HST Shakedown

We know the pictures are old and we are getting the teasers later...but what do you all think about the vehicle not getting the proper shakdown before the DAKAR event?

I doubt this vehicle has ever even touched dirt.

It is not a video it is a radio interview with Rob Camron steel and a few others.

@MTG for the hint and @ Carl Abrams - Thanks! 140MPH in AZ with no nose, sounds like the vehicle did get a proper shakedown...great...

Yeah if you listen to the entire broadcast he talks about a lot of stuff and it sounds to me like he has put it through the ringer so hopefully they are good to go.
Had to laugh when he talked about how much Nassar spent taking those two POS buggies he had built. Like $12 million.
They lasted 3 days.

If its based on the SST then there's been a ton of hours put towards testing, etc. Not to worry here folks. With the addition of spare wheels / tires, fresh water, larger fuel tank etc we should be all good. Thumbs up for RG
