GEN 1 Gen1 rollover on the beach.

[911 Crazy]

"Two pump chump" needs 5 whole seconds? Does he even have a Raptor yet?

WTF??? That is totally uncalled for.

This is what I imagine "Two Pump Chump" looks like. Geebus!

 

[911 Crazy]

High five the neighbor?

I'd say go out for tacos. Oh wait, already had some.

Oh God I hope he’s fixed and not reproducing.

Best one-liner this week!

Somebody already said it - when in doubt, gas out.

I regularly attend the TRR and offroad my Raptor with great exuberance. I've had it in some crazy sideways slides, even down hill, where I braced for rollover, but the truck never even hinted at it. I feel like it took special talent or total ignorance of the surface conditions to roll the truck like in these videos.

I’m far from an off-road expert, but I’ve done countless donuts at Pismo and other locations and never felt like the truck was going to roll. I understand the increased roll potential with the wheel at full lock, but still...

Truck was in 4wd, no amount of throttle was going to save it. Wet sand added to the issue by giving the truck even more traction. Being in 4wd is mostly what caused the truck to roll, otherwise it would've never had the traction to lift the inside front to get the party started.

Got it. So it's almost as if he pulled himself over with the front drive when he gained traction in the wet sand? I never run 4WD unless I'm going slow...only 2WD at-speed to prevent the CV's from binding and exploding with the high-speed articulation.

Yup, basically. To do donuts in 4wd you need an absolute surplus of HP. And you end up spinning cookies if you do it right, like monster trucks. But I still wouldn't do it in a truck. Hard to get out of them without flipping over.

I rolled a Chevy LUV when I was a young adult. It was in 4WD and It kinda climbed a short hill with the front tires and flipped over.
My brother and I climbed out the window and a Jeep showed up to right us...
Cost a bundle to repair...
Be safe out there...

Wet sand doesn't give like dry sand and it looked like he was in 4wd which is ridiculous for doughnuts. Saltwater never goes away completely. Poor truck.
