Clayton Hollingsworth stepped outside the box in 2017 and debuted the OutLaw. The OutLaw is a fully independent suspension Rock Bouncer front and rear and features a SuperCharged LS Engine. This monster made short work of a lot of hills this year and won several event. We compiled all of our videos of this beast into one for you guys to enjoy!

[@PUNCHARD800ftlb]

the engineering and thoughts and balls behind such an extreme beast, like how the shafts and joints hold up to that abuse in a ifs/irs setup blows my mind

[@BulletmanDoom]

I don't want to watch the other bouncers anymore. This thing is so entertaining as well as being capable.

[@paganposse4678]

Clayton has built the next generation of bouncers. Brilliant design and execution! Mr. Hollingsworth please keep designing and building, your creativity is appreciated, thank you Sir.

[@Schuylker]

Thanks Cole, another great section of bouncer history. On film thanks to you...

[@MadRam11]

Schuylker thanks I appreciate it

[@tombig4011]

This is by far the most bad ass off road vehicle ever built

[@neonightkiller]

Maybe the best buggy...

[@ap1s2k78]

Easily.

[@curtism2095]

He definitely did his homework before built that badass buggy

[@angsaexc7170]

Jos iku bos

[@jameslyons1978]

I know little about your sport but I love this creation. What a beast!

[@kingstonarlo7110]

You prolly dont give a shit but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost my account password. I would love any help you can offer me

[@jamaljude4084]

@Kingston Arlo instablaster :)

[@kingstonarlo7110]

@Jamal Jude thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im trying it out atm. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@kingstonarlo7110]

@Jamal Jude It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thanks so much you really help me out !

[@jamaljude4084]

@Kingston Arlo you are welcome :D

[@jerrylong381]

I started watching this sport this past spring, about the time the Outlaw started running well I guess, and while I always enjoy seeing Tim Cammaron, the Bacons, Jake Burkey, and just about everyone else, I have found myself rooting for Clayton. From what I've read, the IFS/IRS setup has been tried by others and it didn't hold up to the abuse. Well it seems that Clayton has figured some things out. And with more seat time, I think he will learn to control that beast a little better. I would bet we see some copies show up next season.

[@wowchampyon]

looking at this rig it seems as though he took an R/C car and decided to build it in real life. Engine is where the battery pack would sit and he is sitting in the place of the electric motor.

[@kaizer9455]

Looks like this guy's setting a new kind of standard for that sport. Pretty damn cool. Good for him

[@TheNolesfan94]

Out of all the videos I’ve seen, this one has been the outperformer. And I bet that mid mounted engine has to deal a lot with its performance

[@Brad772006]

I remember when this beast first showed up everyone was curious how it would hold up. Think it has done pretty good. Clayton is definitely not afraid of using the go go pedal.

[@MadRam11]

Lord Motorsports I agree man, I had my doubts for sure but he proved it!

[@tinytattoomike7943]

He definitely kicked it up a few notches

[@willj3ff]

I love those closeups. I’ve been looking for a good, in-depth, close up view of how over built this machine is. Virtually indestructible. Amazing.

[@MadRam11]

Glad it was helpful!

[@grandprismatic]

Hollingsworth, thank you for being a badass and putting on a sweet show everytime.

[@fabiokrause4136]

It's a marvel of engineering! Congratulations to the creators.

[@masaharumorimoto4761]

AWESOME!!! I love Outlaw, such a beast!!!

[@trevorstellrecht6116]

Incredible machine and some great driving too.

[@Codesempire]

Me and my boys sure enjoyed watching this one! Awesome action! Thumbs up!

[@MadRam11]

CodesEmpire thanks I appreciate it

[@grandprismatic]

Outlaw never disappoints... Thanks Cole!

[@rcWizzard]

Thanks for showing that Beast up close. Absolutely Awesome!!!

