24 Hell And Back (Part 3)Final

[@josiewayne6004]

very few of us that watch you regularly had little doubt of your offroad skills....this just reaffirms how good you really are

[@secret5.]

The buggy as well. Man did it do great!

[@mat2ca578]

Great team effort to bring us this video.

[@mijour]

Should have made Rory do the trail in reverse to give everyone else a fighting chance

[@brucea822]

Hahahahaha I was thinking the same thing 😂😂

or atleast pull a trailer 😂

Rory, Shawn and Mike, thanks for all the help getting our pile through the trail😂 you guys are super fun to hang out with and Rory's driving blew us all away. Nice vid boys👍🏼

[@javman03]

After watching all the installments of this epic event on multiple channels, here is an overview of what I've learned. 1) Rory put on an absolute clinic. 2) Paul showed amazing driving skill with his long wheelbase, "small" tire, low-ish ground clearance vehicle 3) Rudy needs an engine upgrade 4) Ian is all show... 5) Its tremendously entertaining watching a full race spec jeep going up a gnarly wheeling trail!

[@docdruskithetexican8846]

Foreeeeaaal though. You nailed that! Bet we’re in the same fan club😉

[@Psyco913]

I feel like Rudy needs gears more than anything else, but I agree with the rest.

[@martycarlson4503]

Your probably right. I could be wrong but I think Rory is running a Jeep 4.0L​ like Rudy.@Psyco913

[@HIllCarver]

Top comment. Agree whole heartedly

[@bripslag]

I agree with @javman03 for the most part, but I'm not a fan of a race rig or rock hopper going up a relatively untouched trail like that. They tore up too much shit, IMO. The high horsepower rigs belong at a place like KOH, not on a trail like this.

[@gregbloch80]

I appreciate how Rory can just crawl over the stuff, no drama, no spinning tires or breaking parts. It takes skill to make it look easy.

[@josiewayne6004]

Ian taking the self checkout grocery store lines is killing me...all these yrs i thought he was "the tv offroad guy"..so much for that

[@Kiki-Kauai]

Yea, pretty sure he made a reputation for himself that won’t soon be forgotten. And it has little to do with off road anything. 😉

[@toddwilliams5905]

The hair guy

[@bripslag]

He annoyed the shit out of me on the OnX Offroad Challenge. Trying way to hard to be a "Reality TV" personality. I watch channels like Trail Mater and Fab Rats to get away from that crap.

[@darrellnichter9894]

Mike at the end...walked the whole thing in 11 minutes! To be there in person would be epic!

[@maxironpaw]

Doze guyz spinning tires, revving engines, throwing dirt and rocks - they're like the dudes drinking Colt 45 from a brown paper bag. Those idling up the rocks all gentleman-like - they're sipping fine coffee from fine china - and Rory even has his pinky out.

[@Johnat709]

Rory, Shawn, Mike, Paul, and Rudy.....I enjoy the hell out of watching you Boys.

[@zekesmith9638]

your livestream cracked me up guys!!!! fing awesome job!

[@brockryan3405]

I enjoyed the hell out of that too! The "I hate Casey Ladelle" shirt seemed to go over so many heads though. Kinda Casey's plan though :)

[@weberlori5239]

Loved watching Rory handle the trail. Alway cool, collected, not smashing pedal to the floor. Analyzing what others were doing and which line will work for the buggy. Amazed how you found way in darkness. Another reason I love watching you do recoveries. Beautiful scenery, and you educate viewer about trails.

[@kenskens69]

You really like ass in thus 24h , question any particular reason way you run 15psi ,

[@Yota331]

This, no other words. Yup

[@mauipin]

Rory, you are GOD when it comes to picking the right line. I watched that climb where everyone chose to winch, not you, you and Paul made it look easy. More with less and a some brains, you showed up those high dollar builds. Congratulations on a successful 24hr, you ROCK!

[@brockryan3405]

Hellz yeah. Brains win over $$ and gas pedal. Paul is so smart but doesn't do it as much as Rory. Paul is willing to wreck shit for the thrills while Rory has so much more patience. I watched Paul use his rocksliders (in his Taco) to overcome an obstacle, with his family on board, knowing his wheel base was not matched to the task. He laughed at the noise while they had no idea of his plan. My man crush is split.

[@marcposey6836]

[@steve0inmontana811]

Shawn , Mike , and Rory, you guys are the best. Neat to see friendship like you guys are. Great filming Mike.

[@RMFH450]

I remember being like 12 years old watching "Extreme 4x4" on TV thinking this was the best show ever...now I'm 33 and watching dude put on a pink helmet as Rory walks the trail before him lol 🤣 Trail Mater is by far better channel/content than what I seen in my childhood on TV

[@BigWheelFab]

I like Rory because he’s a no BS kind of guy.

I can't imagine what it must of felt like be a 24 Hell and Back participant and see a buggy that cost a fraction of your own rig not only out perform you but smash the whole course effortlessly. It just goes to show that true skill can't be bought. Great job Rory, Mike and Shawn!

[@Patrick.Weightman]

Mike and Shawn are an A1 crew to have

[@Myhandle306]

Best driver of the competition. And with the most underestimated vehicle.

[@brockryan3405]

I don't think the vehicle is as important as that Jedi driving it! He just has a super human vision of the rocks.

[@kennyFF033]

The way Rory drives that buggie, he might as well be riding a geco. Thanks Trail Mater team and everyone for going through Hell to bring the fans incredible content. God Bless, be safe and have fun!

