This truck looks ******* badass!

Now I see why they need filters for the helmet air systems, can't imagine running in haboob-like conditions with window nets.

Little running footage at the 1:50 mark.

So sloooooow. lol. Anyone else think the front end looks like it was set up too soft? Just seems like its really diving into the dips.

Seems very slow to me, I assume its because its a first race or they dont want to break a prototype.....Does seem a little bouncy on the front end as well.

Judging by how much its dipping though the whoops they are clearly bad. And whoops are just not great for mortal production vehicles. That being said our TRD Pro 4 Runner would take those faster with less noticeable a bounce.

I think you guys are underestimating the size of those holes.

c'mon now. Go get behind the wheel of a gen 1 before making statements like this. Let alone one with 3.0's.

To go along with this, here's the other video the guy posted of the TT's. Just watch the suspension travel. The HM Racing Design's built Raptor is at the 12:38 mark.
