Will it Rally? Can Am Maverick X3 DS Turbo R

Will It Rally? This web series from The Team O'Neil Rally School asks the only car question that really matters: Will it Rally? Ride along as we test the limits of different vehicles on our skidpad and slalom areas, before putting them against the stopwatch on a mountainous rally stage here at Team O'Neil.
In this episode we take out a 2020 Can Am Maverick X3 Turbo R on a beautiful fall day. Let's see how the Can Am stacks up against the cars on our rallycross course and full rally stages!
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the epic quest to find out.. Will it Rally?

Would love to see an updated video of the new maverick R that just came out. With the wild suspension geometry, it’s keeping the machines much flatter through the corners. These vids are awesome. Keep watching them just to hear the feedback as you’re driving the car

[@MrLundefaret]

I am a WRC driving coach, and I use a Polaris RZR 1000 XP as my coaching tool. This because it moves so similar on its dampers like a R5 (Rally 2), or WRC (Rally 1) car. One thing I off course pay special attention to is of course rotating under braking, and it doesn't roll over - as that is essential. I think you should have run it in 4WD :) But to make sure, stiffer anti roll bar on the rear, and a spring kit, and square tired like Maxxis Carnivores, then it doesn't only move like a rally car, but as a rally car :) Love your content! Keep them coming :)

[@Matthew-ll9ke]

I'm late to this, but with the mods you mentioned (anti roll bar and stiffer springs with squarer tyres) the maverick x3 will also behave like a rally car? I.e. you can now rotate it before the apex in 4wd mode?

[@Matthew-ll9ke]

@@Coyote.five.0 thanks for those thoughts! They are certainly different, but at the end of the day, they both have 4 wheels and an engine. There are definitely things that can be learnt from one to the other

[@MrLundefaret]

@@Coyote.five.0 I have been a rally coach since 2011, have worked with all level of drivers, including in the World Rally Championship full time for drivers Hayden Paddon and Mads Østberg, and the UTV is my most important training tool. Don't you think it would be smarter to ask how a UTV should be used correctly for training, rather than rejecting to see a different perspective than your own? Just curious 🤔

[@XxSavageBearxX]

This is almost an ad for CAN-AM. What a thing they've made haha

[@jakerichardson7973]

It would be fantastic to see him run this time against a turbo rr. An extra 20hp makes a massive difference at that weight

[@antisocialmotorist6909]

Had one of these types of buggys, and your comment of not alot of steering angle is 100% true. The one i owned struggled to turn tight corners so you got into the habbit of letting the rear kick out around corners otherwise you would run out of road. It was great fun to drive, you just looked nuts constantly kicking out the rear.

[@Teamoneilrally]

Yeah the tight trails you almost have to stay in 2WD and use the throttle, otherwise you're doing 3 point turns

[@ChainsawChuck13]

In my town in Alaska, they race these on the frozen lake during the winter. Part of that lake is right behind the store where I work. When the I3s are screaming it sounds like the racing V6es of yore... kind of nice, actually, to be greeted by the sound of Le Mans on ice every time I leave to get lunch.

[@RafaAelM]

Le mans on ice sounds like a musical I would go to

I think there are wider options from can am. Also these are basically coilovers so you could lower it. Rotating these things under braking is too much fun

[@hunped9890]

I would love to see how a Crown Vic would perform

[@Teamoneilrally]

We have a handful of Crown Vics here, but they have very heavy steel bumpers front and rear for teaching PIT maneuvers and pursuit/counterpursuit techniques... Which is fun but with the bumpers they're quite a bit heavier and bouncier than stock. The next time we purchase a new one I'll do a WIR episode for sure!

I was legit just thinking today that you guys should make a video using A SxS. I found your channel while researching suspension tuning for my SxS, and you have made the best most user friendly video describing how/why (Thanks for that BTW). Hope to see more SxS content on here, and think it would do well for your channel and maybe school.

The Yamaha would be the only choice for a rally sort of discipline in a utv. Sequential transmission, naturally aspirated, much much lower C.O.G., and its a Yamaha so its already badass.

