Honda Powered Rough Terrain Vehicle
So, it's another boring Sunday (and it's fuckng snowing again....------- Ohio weather) and I was watching Xtreme 4X4 and they were talking about rock crawling and stuff like that. So they show this little vehicle you can buy all ready to rock the rocks and I thought it was pretty cool and then they pan down to the motor area and state that it is a 4 banger Honda motor, it appeared to be an LS motor or some other B series. I cannot find any pics of the motor on their website but here is a link to the vehicle. I though it was pretty interesting and if it is a repost.......I don't giva ----, I stil thought it was cool

yeah they were showing those at a car show we had here not too long ago but the ones i saw had a sohc zc. they were awesome all 4 link suspension with sway-a-way coilovers and they're still supposed to do 70. i dont think they were the exact ones cause these ones didnt hang so low to the ground and you could get them with like f150 style bodies and ----.

things that suck about it:
stone age style chassis/cage design, things bulky and odd shaped.
open front diff, wtf is that crap?
wondering if it even has an atlas t-case or not
rock buggies used in competition range from 45 grand and up for build costs. Trailready, which is the team my brother in law competes with just sold their old buggy that was used for 2 years for 45K. Atlas transfer cases and high pinion dana60's locked up with chromoly axles and disc brakes total up fast. not to mention the chromoly chassis.
walker evans sported one of the coolest buggies in 2004 to me. it was built by shannon campbell and campbell enterprises, and instead of sporting the big v8 like most do, he had a 2.2 chevy ecotec 4 cylinder with a turbo kit.
