    Not selling the wagon any more.

    Need to make Wagon Attack 3.

    Seems like a good choice.
    Currently, youtube says that the video has had about 55 thousand views. What, its been out there for about 3 days?

    Some feedback:
    What is the coolest thing that has come out from this video for you so far?

    Niice, good choice on music. Mmm...the Justice remix of MGMT's Electric Feel.

    i spent some quality time on youtube last night. wagon attack got me hooked, bob probert vs tie domi kept me hooked. and mccarty vs lamieux made my night.

    but back to wagon attack 2, yeah, that was awesome.

    I teach high school math and my students are really getiting a kick out of the video getting popular on the internet.

    They are much more willing to work hard for a teacher they "like".

    Very Cool.

    Just about 24 hours later 55k views has grown to nearly 64k views. Yes, it really is growing.

    I saw the tishirt sales on the website, good angle.
    I think you should sell vinyl sheets of black skulls so that others can copy the "skulled out" exterior.

    How many hits do you need before Leno invites you to do his show? Nice job guys.

    Heh, Leno should add the wagon to his collection. Or let it run vs the battery car.

    If only that was the way Leno's show worked!
    I find the show impossible to watch. The stupid Ford commercial segment passed off as driving is crap.

    In reply to jrw1621:

    Leno already emailed me about purchasing the car.

    Not selling it because it is my ride to work.

    Would all of this 4WD magic fit in a 2nd gen CRX?

    Again, how strong is the trans and transfer case on these things? My old GTX had a crystal glass trans. Were these things the magically overbuilt golden egg? Designed for 3.5hp but happy with a gajillion???

    i just have to say wow......65k hits at one post and leno offering to buy it...with the change you could a buy a new car..then we would not have wagon attack 3 the attack of the subbys or evo's.....

  • splitime

    Dec. 14, 2009 7:11 p.m. splitime Reader

    Then it becomes Sellout 3 instead of Wagon Attack 3.

    Luke...My 3 year old digs cars. I occassionaly watch car videos with him on youtube, since we share a similiar maturity level and interest in cars. Today, he saw your wagon. He now thinks you're the coolest guy on the computer. .

    Dumb question, and would quite possibly have been answered, but what sort of camera/software did you use for that? That vid is FAR prettier than either of the Block Vids.

    Awesome vid.

    Makes me want to head down to the sand dunes this week.

    NO. The transfer case isn't really that strong WRT launching, but if you are doing lots of slipping or no launches they can hold up for a while with higher tq loads.

    I guess I could say that this (by a bit) is the most fragile of the L3 transmissions

    I was showing someone the video and came across "the making of the making of Wagon Attack" or The Cameras of Wagon Attack.

    The GRM car with the GRM video production.
    Again, well done guys!

    You guys suck. You think you're soooo cool. How dare you goof off in cars and film it thinking that someone might enjoy watching it. Pompous rich shiny happy people!
