Rollover at RR
« on: July 30, 2009, 09:21:03 PM »
Here's a video of a guy rolling over at RR this past weekend. these guys are from down here in Miami, they run a shop called ROCO's. They call this thing the Iguana and he's the owner of the shop.

I know camera angles can be decieving, but it doesn't look like with that big a rig he needed to gun it?  Didn't look like there was anything he couldn't crawl over.

Is the guy ok?

Seems like that guy needs alot more seat time. {;-(} {:CH} {whack3} Even though that was a super fail I really got a kick out of the cherokee riding a pretty long wheelie.
Do Work Aka Moon Man. What you lack in technique make up in throttle! Or a set of cheater tires.

There was another video in front of that one where it seemed like he was trying to get up that spot for a good 20 minutes and then he just finally gunned it and flopped. I will try and post it tonight and maybe someone can figure out where they are. Tedder, in regards to needing more seat time, these guys belong to a group called Miami Crawlers and they go all over the US, Mexico and Venezuela, so they have plenty of seat time, they are just a little on the crazy side. Nobody was hurt and the jeep only ended up with a broken rear window.

I think he should have stayed in the skinny when the front tires came back down and steered down the hill.  {hihi}

Man it's not his fault.  He's never seen a hill before.  Used to flooring it and going flat!  ;D

Glad he's ok, but I didn't say he needed more seat time.  {toast}
