This will never be popular in the USA.. Too many eco-nazis worried about spinning tires off road.. And the magical sand gnats that live underground. Or the birds that can't handle the noise or....
Ok,The Bobbysocks wrote the song...but that's not who is singing/perfoming behind this vid. The original Bobbysocks are 2 girls. I'd very much like to know who is the band singing in this vid.
Icelandic 4X4 trucks are awesome. Very very cool and requires plenty of skill to negotiate the truck through the soft looking for harderpack. It is always going to be exciting. Would watch this anyday over Formula One!
You want to know if a hummer can climb like a purpose built Formula truck? Well if you must know, no. For one youre running maybe 250 hp/300 ftibs of torque. These are more like 800-900 hp, i don't know how much torque. You have maybe 2ft of suspension travel, these double that at least. Other than that, youre gear ratio is wrong, axles can't stand up to the abuse. I could go on for days.
yeah, but how much of a grade can they climb? Also, look at the weight of the suzuki vs. the weight of a hummer. A lighter vehicle is going to be able to climb better with a higher ratio, than a heavyer one with the same ratio.
hey chevyman151991, I don't see you balls on the line for the adrenaline rush and to entertain people - so shut your hooked on phonics mouth and just enjoy the people who do this shit to make us happy, and make alot of wish we were there Dumbass !!!!!!!!
maybe is because of 2 factors: 1) America does not have so much mountains near big population centers, and 2) if they do, they protect them, so there are many trees in them(and rangers who look after them) The glaciers in the nordic countries where formula offroad is popular prevent trees from growing in these areas, so there is terrain to practice.
well they use quarry's when they come here to the UK, I'm sure there must be plenty of land that could be adapted in the USA, the stadium shows they put on for monster trucks and motocross could easily be modified for this.
The song is called La det svinge ("Let it swing"). It is sung by Bobbysocks a Norwegian pop duo, that won the Eurovision Song Contest 1985 with the song.
Well that may be true - but it shore would be fun to try :)

Short answer "A LOT!"
Most are running tuned small block Chevy 350 engines with 300-600 horses - then they have nitro (or two) for about 100 hundred more.
