Enjoy some video from the endurance race at the competition. The first is the beginning of a grueling four hour endurance race with 70 some other cars...
Almost more boat then buggy, this thing loved the water!
Phew. After hours of laps on the track the machine pulls across the line after minor fixes no worst for wear, minus that right back fender there.

Here are a bunch of videos of the testing over the last week or so. They'll make you laugh, they'll make you cry...well maybe not cry, probably just laugh...and hopefully be at least a bit impressed, we were! (See the water ones!) Don't gloss over Aaron's one man band stand at the end either.
Around the arena she goes, where she stops, nobody knows!
All goes almost according to plan...almost.
Baptism by, well, water.
Amphibious cars of the 60s might make a comeback yet. Look at how the thing can even steer!

This marked the first successful run of the revamped buggy. It ran for an hour or so without (major) incident...not that one was expected! :D
Prep.
Push.
Pumped!
Ian lets the flag fly.
Rocky goes up the hill and then hits himself in the face with the steering wheel. Who was in charge of bolting that down anyway? :P
