Hi,this is in the quick time format.. I feel kind of bad because that KJ in the vid looks just like mine :cry: .. I believe it could be the drivers fault though..The path that he/she took was different from that of the TJ. Right before they start the hill you can see both the front and back end almost bottom out.I think they lost alot of speed and power form the start..

Theres alot of reasons that libby didnt make it. Looks like its stock. No lift, stock tires, it weighs alot more than that wrangler. prolly didnt air down. if it had bigger tires, lift, locker or lsd, it would of made it fine. Looks like it bottomed out too so it lost alot of speed.

sand sand... he could make it up with more speed an another run.

i ran with rubicons, scouts, cherokees in sand and was able to go over anything they could, some cases I could take more stuff... probably due to rear locker.

Man that looks insane! The libby looks so small! I would never want to do that though, wouldnt that sane get everywhere, if the smallest amount got into a cv or ball joint its all over. Would be fun though.

I saw a sticker once similar to my "it's a jeep thing you wouldn't understand" that read:

I'm assuming the more stuff was against the Cherokee and Scout? :wink:
