Thats funny, cause Overlander said that they have taken measure to ensure the car is sports car like on road but has excellent wheel travel off road. I will find the article and tell you what it says with regards to the suspension set up. Matt

Ok here it is, its optional so maybe the ones you saw didnt have it.

"Dynamic Response (standard on the blown V8 optional elsewhere), adds to the RRS's off road proficiency by decoupling the anti roll bars and providing wheel travel that even a live axle vehicle would like to call its own"

Pg 28 of the June edition of Overlander. Matt

able to scan and post at all Ace?

actually just had a look through the Moab post and found a couple shots showing okay travel so there must be an option... as i've also seen other photos which i can't currently find, and the Top Gear video with the Tank showing no travel at all.

This one does though

The RRS is basically the same as a D3. That is same air suspension, drive train, chassis and engine are basically the setup. So with the decoupling of the antiroll bar option it should have similar wheel travel as the D3.

If you have broadband, try this 37Mb file from Top Gear - the RR Sport vs a Challenger tank on Salisbury Plain. Forget it if you have dialup.

I wish we had Top Gear on Free to Air TV in Oz.
