Hi Riedy,
   Like Mick said its hard to look graceful getting in and out of the Revolt. but once i'm in it I find it quite comfortable . It is suprisingly roomy inside and I can drive it for hours and still walk when I get out.  :nw

Ill make a drive over as well. Its a 5 hr drive to the border for me but Id love to meet a member from your group!

Only reason I asked about rolling is this... When I was at LS a guy was demoing them and I was offered a drive. Enemy took it out and he is a good driver, He is always on the pin. He rolled it in the first 2 min. and he alsa expierenced that theharness boltspopped out when he rolled it. Didnt seem safe to me and I wasot about to be responsible for it. The cost of the machine also did not turn me on. I think maybe the guy didnt maintain it well. I heard of others rolling it that same day so they packed up and left due to embarrasment.

Its great to see someone owning a couple that can handle them. Keep up the good work and keep posting the pics. Video would be cool too  8)

unfortunately I was back at camp when this happened and didn't get to see it in person or catch it on video, but I do know that when it rolled it was at a slow speed on fairly flat ground and yes when he went to unbuckle the seat belt were no longer bolted to the chassis! I am not knocking yours but after that and knowing who is involved as a dealer I would never even consider one!  doug one of the guys that brought all 8 buggies to demo that was the dealer there was JAMES the former owner of sonic sand cars! if he set up that buggy then I know why it was falling apart and rolled!  rofl

Hi guys, long time no post ! Hope your all well. Thought I better give an update.
Well Ive had this revolt for almost 2 years now & have done almost 900 miles without missing a beat. Yes it has rolled over on the side 1 time but not by me, no damage as it happened on soft green grass. I performed a double front flip going way too quick over a jump, it wasnt pretty but it did land on the wheels & drove away, thankfully didnt do much damage.
Anyways heres some photo's of the latest upgrade - TURBO  running 15psi boost.
 Not that the revolt is underpowered in stock form. Maybe I can get it to flip over backwards now ! Ha Ha
Havnt ridden the car with turbo yet, still needs to be dyno tuned with AEM f/i controller

Hair dryers are always a good addition. What engine mods were done to accommodate the 15 PSI?
"There can be no divided allegiance here.  Any man who says he is an American,
but something else also, isn't an American at all.  We have room for but one
flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is
the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."