[@MadRam11]

Thanks for watching

[@SpenserRoger]

Hey thanks Cole for this compilation. Really pulled it together too with all this great documentation work. You need to put together a patreon, so some of us can fullfil our need to reciprocate you for this awesome entertainment. Would love to see you get more extensive gear. We want boom cams and in cameras and hill cams and multi drone 360 VR! lol. Also congratulations to Outlaw and his driver. Absolutely hands down the greatest rock bouncer to date. I also was thinking there is much more development potential with independent suspension that could be tried in a rock bouncer. For example, if you built the suspension to articulate from the outside you could have a metal cage protecting the suspension and wheels from rolls, etc. Or you could make the suspension articulate from both the inside and outside, like a box structure around the wheel. It would be indestructible then. You could even go as far as mounting tall enough tires for it to run upside-down... make it sprung both ways and you could literally continue driving after a flip or roll. Anyways keep always being a little different man like you said. Btw can I ask why the new buggy went to solid rear? Do you think it will affect handling?

[@brandonquenneville7330]

THIS IS THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF OFF ROAD.... TY MAD

[@bigrob966]

Gorgeous piece of engineering

[@privatemail9312]

My Favorit Bugy. Crazy Car and Crazy Driver!

[@mynameisntleo]

I never thought about the comparison until I just saw the recap of the 4-wide racing event. But the Outlaw is almost like a trophy truck or Baja 1000 rig, minus the solid rear axle. It soaks up all the whoops and dips, and does great on the rock bouncing, but I think the variable of not having a solid axle that reacts/bounces the same every time makes it more difficult to get a hold and feel in that control. All that said, Clayton frickin killed it all season in that beast. Great job filming it all bro.

[@ridermak4111]

“Thinking outside the box” indeed !! TOUGH independent suspension buying more contact time w/ground. Seat / engine location makes sense for several reasons. Clayton, you may call yourself odd, but that is one BADASS CRITTER !! 😎

[@ryanhostetter6562]

That rig is BAD ASS!

[@waynewilliams5353]

And people laugh about me making my IFS and IRS lifted Silverado project. I tell everyone that a well built fully independent will end straight axle ideology

[@meesp3715]

That's a badass ride bro

[@darthluke655]

In 2018: “The First Vehicle to Climb Mt. Everest!”

[@immentlyill]

that thing is one hell of a unit

[@mdocod]

It's basically a 1000HP top-soil redistribution device. Man that thing sends some earth flying!

[@atozfabrication]

Such an amazing machine! Has the owner considered taller front axle gears to keep the front pulling straighter? Also, a good shock tuning would work wonders on this thing.

[@jamesmerritt4315]

good video matt shows bad ass it is

[@RikterZilla]

Awesome!

[@timbulb]

INsanely good driving too.

[@jeffyoung2089]

That is one bad Machine! Great Videos Cole good work!

[@MadRam11]

jeff young thanks

[@johnyr5931]

Hi from the UK ..GOD BLESS AMERICA..✌

[@travishall9205]

Lol Bad ma'am ma jamma never gets old

[@Josh_D03]

What an awesome machine. Love how he kept the center of gravity so low.. Alot of buggies look so top/tip heavy his bieng so low it just hugs the ground and goes lol

[@christyler1817]

Also the buggy is balanced not front heavy not back healy like alot of bouncer with independent ifs irs it makes it a beast the only thing i think it could use would be and extra 200 hp

[@jman6030]

Sure did a good job building that monster..looks like a blast 😁done alot of 4x4 N'(lol)but that would be awesome!! great stuff

[@vulpes122]

more bad ass than the cars in mad max!

[@RastaRider]

Unstoppable!

[@tansawat6013]

เยี่ยมยอด:-)

[@bobcarson4847]

very nice I like build one -some day

[@momentoffaith2735]

I think Tim Cameron should build another 4 wheel independent buggy and race both buggies through next year and see which one he likes the best

[@bobcarson4847]

very cool

[@user-wy4tr8ic4q]

Классная тачка! Моя любимая в этой серии. :)

[@truthspace5525]

I like how he made an evil face out of the winch area. LOL.

[@halffastguy8024]

I just stumbled upon this sport last night on KZbin; what is it called? I love the balls to the wall attitude!! I'm mostly a two wheeled fan, but this is freaking gnarly!

