This guy either knows the EXACT capabilities of his VX or he's a nutter and bloody lucky the VX didn't roll!!!!!

I've always loved that video, especially the idling diesel Land Rover driver's comment, "He's sick..."

I really found that video very funny though :p

Every body else was "Oh my god,did he did that ? "

Probes again that VX is for serious crazy mind drivers only :p

ya, i guess that way if your deep in stuck you dont have to worry about opening the back door to get the straps and get the inside of your rig all dirty...i made that mistake ONCE before i put em in the passenger seat...

good idea putting them there but it would scratch it up pretty bad

HERE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_20B974aaU) is a video that Vlad put together from ZuZoo '06 that contains some pretty good footage (a lot of VX's) including Tom on Tip Over challenge and me on Hells Gate (throwing a wheelstand:eek:). I couldn' find it anywhere so I posted it on Youtube. Hope Vlad don't mind;). I think the soundtrack was changed due to "copyright". If you want to make it original mute the sound and cue up Road To Nowhere by the Talking Heads!

Yeah, I've been looking for that video. That's a great video.

I forgot how steep Hell's Gate is. To see how steep it is check out the last 8 seconds of the video. Vlad is riding shotgun shooting video while I'm coming out of Hells' Gate. You really get a sense of how steep Hells' Gate is.

Thanks for post Billy

Peace.

p.s.
IMO, it is better with the Talking Head sound track. It's a nice mellow sound that says Moab all over it.

Yep, but damn those copyrights! The video was set and timed to the Talking Heads.

You guys do some seriouse stuff with your VX's!!!! I would be very worried about tipping etc!! lol

You just don't get that type of terrain in England, its alot of woodland, mud, quaries and green lanes ! Great fun too though!

That Irish VXer has been on here I think. I know I have seen it before with that snorkel.

Here is my contribution to the YouTube fun:

Well, I haven't finished transfering the tapes from Hell's Revenge. That footage is awesome. But yeah, the Moab footage is sweet, I just picked that one for some reason. :)

Racing on the playa is quite a bit of fun as well. It would be awesome to get a group of VXes out there and have someone taping all of us racing along. Problem with the Black Rock Desert though, is all the powdered sugar that gets everywhere. Still, good fun!!
