The Southern Rock Racing is one of the most famous racing events for the buggies like vehicles and this video is all about them. You are going to experience the hardest thing in the world, to race on the rocky track, tackle the hills and the mud under the tires of the car. And they are not even cars, the vehicles have roll cage bars so that the drivers will be protected because too much flips are done on these Southern Rock Racing races. Getting hurt is the hobby of the drivers and the mechanics are only waiting for the vehicles to return from the race and to fix them, a lot.
Having an all-wheel drive is a must for these vehicles because there is no way that they could finish the rocky track in just rear wheel drive. Most common are the cases where the front tires are up in the air and the rear ones have to do all the hard work. Having large tires is a must too for these Southern Rock Racing races and they need to have large crampons on them, so that they will have grip in the mud and take the vehicle out of there.
The engines that are fitted in these rigs are mean machines too. Sometimes these engines are more powerful than the drag racers, modified and tuned to perfection. And they need to be durable, if an engine stops working in the middle of the race the driver is doomed to failure.
Standing near the race track in the rock and play races is dangerous too because too much rocks are flying from under the tires. They are digging deep in the ground searching for a grip pad so that the vehicle will get launched in the track again. Pushing the buggies is common too, if the terrain is too wet then human power is needed.
