There is an AZOP race in the Cinders next weekend. Since we have at least 10 of our customers in the race we decided to head up there and do some testing to get a set up for them. If you are from another state or country, the Cinders is an area called "Sunset Crater" in Flagstaff Arizona, 2.5 hours north of us in Phoenix. It is an extinct volcano and you can pretty much drive anywhere you like through the forest on volcanic gravel and mountains. It is loaded with whoops from 1-2 ft high that never quit. Perfect torture test for our suspension systems. Its long so here is an outline for the good parts:
Dicing on the trails 0-8:00
Amazing view top of the crater 8:00-8:35
Drive down into a crater 8:45-10:30
Great view driving down the outside of the crater 10:40-11:30
Dicing on trails and roads again 12:00 to the end.
Excuse the squeaking. All the joints are worn out in this car. It has not been prepped since it won the SADR 150 in Puerto Penasco , Mexico last month. Hope you enjoy the video. See more videos at Shocktherapyst.com
