I don't know what the big debate is about over jumping the stage. Can anyone here remember anything that RG has built that cannot withstand jumping?

Why even debate it? He will jump, just look at the HST and they way it swoops down to the back. Just like an airplane airfoil. This vehicle will FLY!.

I would agree with you on that pdx, not sure why that debate even started!

I know this is probably a mute point now but Albins has it posted on there FB page that the dyno video was putting their ST6 trans thru the gears. Just thought it was cool!

Just checked out their page, and no kidding. A lot of love. One of the their posts makes the statement that RG's new Dakar truck is 'reportedly' faster than his TT. Is that possible? ;-)

Also shows a pic of one of the Albins going to Dakar this year. Makes me wonder how many Dakar rigs use their units.
