Mudd-Ox and Max II video,s at river run atv park

[brushcutter]

Those are some awesome vids guys I'm kinda at a loss for words right now. One would expect the obvious outcome when Noel upgraded to the larger, more aggressive Mudbugs. I've experienced that myself by going from 22" rawhides to the 25" Mudbugs there was no comparison in performance between the two. Noels Max II is an awesome machine by any standard and it's abilities are right there on video for anyone to see. I am impressed by it's agility and one can see that it is an exceptionally nimble beast,really fun to watch. Banana Splits eat your heart out.

With that being said, I must say to you guys with the tracks: you know that separation, that feeling of superiority we've all enjoyed, the one between us aatvers and the quads, IMO you guys have now added another tier to the mudding hierarchy. You are as close to the real swamp buggies as one can get without actually owning one.

Oh yes, and Dave, you should be ashamed of yourself, just think about the next poor quad rider that falls off in the holes you were just playing around in.LOL I think that outburst will go something like this:

JEEZ!!! (as he hooks 2 of his buddies winchlines to this submerged quad)What the HAYELL was tha guy that TORE thet hole up driving...a frikin ABRUHAAMS TANK... Look at mah BIKE... And his buddies are saying: SEE thar Billy Bob ah tole ya not ta pile off in thet thar hole, I been heerin tales of some kinda swamp moster down around these parts just tarin up the place! "Yep! thet bees raght Jimmy Don" says Willie Earl (looking around with fear in his eyes) "hary up with them dang wanchlines Billy Bob...It's buginnin ta git dark... AN' that thang could show up agin jest anytime..."

Man wouldn't you love to be there to see that! I think you should name your OX"the quad trapper".

You know what you guys might consider. If it's not too much of a hassle, show your machine driving thru a mudhole without tracks, then with. Same mudhole, same machine, same driver. That would be the best way to show the differences for anyone wondering. What a helpful video that might be. I'm sure some people would appreciate it so much.

I have quite a bit of video just like this, I edited many situations just like this out of the video I posted. Robert and his wife are the best spokesman for the tracked vehicles ability since they drove both machines through several areas where their Argo was stuck. Robert and his wife were so impressed with the tracked bigfoot they bought it. As for driving, I followed that Tracked Bigfoot all day and never saw it come close to getting stuck in situations where the wheeled machines wouldn't move.

I bought 18" argo tracks with my response, when new in "98. I played in the rockies at 10,000 ft w/ snow, and in my home town's nearby cat tailed swamp ponds. Had a blast and the neighborhood kids did too. Sold the tracks to an Alaskan. So I didn't feel too bad being in an all track group ride at river run. Just expect me to bypass that looong swamp and meet you at the end next time, hehe. I also test drove a 52 ton army tank in the '70's, so don't feel sorry for me not having tracks
