Just had to watch your video again this morning. Really looks like fun! It's
inspiring how well you have conceived the total purpose of your car. Kind of
like taking the blinders off to the "fun performance" aspect of owning a Supra.
Also allows you to to take full advantage of living in Au. We don't even have
"roads" like that around here, let alone having to watch out for sheep!
Do you have a camera mount in the car or did your navigator do the dual
mode operation? One other question, do you change your wheels and tires
for the dirt-gravel?
Thanks Fred, My bud was holding the camera but I do keep a suction mount in the car.
Nope don't change a thing just drive it as is everywhere, that was part of my design brief, it had to be a good allrounder.
If you look at some of the other "traction" vids you can see how much I had to fight to get the car to this point in the early days it was a joke and I actually stopped driving it at one stage as the total lack of traction above 3000 was dangerous.

The intake that you run also keeps the induction noise down I've noticed. I swear most of the sound in the vid sounded like the transmission...
That's more than likely the 2 Aeromotive pumps you can hear with the 2nd one kicking in under boost.

I thought the same thing, besides the rocks and stuff about all I hear is the whine of gears.
We have roads like that around here as well. I used to run em rally style back in the 80's. Its a lot of fun but my cars were never the technological marvel yours is.
I grew up playing on roads like these but as noted never in something so capable
