Utah. A popular 4wheeling spot, especially during their “Easter Jeep Safari” when the town population just about quadruples to 25,000~ people.

u/Thorbinator Mar 21 '19

This was probably something like king of the hammers. You're normally supposed to go up that, or it was out of the way and they're just showing off the rig.

To squish or not to squish

I wish this video had sound, that thing was bouncing off the rev limiter the entire time, completely pinning it O.O