[@christyler1817]

Its called a rock bouncer i guess you could call it rock racing i think

[@Bufflalo121]

Low point of gravity allows it to hammer up them steep slops where others usually flip backward... good design, makes sense too when you see it dig...wonder where he got the idea for a design like this... crazy but it works great... BB

[@brandonframpton7656]

I've been watching MadRam's vids for years. My first was the Fat Girl..and Tim has been my favorite since. ...This Outlaw is BADASS!! Clayton is Tim's pissed off evil twin \,,,/

[@MadRam11]

Thanks for watching, I appreciate it

[@JarcodeRover]

I want a RC Outlaw.. :D

[@bradymoritz]

surprising how much independent suspension seems to improve handling

[@user-mv6de3sc8g]

Incredible performance. I want to know the architect of this machine. Especially about the design of suspension geometry.

[@MadRam11]

Clayton Hollingsworth built it from scratch

[@user-mv6de3sc8g]

Thank you. I think Mr. Clayton Hollingsworth is a genius.

[@mzeusk13]

Mr Clayton has taken engineering on the next level. Mr Clayton is #MAGA

[@glennschock973]

it is like a fire breathing dragon. Very impressive!

[@hunterkurpakus9715]

you should try out Waal forces a monster truck

[@Nitrooxiderc]

sick buggy

[@brandonquenneville7330]

THESE QUADS ARE INSANE .... power house wheelers

[@npsit1]

I'm trying to figure out why the steering joints are not in the same plane as the suspension joints... When it goes over any bump or gets air, the wheels are toed in and out.. That doesn't look very safe.

[@NoTraceFound]

Is there any good reason beyond ruggedness for going fixed axle on the new build? Can't figure that it would perform better in the terrain.

[@randalfalker7364]

I assume its what people are used to driving... side they probably all started crawling in straight axles rigs and people have brakes IS buggies in the past

[@codyrhodes8803]

More rock bouncer drivers should rock tractor tires in the rear like Outlaw. It CLEARLY get the job done🤘🤘 this guy rules!

[@fraserhenderson7839]

It looks dangerous to be near this thing when it's working, the landscape will never be the same. I think it has the lowest CG of anything in the class together with excellent suspension compliance, it just makes room for the obstacles.

[@MadRam11]

Fraser Henderson it’s Violent for sure and those rear tires are straight up nasty

[@leroybrown9014]

speaking of nasty rear tires. wha happened to that one buggy with bolts in the rear tires? was that just for fun one day?

[@MadRam11]

Leroy Brown those bolted tires aren’t allowed at most places.

[@agostinaghezzi1183]

Invicto 3 latino

[@TheVIPER2140]

огонь!

[@howardtyson79]

I remember back 10 to 12 years ago i seen a rock crawler with ifs/irs that walker evans had it was a s10 they called rock spider

[@MadRam11]

yep I remember it

[@dangamble8517]

Sure is violent when it's held wide open. Damn good rig

[@MadRam11]

oh yeah those rear tires hook hard

[@stumpy0227]

I wonder what these monsters would do, ifn they took those wicked dirt tires off, strapped some drag slicks on 'em, and ran 'em a quarter-mile? I'd pay good money to go see that in person!!!!

[@timmensch3601]

There slow lol

[@gregparrott]

Yet another great MadRam video! I've always wondered if the added weight and complexity of a fully independent suspension would prove to be a competitive advantage and actually last long enough. This vehicle answered the question. I gotta' ask - who makes the IFS/IRS differentials?

[@MadRam11]

Thanks, the center sections are Currie 9" housing and the suspension is all home made

[@gregparrott]

Thanks for the reply. At 3:05, I saw what appeared to be the bolt pattern used on Ford 9" rears, where the entire ring and pinion assembly can be removed as one unit (aka 'Pumpkin') from the housing. What most intrigues me is how to minimize the width between the CV joints. Some additional bearings are needed to support the loads imposed at the CV joints. Currie did a great job. Also, kudos to Mr. Hollingsworth for building a suspension robust enough to handle both the track and the number of rolls he took, yet drove away, apparently undamaged.

[@natek6113]

It's mostly the independent front and rear suspension. Watch all the other straight axle bouncers. Ever try hill climbing between older broncos (independent front) or blazers (straight front axle)? no comparison

[@bobcarson4847]

yes

[@quantum7401]

+Get up there.... Yea!!!

[@snek9353]

Not a big fan of this sport, but damn that sucker is impressive. Really F'n curious on the details of how it's holding up. What he's using for outers/spindles/axles, etc.

