[@bigbuckoramma]

I have met Travis multiple times at the Olympus Rally, and the Oregon Trail Rally. And many of those times have been away from media, away from parc expose, and away from cameras. He has ALWAYS made time to come over and say hi to my kids, has always thanked me for bringing them out, and getting involved, and appreciated i kept my phone in my pocket, and a camera out of his face. Out of all the motorsport celebrities i have ever met, Travis is one of the most real, honest, genuine, down to earth people i have ever met. His celebrity status not withstanding. He is the same on and off camera. I dont think the guy could be fake if he tried. Which is something i cant say for a lot of other people in motorsport who act like prissy little prima donnas the moment they think no one is looking.

There no mechanical advantage for these arms, way easier ways to solve what theyre solving and has been solved for years.
