Just saw the pics (not sure how I managed to miss them...), awesome stuff Dave! Great to see the finished product out on the road, I can't believe they actually let you drive it over there. You'd be totally screwed trying to do the same here. Now you just have to get a hold of Max Fairchild and get him strapped to the front.

Hopefully I can save enough coin to get over there to one of the events in the next year or two and see it in person, along with everything else that is gradually coming together over there.

Most. Amazing. Build. Ever.

Kim Noyce was saying he was straped to the front of the Humungus vehicle at stages during fliming madmax2, he remembers coming up behind the tanker straped to the front of it, along with driving it too at diffrent stages

Kim was one of the madmax2 stuntman

If Kim makes it out to the Road Warrior Weekend Event in November we'll strap him to the front again. ; )

I had the privilege of seeing Dave's Humungus vehicle up close at the Dragon*Con parade this past Saturday in Atlanta. It looks just as good in person as it does in the photos. For the parade, Humungus was at the wheel, with Toadie standing behind the spoiler. It was a huge hit with the crowd. I remember hearing the cheers as it pulled up to the staging area and again as it hit the parade route.

I wasn't able to take any pictures, but I'm sure there are a bunch on the Dragon*Con website at www.dragoncon.org.

Big props to Dave for such a great replica.

Way to go Dave, you even made a quick flash on CNN

Hey, thanks, everyone!

PursuitSpecial, it's actually easier to work on the engine now. I gave her a tune up and replaced the valve cover bolts and it was the easiest time I've ever had doing that. But if I want to do something major, like replace the radiator, then yes I'd have to cut some parts off. There isn't even enough room to get the air cleaner off!

Peter, yes, I suppose the cops over here are very accommodating. I am from the Motor City, though, and I think that may have something to do with it. Also, I never drive stupid and I've tried to make everything as legal and as safe as possible. But, if a cop really wanted to give me some trouble; no doubt he could.

Here's a list of more videos:

Outstanding effort. Hats off to you, the vehicle, your costume, the Toady - fantastic. You should get that set-up to more shows. I really hope you enjoyed playing with the vehicle and seeing all the video play back. I would love to see that vehicle and your costume all together at a show. Full marks,

Friend of mine took a couple parade photos from her hotel room:

This is the best of the 2 that have The Machine; good for a different angle that you don't get from on-the-ground-photos :]
