Still failing stage 2 with the ADD RX ,, supplementing the wheels with junos was a bad idea maybe.. Balancing the friction is troublesome,  too little and it slips and slides everywhere barely under control and a little too much although it get s me moving usually results in being upside down shortly after,    65 tonne tank seems to not be a natural racer :)   So stuck on restarting and reruns of stage 1, was hoping to have at least caught up with you by now :)   Very respectable times you've posted too

 

Yes, Stage 2 is very dangerous to tanks ... love how your ADD RX is faster rolling down the mountain than driving down it :rolleyes:

And air bags? ... Brilliant

Here is a pic of the BHS race team on thw way to DAKAR,

Rail buggy amd Humvee  on lower trailer bed are not the best at racing but every fun to just drive.

The Traxus Truck and BAJA Truck are the real race Vehicles.

Thanks to McFlyever for the lease of the Stock semi-truck, and the mechs. @ BHS built the hauler so we could move them out to the race.

You feel free to take it back I was happy with 02 :P

 

Thanks, I will.

The numbers are not official but they make the car look Dakar style.

I installed Bandicam and made a testvideo (this is all new to me).

It's a bit long and starts boring but you can see the car performance.

Officially underway!  Sorry 44 class.. diesel electric 75 tons simply too heavy and complex.

for these situations, we roll back to 2014 with the original LL1001 class Landliners

Antennas snapped off at 61ms.. and nothing exploded

Good times :)

Nice train. A fear it may snap in half on stage 3. I like the Juno setup on the main engine

Very smart indeed,  how are they coupled together? new developments on the wheel front make multi wheel bogie units  a distinct possibility

1 8x8 + 3 4X4 all fully independent

shes a beautiful machine! :) glad to see some others take up the all wheels driven caterpillar.. conquerer of hills, slaughter or downgrades.. traction FTW :)

705s coupled with IR free docking washers, Ibeams and non steering rear wheels borrowed from the KSC1 class locomotives ive driven before, surprisingly flexable yet stable

She survived Stage 2 nicely ) Thanks

Waiting to see how she does with stage 3, looks a bit tame in comparison to 2.. ive taken this route before in early landliner trains on the elcano route
