What's up guys and gals of Youtube!
From hydroplaning buggies to flying off-road cars let's have a look at these 7 Insane custom
off-road vehicles!
Starting this list off at number seven we have the Ultra Bouncer.
Creator and builder Tim Cameron went off the grid with this new buggy and got different
on a whole 'nother level.
First, it features a 632 cubic inch big block chevy that makes over 1,000 horsepower and
runs on race fuel.
It has a PTC Powerglide Transmission, SCS Straight drive transfer case, Dana 80 axles
with 2" 47 spline RCVs and runs Ouverson InnerC’s and Knuckles along with Ouverson Hubs.
It has Bilstein triple bypass shocks and coil carriers, Pac Springs, Custom built H1 wheels,
and 43" SX non-Sticky tires.
The Ultra Bouncer shocked the 4x4 world when Tim Cameron unveiled it.
Cameron always becomes one with his buggies and he's not afraid to drive it like he stole
it.
Of course, it wasn't long and someone wanted it worse than him, and it was sold to a guy
in West Virginia.
I'm not even gonna try to hide the fact that I would love to take this beast for a drive!!
Coming in at number six meet Wild Thing
a nitro-methane powered off-road motorcycle!
This monster of a bike takes off like a rocket ship slinging dirt and blowing exhaust flames
the whole way!
It ran the Northwest Louisiana Sand Drag Racing Track in less than three seconds.
That's 300 feet long for anyone wondering.
It's no surprise really when you take into account that the damned thing goes sixty feet
in 1.02 seconds.
And I'll remind you...that's on sand!
The engine is a supercharged 1500cc piece that is reported to make in the neighborhood
of 1200hp.
Let me point out that it is 1.5-liters of displacement, which is about 90 cubic inches.
Without the rider, the bike, trike or whatever you choose to call it weighs in a 995lbs,
so it literally has a backward power to weight ratio.
Those are numbers that should blow away even the most jaded horsepower junkie.
Bouncing into the number five spot we have the Ultimate Off-road Vehicle - The Russian
Kangaroo.
What do you do with a couple of inner tubes, two fans and a couple of rods?
Well, you build One of the most unique off-road vehicles on the planet.
We’ve seen plenty of wild things coming out of Russia, but this invention known as
the Kangaroo might be one of the wildest yet.
The Russian Kangaroo is made out of two large inner tubes that are covered with some protective
material to make sure that they will not go flat during use.
There are axles connecting the two wheels and a motor to give them power to move.
It's called the Russian Kangaroo because it is able to move through the snow without any
problems and the best thing that it can do is that it can jump too.
That’s why it is like a Kangaroo, because you can jump from one hill to another, and
because of the inner tubes that make the wheels it has a great suspension.
If you like it to be a smoother ride just release some air out of the tubes, or if you
want a bumpy ride just add some more air and there you go.
Russia...what will they think of next???
Number Four
The Mercedes Benz G63 AMG 6×6
Mercedes-Benz calls the G63 AMG 6x6 the “automotive declaration of independence.”
I'd say that seems about right.
This is an SUV that has five locking differentials, three transfer cases, six bead lock wheels,
and weighs nearly 9,000 pounds.
It is raw capability, distilled through a testosterone filter, inside a large, steel
riveted refrigerator box with two turbochargers strapped on the nose.
What that means is the G63 has a twin-turbocharged, 544-hp, 5.5-liter V-8 engine, which provides
catapult-like acceleration and unerring directional stability.
It's safe to say that this vehicle was born for extreme terrain.
The G63 is a big toy for the big boys, and a very expensive one, indeed.
With a price tag of $500,000 to 1 million dollars seeing this ride off the road is definitely
a rare and luxurious opportunity.
Tearing in at number three we have the Off-road 8×8 Go Kart!
Here’s something for all you gearheads!
An off-road 8×8 Go Kart!
This Go Kart is built for nothing but excitement and pure fun.
This killer off-road machine is ready for any crazy terrain you’re willing to throw
at it and I'm sure we can come up with something to challenge this machine.
The vehicle is awesome and I'm sure if it had a cage around it, you could do some pretty
epic things with it.
The vehicle is made from scratch and is not yet complete, but as you can see it can successfully
go crazy.
We don't have a lot of details on this one but we do know that the engine is made by
Fiat and is an all-wheel drive.
Go-Karts...I bet you never had one like this as a kid!
Sliding in at number two.
It doesn't have a name.
But...hydroplaning. on a river.
in Iceland, with an off-road buggy?!?
Whaaaaaaaat?
I'll also point out that it was the first time that anyone had measured someone driving
across water, and he did set a speed record in the process.
Driving an off-road buggy on any surface is a pretty awesome feeling, but according to
Icelandic formula off-road driver Gudbjørn Grimsson, when you drive it on water, it’s
an incredible feeling!
In this video we see Grimsson setting a world record with the first official speed measured
at 54 mph while hydro-planing.
This was done on a 1001 feet long river in an extreme Formula off-road race in Iceland!
Sooooo, check it Out!
Wondering how it works?
Well, the huge treads on the tires act like scoops on a paddle steamer and keep the buggy
skimming on top of the water.
But to maintain momentum, you need power.
Flying into the number one spot we have The Maverick Sports car.
This flying car, I.E., small aircraft, was designed for the world “beyond the roads”.
It is an easy-to-operate air and land craft that can be very useful for unapproachable
places.
Why?
Well, it gives the ability to fly to anyone who can afford it, and it is quite useful
in off-road areas.
The creators say it's extremely safe but in 2014 two people had minor injuries after a
Maverick that took off from Dunnellon airport in central Florida crashed back down and caught
fire.
The Marion County Sheriff's Office issued a statement posted to Facebook that read:
"The NTSB and FAA will not be responding because they do not recognize this as an aircraft."
Though reportedly, The flying car did have an FAA registry number.
The Maverick, which retails for $94,000, was designed by a nonprofit called the Indigenous
Peoples' Technology and Education Center.
Its mission is to "provide tools and technologies to frontier areas to meet their needs."
A flying car and off-road buggy all in one...Santa Claus is gonna have a whole fleet of these
bad boys!