[@BradlyLittlejohn]

You rocked it. I personally think you was the best driver this year in the 24 hour

[@brockryan3405]

I agree. He is the best. He has some special ability to feel the environment. I accuse him of being the first Earthbased Jedi.

[@pattkinder612]

My favorite clip from all the videos was you stating that you had less money in your whole buggy than the others had in their axles...🤣 You proved that the most important part is the nut behind the wheel.

[@KensHobbies409]

I can see as to why it's called 24 Hell & Beck! That is absolutely crazy.

[@Kiki-Kauai]

No doubt about how Rory was gonna do and the helping hand he, Sean & Mike always are to everyone. Rory’s the guy you want on anything like this. Paul will always give it his all even tho he had small tires for this & had an Impressive finish. Feel pretty bad for all the damage to Rudy’s rig. Loved what he said about being invited because they felt he could do it. Hello Ian... who on the other hand seemed to have an attitude from jump & even tho he didn’t really drive the obstacles & only spouted his sponsors. Left a bad taste but nothing lost actually as he’s always come off that way to me. The wild card really showed him up. lol Love the Peck Brothers, glad they were there. Overall I loved this 24 Hell n Back. Rory has set a new standard for all seasons to come!

[@bripslag]

Ian is too much show and not nearly enough go for my tastes. (And I don't really like his show part, either.)

[@tombarger2599]

Best quote of the whole series. "I can make that in my stock XJ or Wrangler. Ah NO YOU CAN'T" 🤣🤣🤣

[@knockharder3554]

Recovery Master Yoda dominated. Loved seeing the competition and the skills

[@Bryanja81]

Rory, you killed it. Marvin was scratching his head because nothing they came up with could stop you. That was awesome. Give yourself more credit BTW. You are an awesome driver and you build your equipment with a purpose. To get the job done!

[@auldman]

I watched the main KZbin channel for this challenge and I was mighty impressed with Rory’s driving skills. His quiet and considered style is exemplary - the scores demonstrate the level of his driving. Paul was very nearly as good, whereas Ian…. well being generous, he wasn’t.

[@Fix_It_Again_Tony]

You are so right about Rory's style. I really appreciate the uncommon maturity he demonstrates. I also agree Paul had a really good 24 hours.

This series has been great! Let me be the first to say you guys rock! Have fun, be safe!

[@arteepee]

Rory just seems to become part of the rig and just "feels" the trail. A true master at work ably assisted by Mike and Shawn. Respect is due! :-) Richard (UK)

[@Chapter13_jku]

Extremely impressed by your offroad capabilities. You out did everyone with a bad transmission. Great job, Rory.

What stick in my mind in all the videos I have watched in this event is how you guys were everywhere, always with a helping hand. Awesome driving, awesome attitude. Thanks guys!

That last obstacle after 23 hours without sleep was just the kicker. What a brutal and awesome event! 😎🤟

[@kenmurray4232]

Crazy, just plain crazy trail. Awesome job Rory. Definitely pays to know your rig & trust your spotters. Mike & Shawn great camera work as well as spotting. Looks like everybody had fun doing what you enjoy. Thanks for taking us along.

[@kevinkirk3918]

Very sad rear steering could not beat a straight axle!!!😅😅😅 . Great job everyone!!!!

[@khb3892]

Very cool to watch Rory master the trail for himself and spotting the lucky that earns his knowledge. Mike and Sean as always have his back and helping others. Thanks Trailmater team for another quality video.

[@pmkstudios]

Rory in live stream: "I don't exercise" Rory on the weekend - climbing rocks like a mountain goat tossing boulders like pebbles. I hate to tell you this Rory but that stuff is one of the hardest exercises there is. Edumataining as always fellas! Some day YT will figure out a 45 min insert is not an ad (not your fault I know)

[@frankhage1734]

This performance by Rory has affirmed my decision to deal with vehicle stuck situations like he does. I no longer "give it the beans" and hope for the best. I "look for traction" and use the torque of the engine to pull me up the hill. Rory is both a great educator and teacher! His staff is also first rate, setting a very high bar for video production.

[@brockryan3405]

I will say it again. Rory is the first Earthling to be a Jedi. He can mechanically feel and see, IN HIS MIND, what his eyes cannot. That is why TrailMater is geared exactly to stall out when it does...when the force needed is too much for the current line being taken. He then knows to back off and try a little different approach. Notice that sometimes he will stop and just heat up his tires to get the grip needed and then succeed? That is super human. He didn't win the Off-Road games because his technical approach wasn't a crowd pleaser. Merlin is a crowd pleaser and I appreciate that too.

[@ronwatson4135]

*The Three Amigos Kicked Some Ass and Took Some Names. Great Job Lads !*

[@Fix_It_Again_Tony]

Just like Tom Petty said, the waiting is the hardest part. You guys did phenomenal out there. You are the reference. Others judge their off road driving skill by comparing themselves to Rory. A fella's gonna throw back a cold snack and enjoy the show.

I said it on Flex Rocks and Rollovers and I’ll say it again Rory you and the Trail Mater killed it. I love the fact that everyone came together and helped each other out no matter where you were on the trail.

I loved seeing you guys' take of the whole event. Rory definitely crushed this trail. I agree with Rory's assessment of Rudy and the Peck Brothers, and I'd add Paul to that group. The wildcard rookie guy did well, too. Marvin's rig seemed a little too nice to have on that particular trail, and the heavy-footed horsepower guys were doing more harm than good to the hillside. And I think Ian was simply outclassed by the rest of the group.
