Default Bad IRS/IFS Buggy

Never seen a rig like this for this type of event. I wouldn't say he went as aggressive as I've seen Cameron go but it was definitely a good showing, especially being independent.

EDIT: after finding this video the independent rig smokes Tims ass on the same hill at what appears to be the same event. Maybe IRS/IFS is the way of the future....

I saw this vid too the other day. Ugly but effective beast of a rig... Nice to see someone taking a fresh approach!

I've been binge watching MadRam11 rock bouncer visa the last few days. The fact any of those axles and drivelines hold together amazes me.

looks like a near perfect recipe for hill climbs to me.
long WB
indy suspension to keep the bouncing down, and tires planted
forward bite tires
tons o horsepowers

Uh... holy shit! Track width really changes, but that sure as heck doesn't seem to matter.

I don't think you can appreciate some of those bouncer hills until you see them in person. I'd love to have watch this thing run, people were saying luck the first time but that second climb was awesome as well. With the Lasernut Racing IFS/IRS rig coming in 7th this year at Hammers, I think I'm ready to see more of these fully independent rigs show up. I like the look of that Outlaw buggy, and the fact that it even had Madram impressed says enough right now lol.

most bouncers to me look like that thing you put your ballcap inside of to wash in the washing machine. i think the indy rig looks badass! mid motor too... reminds me of that one side engine indy car yunik made.

also dig how the guy is up there on the podium in normal clothes talking like a dude who built his own shit. ;)