[@hondarider10zx]

Exciting to see this machine rip on the track. Would really like to see you drive a YXZ1000 next, very close to a rally car.

[@danielminchev6031]

Hi, thanks for the great content. Watching this video I was thinking, are you planning to make a video about what happens if things don't go according to plan like, "you crash" scenario. My point being that sooner or later this happens in one form or another regardless is it on a race track, rally track, off-roading or in daily situations. I think it will be super beneficial if you guys can give us some advice especially for novice racing enthusiasts.

[@TheSaltFlatInterceptor]

I gotta ask where you are ripping at because it's absolutely beautiful out there. Great video as well!

[@saudalsubeai982]

[@carson.608]

Turbo side by sides are the most fun you can have on 4 wheels, but thats just my opinion and I've never driven a rally car

[@chrisherbert4454]

Would love to see a 2017 or later Honda Ridgeline the SH-AWD system seems to be excellent.

[@elieenquatrelettres5805]

Well I want one !

[@TheLaXandro]

I wonder how quickly an adventure bike can do that loop. It definitely can rally but the question is just how well.

[@Teamoneilrally]

We could put a big KTM out there and see what happens, Wyatt wouldn't be very quick but we have a few guys here that can ride FAST

[@jvepps]

YXZ1000R with the sequential would be even more fun.

[@Cowabunga808]

I've had my 2020 Maverick X3 XRS Turbo RR since last September. By far the most fun vehicle I've ever operated! She jumps, she drifts, she muds, she crawls and she shreds! Such an impressive machine, guaranteed to put a smile on your face and make your passenger need an underwear change!!

[@colinstu]

[@martingray7439]

Odd suggestion. Will it Rally? 2nd gen Ford Transit Connect LWB or SWB

[@shawndejong6699]

Will it rally? Well it does the baja, KoTH, various other races... so I'd say it's a no brainer.

[@T16R0N]

I really wish to see some new street cars in Will it Rally. For example Subaru Crosstrek 2.5L vs. Mazda CX-30 2.5L. The cars have very similar specs and it would be fun to see them competing to each other on a rally track. Though it will not be as fast as WRC.

[@anthonyjohnson9627]

Would love the x3 max

[@rex_s80]

What tire size do you guys would think would work best? I was planning to either do a 225/55r17 or a 215/65r16 ish (I’m pretty flexible with changing it a bit) sizes. I have two sets of wheels. I have the feeling the 17” would offer better side wall control as the 16” would have a very large sidewall and loose some of the tighter handling that a car offers over an suv. I currently run 215/55r16 but they are very small in the fender wells.

[@Kyle-fu6en]

If you liked the the ds 64 wide, you would love the rs 72 wide....

[@Kyle-fu6en]

@Tony Ponce no it’s not

[@Kyle-fu6en]

@Tony Ponce read the title of the video?

[@anthonybrizzolara8827]

Lets see a dirt bike or adventure touring bike or even a scrambler run this course. something that you might see at NASA rally moto. Something 2 wheels to compare to all these 4 wheel vehicles. more data and more variety of power to weight vs road contact patch.

[@lifekingindonesia8617]

I think on the maverick we can adjust the height of the shock absorbers as well.. there is a key for it. So if it's lower then there are less chances of it to flip.. my question is if we do rally with this then which class does it go to? Jeep class? Or any other class... And also can the 4 doors maverick can rally too?

No, it would roll over easier... And time would suffer.

[@given0fox968]

Scott Keiser I’ve had a SxS since 2013 when I got my 13 RZR 900 XP, and it is still awesome, rides well, and keeps up with my YXZ. The YXZ suspension isn’t great (Shock Therapy says it’s a geometry issue), so I wouldn’t say the ‘ride’ is superior or great, but the YXZ excels in driver engagement. I have the sport shift, and would recommend it over the 3 peddle. Check out Donald Writesel KZbin channel for some great YXZ driving content - their channel should be bigger, so help me blow it up.
