Winners: First place: SkipperBing's Indiana Jones truck. Cool, sturdy, and full of fuel, this one is the best.
Second place: PureDeath's KMAZ truck with fuel. This upgrade really improved the original.
Third Place: Jmharg's X Gonna Give It To Ya!. There were better looking entries, but this was the first one to make it all the way around.
Congratulations one and all.


On the new island, there is a winding gravel road from Murphy Airport to Bandit Airport. This inspired me to creat the Off-Road Vehicle Challenge. Build your best off-roader to conquer the terrain. It doesnt actually have to go off-road, because on-road is tough enough. It must be able to climb hills and survive small falls. I would prefer it be fast, but slow will work. It should but does not have to be able to keep driving after it is flipped over. It does not have to even look like any vehile in particular, but i don't want just a chassis. Bonus points if it looks like a Jeep or a Land Rover or something like that. My first entry is this: the LL-OR.2. Yaw and roll both steer it. If one doesn't work, use the other. Roll is backwards if it gets flipped over. 0-3 activate the four VTOL engines. They do not all need to be on at once unless you are going uphill or you want to go fast. The deadline is next Sunday. First place gets three five-star ratings, second gets two, and third gets one, all in addition to your entry. Designs that explode easily will not win, and neither will designs that can't get up the first hill. Let's see what you got!

    @Sirstupid I had 46 notifications and it must have been one of the first 16 that I didn't get to see. Can you do it again?
