I Put 148 foot to the floor hard dune miles on the new pro-r two seater this weekend. Overall I’m impressed.
the good:
-power is plentiful and doesn’t stop pulling.
-suspension is unreal and great right out of the box.
-visibility is as good as it gets
-oh chit button is wicked cool
-interior is car like with easy to reach and use switches and ride command
The bad:
-power delivery is very linear and you don’t feel any hard hit.
[SIZE=11.5pt]-engine and clutch noise is pretty loud, just as bad as the x3. But I always wear custom earplug communication so that [/SIZE][SIZE=15.3333px]doesn't[/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt] really bother me. [/SIZE]
-noisy swaybars, they rack side to side and clunk.
-click six seat belts take some getting used to smashing your thighs, have to make sure you nutsac is properly placed. The shoulder harnesses are loose until you start bouncing around then tighten up.
Over all I love the car. I ran around in comfort mode and just used the oh chit button during rough g-outs. Track mode I used for whoops ant olds and down sand highway at 75mph. The anti dive and shock stiffening of the outside shocks during a turn make fast drifting corners a blast while never lifting a rear tire like the x3 does.
The Packard tires at 17psi just spun everywhere and once I ran them down to 10psi they hooked and worked like I expected them to. I duned With a guy who has the Packard tires comp cut and he hates them and they just fold back due to the rubber cut away.
[SIZE=11.5pt]I love they way this car dunes and its what i have been looking for in power and suspension wise. The Dynamix suspension cuts down on body roll, dive and still lets the car run soft to get through the chop and cross ruts easily. Then running hard it soaks up whoops and with the oh chit button to cover the g-outs [/SIZE][SIZE=15.3333px]I'm[/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt] golden! Well [/SIZE][SIZE=15.3333px]that's[/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt] until the stock springs start to sag. [/SIZE]