[@MadRam11]

uses RCV axles

[@ENDRFNBND]

Only rock bouncer i like to watch now.

[@BAJAFLATOUT]

Wow imagine if he got rid of the front axel from towing in while on the power how it would handle then! Awesome machine

[@SpenserRoger]

BAJAFLATOUT!! He probably has the toe set like that to make it turn in quicker.

[@BAJAFLATOUT]

SpenserRoger Yeah I get that for climbing but I suppose that's what it's built for and not flatout straight lines! But fuck the things a animal hey!

[@jeramiebentley4054]

The game has changed

[@theninja001]

It seems like it has some serious toe-in and some torque-steer. Maybe it is set up this way on purpose? I'm sure there is some effect from have the engine mounted to one side.

[@MadRam11]

yeah it toes in hard, not sure if it is on purpose or not.

[@gregparrott]

Here is one possible reason why the tie rods are a shorter length than the A-arms, and consequently, causing toe-in/ bump steer. If you're riding a motorcycle and lean to one side, the wheel carves a turn in the direction you're leaning without actually turning the handlebars. The same thing applies when a car has launched, is partially airborne, but leaning so only one side momentarily has ground contact (or at least solid ground contact). Adding some toe-in would partially compensate for this. The tie rod geometry also influences the Ackermann angles when steering, although the Ackermann effect is normally only important on surfaces with good traction (i.e. pavement). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_steering_geometry

[@baconboy1421]

when i saw that at dirt nasty it climed everything

[@toddclark332]

Clayton bad buggy

[@stocklitv1371]

epic

[@mealex303]

I need a quarter scale outlaw rc beast with twin 50cc motors init and onboard camera with vr glasses & wheel for controller.

[@kennedyann16]

Alex piv I wonder if there was any influence from rc cars I myself see a lot

[@PaulHollandWheels]

That thing could climb the log slide at the Lake of the Ozarks.

[@KurtElliott]

Dang, how much horsepower those things have?!? has to be at least 800 HP! is the secret to driving them: close your eyes and cross your fingers? that's a lot of dust! they remind me of these gas remote control cars I seen in the 80's!

[@MadRam11]

Yes most of them make 800 Horsepower or more

[@simondurana7323]

best

[@peterland2824]

Is there a reason that other rock-bouncers don't adopt this asymmetrical driver/engine setup? It's obvious that it has a lower center of gravity which is central to making a good rock-bouncer. All of the other vehicles look like skyscrapers in comparison.

[@snakebite2841]

👍👍💯

[@blackwingvisuals5017]

Arachnid suspension will win every time!!! Plus a mid mount motor! !!!

[@bobcarson4847]

wow

[@vincefairleigh6899]

I’d like to see this truck in king of the hammers, would it be tough enough?

[@MadRam11]

Vince Fairleigh not really designed for long races.

[@vincefairleigh6899]

What kind of mods would it need for a longer race? Larger gas tank? This is an awesome rig!

[@88honda4me]

only true fans would take a rock to the face, good thing the crowd was small

[@Tmaxxnc]

i cant be the only one that wants to see outlaw in the KOTH

[@MadRam11]

It wouldn't do well, it is not made for long races, plus it wouldn't pass tech

[@Tmaxxnc]

MadRam11 true but damn he would put on a show

[@emsishi9042]

Oh

[@RastaRider]

I'm surprised I can't hear the supercharger when he drives. That exhaust must be so much louder haha

[@MadRam11]

It's pretty loud for sure

[@billsmith-rq7ki]

If I had stupid money, I would have him build me two, then hire a team of mechanics to follow me around and always be fixing the broken one.

[@ka4172]

RCV shafts?

[@MadRam11]

yes

[@Dyshof]

Engineering at its best. I thought rigid axles are unbeatable?

[@goodolbronco]

lol yea! Get up pear !

[@bigrob966]

She is goddamn gorgeous

[@694069406940]

mid engine best way to go

[@moffettRL2727]

Where's the redbull sponsoring?

[@captaincouldverc]

I'll admit, I was one of the skeptics with this rig. With that said, I'm ready to eat my fair share of crow.

[@MadRam11]

haha, make two of us man!

[@crobar_]

That thing looks fucking pissed
