this is a truggy. Trophy trucks have engines in the front! It is a Class 1 Unlimited without body panels, solid rear axle with arms up front. Took the panels off simply for testing, if they were on it'd still look pretty much the same!
This is a older video. It's the older Herman motorsports TT the Damon drove for a while. Basically based off of Robby's TT. I remember it a few years back at the offroad expo which was around the same time the video first posted.
I saw the title of this video and was going to comment pretty much the same thing...thank you for saving me the strain of typing as I was stabbed in the hand today.
this is a trophy truck without the body panels on, this truck did enter a race as shown it would be in class one because without the panels it is open wheeled, however it is not a buggy because it has a solid rear axel as opposed to cv's like buggys have, so calling it a class one is not really accurate and i doubt it will ever be entered as anything other than a trophy truck, thank you
He is hauling ass, at about 1/2 of 143 miles an hour. I was expecting a video of one on pavement with a tall set of gears going for a top speed record.
the class one's are similar to the trophy trucks but there ar a few diffrences. but if I remember class one's run around 650 hp I think not quite sure. but trophy tucks are built differently in the chassis which is why they race on their own.
What are you on about this setup has been used in trophy trucks for YEARS. Also KOH vehicles are all solid front and rear, Trophy Truck/Truggy is Independent front 4 Link Rear.
Porter class 1's are capable of 138 mph. Its on video in Primm. So 143 mph in a TT with a higher HP engine is completely realistic, yet still insane lol.
Not to mention that the world land speed record for a trophy truck is 136 mph. th-cam.com/video/FdJFDisM_80/w-d-xo.html. That's flat-land speeds too. Best of luck holding up hitting any of those holes at 146 mph.
KOH trucks (4400's) are NOT all solid front and rear. They can build any design they think will win. Look at Shannon Campbell and Robby Gordon's 4400's.
yeah you must not know much about KOH buggies or about trophy trucks..... a KOH buggy would never preform like this truck at high speed but it can crawl and go pretty dang fast also
Does this thing have a supercharger or turbos? Because 143 mph for a class 1 is to much. It wouldn't be able to run a Baja if it had turbos or something like that
Bitd for sure, not wholly sure on score but both allow the 2 fully unlimited vehicle classes ( tt & class1 ) to have forced induction on the race car, which means turbo, super, and prochargers
Love seeing that suspension working over the bumps. The car looks so stable, perfect set up.
To all saying it's not a trophy truck. That is what a trophy truck looks like with the body off.
Folkedahl Finally someone knows what there talking about (but it does kinda look like a ultra 4. Does it not?)
Thanks for not ruining the video with irritating crappy muzzak.

this is the most badass trophy truck, truggy whatever'n the fuck it is VIDEO ON TH-cam step it up people,
Damn it actually looks like the drive gets a comfortable ride in his seat.
This was build by Porter Racecars , Danny Porter & Billy Gasper. Not based off Robby's current or older TT's. However it is mid engine..
that active suspension has a rather cool car/engine duo attached to it... !!
That is so intense man!!!!! The drivers adrenalin must be just pumping !!!

Cameras have come so far in the last few years.
+BNASTYLW yeah they went from potato to go to hell.
it just floats over those bumps in the road!
Shit is insane but bad ass and looks like the best time ever
you know your having a good time when your tires are bouncing like a basketball!
It feels faster inside the car though, it's bitchin, that shit is gnarley, you don't even feel half of the bumps you hit

A class 1 Trophy Truck? Never heard of one of those. Just both of them.
'Murica. Well said!
the class one's are similar to the trophy trucks but there ar a few diffrences. but if I remember class one's run around 650 hp I think not quite sure. but trophy tucks are built differently in the chassis which is why they race on their own.
The angriest spider.
Sounds so sick! love the wfo tt sound

the shocks on it must be amazing....
glad i'm not the only one seeing this error !
shows exactly why running a Landrover based vehicle in the Dakar isn't the way to go...you need independent suspension to go FAST
0:47 how I feel going into finals week: Hold on tight, this might be a bumpy ride!
cameraman must be like oh shit at 0:27
Amazing what one can do with the right suspension! Bravo btw, you got some balls I'll give you that..
Soo... where do you get 150 mph rated off road tires? That was bad ass!
It's Herman motorsports TT. Built by porter racecars
Sounds like he was moving faster than the speed of sound in the first pass. :P
At what point in the vid was he going 143 mph?
Oh! It's just missing all the fiberglass. I got you :D
that is fookin ace lovin it.wana go
24 dudes got caught watching this by their wife.

truggy = drink coffee at 140mph without spilling it.
looks fun as hell
ADRENALINE !!!
god those 4.0 just eat up everything
then... we gotta build our own one :)
No camera men were hurt in the filming of this video.
Hard work but can't deny the results!!!
I stand corrected, looks like they switched over to A arms for all of the desert running?
A custom seat was built and installed with provisions for that condition...
Dear Santa...
super awesome, i want one
these shocks are from hell
i guess this guy just came up with a new classXD
daaaaat suuuuspension!!!!!
only one thing that thing has body panels on it. its basically a trophy truck but does not quite have the power.
The most fun you can have with your clothes on right there boy, I'll tell you what
Look up Herman motorsports trophy truck test. It's from 2008
I'm pretty sure that's a Truggy. Trophy truck suspension, open wheels in the back.
That looks so fun...
thats a race trake.. oh my
daaaat traaavel!
holy shit that things a beast
Desert raceing Porn .
awesome!!!!
Ohhhh Yeahhh!!!!
The Wheels? I'm sure you car has wheels right??? If you say no, I assume you live in Los Angeles :p
No it's not, Class 1 is Unlimited 4 wheel single and two seat vehicles, this is not a "buggy".
cool car
Nice Toy c:
Nice run, nice truck, but Im not buying the 143 mph
0:09 faster then the speed of sound! Lol
Its a trophy truck without the body panels mounted
0:20 suspension is just so PLUUUUSH
i wanna go for a ride! D: would be so scared but id do it anyways!! >:D
dat suspention
faster than it`s sound!
Wow
yeah pretty much resembles my car... minus everything
KOH trucks (4400's) are NOT all solid front and rear. They can build any design they think will win. Look at Shannon Campbell and Robby Gordon's 4400's.
Chuck Norris entered the Dakar?
143 kilometers per hour
with one of thses trucks go over a speed bump at 150 and you dont even fucking feel it
That's not a trophy-truck, it's a truggy like "keith Pratt" said! But cool vehicle still!
+Luke Tate do you know what a fiberglass body is? fuck off.
niceeeee
Daaaaaamn!
It's a trophy truck minus the body.
Yeah right 0:39 is atleast 120mph.
This is faster class 1 trophy truck
fuckin beast machine
haha yeah i suppose my car does have wheels. i drive a focus lol
would it be ok if i said ,,,FUCK YEAH hahahaha
but whats the difference between a prerunner and a short course? I dont get it :(
isnt that a sand rail?
nat a throphy truck?
yeah you must not know much about KOH buggies or about trophy trucks..... a
KOH buggy would never preform like this truck at high speed but it can crawl and go pretty dang fast also
that would be a truggy
holy shit
yeah i can see why that would be called class 1.
yeah very true bud lol
Does this thing have a supercharger or turbos? Because 143 mph for a class 1 is to much. It wouldn't be able to run a Baja if it had turbos or something like that
Bitd for sure, not wholly sure on score but both allow the 2 fully unlimited vehicle classes ( tt & class1 ) to have forced induction on the race car, which means turbo, super, and prochargers
why must these be so expensive
might have been 187 MPH
its a class 1 or a TT? to me it loos ike a C1
