It'd be great to take a ride with these guys!!

i didnt mean to make a fat arguement about the weakness of youngsters nowadays. btw, elmo, i love sarcasm, that stuff gets old quicker that rabbits reproduce. anyway, the point is, personal responsibility...... a person should know when and when not to wear a helmet. if safety was the concern then EVERYONE should walk around with a helmet on ALL THE TIME because you never know when you could get hit by a car or slip and fall and hit your head.

Dakar doubles the speed in the desert they easily do 130mph in the dessert in much heavier vehicles meaning any impact is far greater because you are multiplying not adding.
Even if they do 80mph and Dakar does 100mph there is no comparison in impact force. even if the wieght was the same.
The kind of straps they are using in this rail buggy cost $150 a piece atleast where I shopped I know wtf I'm looking at. Ebay look like crappy weak little straps they are this wide/thick

One of my friends has a rail buggy thats my experience with that I've ridden+ driven + repaired them. They are friggen awesoem and wearing a helmet is stupid. Last year we built mini baja which isn't much slower since you have a 400lb vehicle with one passenger. I know what kinda straps those are because that was part of our requirements.
We actually were expected to go over piles of logs + fall off 5 and 6 foot concrete ledges and we did it all full throttle.

Dakar does double the speed in some stages during the race, but there are stages where the vehicles have to go over large and elevated terrain. so yes, they do about the same speed they were doing in this sandrail.
you don't know how to research do you?
-
what does that have to do with anything? well lets see, you're talking like you're some know-it-all of all things off-road, which by your blatent ignorance, you aren't.
this is a SANDRAIL. it is meant to do high speed runs, hence the powerful V8 sitting in the rear. how do you know its not going to do 80mph end over ends? how do you know they're not eBay crap? you never get a close-up of the harnesses.

Dakkar does about double the speed in this video and drive much heavier vehicles. So the physics of it are way the fuck different.
Before people start to comment retarded questions like "WHERES THE HELMET", These sand rails are built with a strong and wide roll cage that are very safe during a big crash. So to hell with the helmets.
