+1 Having to rig the test to achieve a roll over is classic.

Really impressive!! Very interesting video. Now I understand why 315 wheels on back are useful!! Not to mention the car body that does the job. I can call it a spider, but a spider is too thin, I can call it a frog, because it's bulky, but not enough, maybe it's a toad that doesn't quite want to flip over
