Well, i finally got the chance to pilot a 450hp Baja Race Car!!!
A good friend of mine built this thing from SCRATCH over the last 3 years. Its basically a SCORE Class 1 car with sand tires on it for the dunes!
Every single inch of this tube, aluminum sheeting, wiring, everything was done by hand over the last 3 years by one guy (27 years old mind you).
I was very fortunate to get about 30 minutes of seat time in and put the pedal down.
450hp + 2500lb Chassis + 22" Of Travel F&R = Silly Fast Whoop Soaking Beast!
Its been over 24 hours and i am still grinning ear to ear!
Even at speeds over 90mph in the bumps this thing handles likes its on a rail!
Here are some pics!
