some awsome video's
while perusing some of our french couterparts pictures and video's i saw these. these would make an awsome advertisement for what fun you can have with overlands!
dogb- you'de be surprised at what a stock ol can do
warning- the second video has explicit lyrics so turn down the volume for those that have to worry about such things

I can't play those. I keep getting an error message "The source filter for this file could not be loaded."

I don't think it's quite stock. Runs way too smooth for stock shocks, must have oil filled. Still, pretty cool, I was suprised with how well it handled the obstacles and rough terrain on stock tires.

Never mind. I found that even though these files are WMV (Windows Media...), they would only play right on my RealOne Player. Maybe something is set up wrong with my RealOne versus Windows Media Player? Anyway, cool vids!! I'd love to see some of the French Suspension Mod (FSM)...LOL

Those are, hands down, the coolest OL vidoes I have ever seen. My favorite part is in the 3rd video when its going in slow-mo as the Pajero is going through those bike tracks or something like that...you can see evey little bit of articulation in the suspension...makes me wanna go drive mine, as a matter of fact...i think i will

I'm with everyone, those are very cool OL videos. The beginning of the 3rd vid gave me quite a good laugh
RedRSX, same thing, I feel like driving my OL right now... though, its steering still hasn't been fixed yet

I wonder how they kept the camera up to speed, and so smooth.

i agree with stuZ,
the videography was not too bad... better than anything i've seen from kyosho... they should send those off to kyosho... maybe they could land a contract!

THe videos were way cool... The overland was climbing over some pretty big rocks. I like the root run too...

I'd say little from stock remains there... oil shocks for sure, not stock springs also, alu rims, steel polished everywhere and either the body is way lifted or the shocks... a stock overland doesn't flex that much, and that stock body covers the chassis pretty pretty low...
I did those kind of things at first (jumping on concrete, trials in the soil).
It's kinda funny but when you have to completely dissasemble it and stract the micro soil crystals nailed between the diferential planetaries teeth, electronics et al isn't funny anymore.
The chassis/gearboxes/shock mounts get very very cracked too.
But I agree, they'd make great ads.
