One of my all time favorite buggies. As seen in this video, it is powered by a Ram Jet 502.

Tim's crazyness and willingness to drive with all 502ci makes for some really cool videos.

I always liked this one. He has a real knack/feel for his rig and whatever it's pointed at, and this vid really shows that. 99% of people would have backed down after a couple of tries, he keeps picking away at it until the hill finally gives in.

I have watched many vids of the rig. I have wasted a lot of time at work watching that guy.I love that rig. I would pay some good money for a ride in that. That guy is badass!!
 
He apparently sold that rig or somethnig, did you see his new one in the 4wheel magazine? It's in with the "bama buggies" in alabama article. 14 bolts front and rear with a motown 454 small block. But the impressive part is all the tubework that someone did. It seems like they were putting in some tubes just for cosmetics. Check it out.

I think if I had enough money to not worry about braking stuff I would drive like that too. But I fix my own stuff. His buggy is built by some offroad shop. Nice ride though, and sweet videos, looks like so much fun.

That dude must be loaded with $$. He has inspired a whole new driving style in the Southeast, i.e., stand on the throttle until you get to the top of the hill, roll over or break down. There's plenty of guys down here doing just that in huge, high dollar, insane tube buggies. They call them hill climb buggies. When they stand on the throttle like that, they say they're :saweet:"letting it eat".
 
I did some searchnig and I found it, look here for more...

I think that driving style was around long before he was. :thumb:

I was laughing at the guy taking the video, he's always yelling the same, "woo-hooo!". :haha:
 
i thought the video was done after the wheel popped off.
nope. balls to the wall he goes. lol

you gotta be nuts to be that close filming when he's driving tho. i'd be about 15 feet away behind a tree.
 
He's had 2 buggies since he sold fat girl and is have another built right now.
 
Yep, jimmy smith is building him a buggy
 
Very cool rig, and driving style, Balls to the wall man.

I could have done without the narration by the camera guy....:sign4:already.
 
I don't think you could drive that buggy lightly. When it seemed he was just tapping the gas, the engine just wanted to go straight to the rev limiter. Love his style, and I like that. "Give her a gallon"
