Went out yesterday to Sand Mountain, NV with Jon Crowley (crowdog) of UTV Guide (http://www.utvguide.net) in his new rzr xp. Thing is a sports car to drive and has a throttle response like no other SXS I have ever driven. What impressed me the most was the fact the RZR was able to make it to the top of back side of Comp hill with two of us in it!!! I'm not light either, I weigh 235lbs. For those of you that have never been, the back side of comp hill by my understanding is longer and steeper then China wall. The engine is stock and only mods were the Paddle tires which are STU Blasters in the rear with smoothies up front from Fullerton Sand Sports. Tire are mounted on OMF beadlock wheels.

iphone video I took of Jon coming up the back side of comp hill. For the record, his commander was not able to make it up the back with only him in it.

What a fun day trip! Glad you were able to make it out Miguel.

I've got some in-car video as well. Going to take a bit to get that edited though.

Video is of just me. I came up with two of us in it (both 200 # guys), but the sand was wet.
