Here is the video of Mike on Rocker Knocker.

You can see the need for the strap in how tippy he gets.

Again, nice video!

I hate that obstacle.... it hurts my brain to stay square to the slope, on the throttle, and let slip drive you a car-length left on the lip, and then turn left hard across the hill into a certain roll stopped only by your tire sidewall in that notch (gotta hit that notch just right, too!). <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />
Great video, but as usual, you don't get the real feel of I'M-A-GONNA-DIE!!!!

Nice driving, Mike -- nice spotting, Corbin -- and nice camera-work, Todd.

I suspect that the real reason he did not roll had very little to do with spotting, or driving, or camera work.

I am more inclined to believe it was due to the four guys on the strap on his front left corner. Seemed that way to me anyway... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

hehe, that was a nice finish to the obstacle <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Nice vids Todd, thanks for posting them. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Could be in this case, but I have watched a few other rigs fire it up sans Tug Team. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> They were shorter wheelbase, tho. :shrug:

I'm liking the driving and spotting, but if you want to credit the tugging, I'm cool widdat. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
