This is awesome! Looks like your having your cake and eating to by having all the fun and excitement!Keep up the good work!

The turbo spool up is kinda cool to listen to for sure..

great sound & great roll...

Awsome sounding spool up. Looked like a turtle on its back

thats one badass rig !

Great vid!!!! Thanks for sendin it!!! Badass buggy fo sho!!!!

Man that look like alot of fun.

Nice!! Thanks for sharing!! Does sound Good!!

That thing is awesome!!!!

Great Action Video ! thanks for sending and sharing. I subbed !

@MobRacer22 These tires are custom cut to dig into the Tennessee dirt. They are a pretty agressive tire (modified TSLs if I am not mistaken). Between the high air pressure he has in the tire and the high RPM needed to spool the turbo, I think he is just spinning too much to grip.

Love the audio.

Was thinking "Diesel" at first, sounds like the old deuce "whistler" engine, then I saw the propane tanks (like); on to the low vs. high tire pressure debate, settled in my mind after the latest edition of Petersen's 4WOR, you press the go pedal, one of three things will happen: 1) you go forward, 2) you break traction (spin), 3) you break parts; I'd rather have my weak point at the tire contact patch 'cause I ain't got a lotta money to spare

@Tapage2 I agree. It definitely sounds different. I think the reason it sounds so different might be that it may be a 6 cylinder rather than a v8.

epic roll's

badass vid

@bldeagle10 You make a very valid point in the high end/low end needs. There are some jeeps that do make it and make it look pretty easy (I have another video as a matter of fact of a jeep with smaller tires etc just walking right up it). This is more of a thing to say "Hey, look what i have and you don't" in my opinion. Still an awesome buggy!

Turbo Buggy! Nice

@Tapage2 Actually I am pretty sure it is a 6 cylinder gas motor because of the fact that it is running off liquid propane. Just a 6 cylinder turbo

Awesome!

@chevey69 I agree, it sounds awesome!

Subscribed to you btw. Thanks for sending me this link.

@36doublebeadlocked I see, but you don't usually drive like 30 mph in this kind of situation. That's why we put small rims and huge tires :). I actually allows to lower the tire pressure much more than usually. But yes, you may be right - they rather try to sprint up, not to successfully crawl to the top :)

@nicholas5674 It all depends on how you want to make it. You can take the low-mid range revs to try and strategically crawl things or you can take a full on pedal to the metal approach and try to bounce up it.

sweet vid dude, subscribin to ya, thanks for sending

@xnihpseht It is very possible that adjusting the air pressure could help drastically. The problem with going slow is that the turbo isn't spooling and giving him the power he needs to crawl. That is the big downside to a turbo buggy.

awesome

@tanner6112 From what I saw, it was a propane injected turbo motor.

if im not mistaken he is running a turbocharged 4.3L v6

@twiztid1fiddy Definitely. I love the way it sounds.

@nicholas5674 Were not talking about launching a car down a race track. This is offroad and on AXLE HILL at that. Completely different.

@scottsponaas It is! Huge adrenaline rush.

@MichaelWVaught it mostly depends on the angle and how much grip your getting. now you can say rev!

SIIIIIIIIICK! I wonder how many PSI he's running?

Very cool, it sounded laggy on the spool up though, for a set up like that I suspect having it produce boost right off idle with max boost not much further from idle would be best.

@MfalmeVTold Everyone has their own feel for needing lower tire pressure, etc. I agree that a lower tire pressure in this situation would have helped.

@MfalmeVTold sometimes when they hit stuff hard with low pressure the rocks pinch the tire to the inside of the rim and mess it up and pop the tire... thats one reason lol

@brandonbriggs I have no clue, it would be nice to know!

That is firkin sick bro but I think it needs a more aggressive tire

@0xXAllForNothingXx0 I could believe that. It is what it looks like.

@phin3s yea it is cool and I can appreciate the work put into it but I would use it for a totally different application

Gah damn man! What kind of boost is that thing running? And what motor?

@cj15941 Don't have a clue on the amount of boost he is pushing but I have heard it is a 4.3 Vortec running propane and turbo.

sounds like a jet engine lol

@phin3s I'm confused by the sound .. coz it looks like it depends on turbo to really spin the tires, but it certainly don't have the idling sound of any diesel engine ..

cool shit bud

I wonder how he likes the turbo, and the lag, if there is any...?

This thing sounds nasty

Why don't you lower tire pressure? Is this the strategy for bouncing more? It actually doesn't help while offroading. I mean - in my understanding of offroading... But lower pressure should always be helpful on slippery surfaces.

Too much air in the tires! He should own that hill. Almost every time I've gotten into trouble, it's been too much air in the tires to grip. It's always obvious on the review! It is a sick buggy though.

propane turbo?

sick buggy but those turbos just don't have the snap a like a gas/propane buggy has. Great vid tho :)

do you launch a car on full revs? no, you do it somewhere at mids, you need traction. at high speeds, how the hell you gonna get traction? explain it to me.

cummins engine .?

@A8vscRrabbit I really wish I know. I am trying to locate the owner to get this information from him.

@nicholas5674 Yes I can say rev. There are lots of factors that go into it, Angle, Terrain, Air pressure in tires, Type of tire etc. Sometimes, regardless of the angle of the incline and the terrain you might be able to crawl or sometimes you need the wheel speed and momentum. With that said....I am done stealing the thread. :)

Love the sound, but it'll do lots better in a higher gear. Not nearly enough wheel speed

@phin3s i believe hes got to much air in those tires for this type of DRY ass climb.

@phin3s PSI = all of them.

Speed push the traction button on the steering wheel.

get bucket tires, then you'll be up in notime, just youtube torfæra, you'll see what i mean ;)

@chaddeyisabeast me to

yea bad ass i think u need better tires or biggier ones

I feel like he went about everything wrong, turbo=high end power, you want low end grunt when doing anything off road so a supercharger would be ideal, tire pressure is too high, I feel like I would have better luck with a stock jeep actually crawling up it rather than trying to make a stupid sprint up it...if you want to go fast, build a road car, if you want to climb stuff, take your time, but thats just all my own opinion I spose

@nicholas5674 ---- I don't have to look anything up to see that there ISN"T enough wheel speed... I'm not dissn the mans ride I LIKE IT,,, But ya ain't crawing that and it needs to be in a HIGHER GEAR.... Wheel speed and momentum rule on that hill ROCK ON

ha ha sounds like a DIESEL!
