Your 2 years younger than me, knowing that, and your career, I'm thoroughly impressed. Monster truck, rock crawling and other motor sports. Very impressed. I will say the thing I'm most impressed with is your mom with 2 kids and a degree from byu. Which says a ton. It's amazing that you grew up in so cal and stayed good and clean get your education and then be in motor sports for a living where staying clean is very difficult. Ctr. Your a stud. I love what you do and how good you are!!! Great example to all of us. Idaho here.

At about 15:36 Jason tells Nicole that she can cruise some more or do whatever she wants. A few seconds later he says,ok, that's 80 MPH. OMG, gotta love it. Even though Nicole's knowledge and driving skills are phenomenal, her personality and enthusiasm keep me coming back for more and more of her video's. And I have to compliment her whole production crew for the super professional videos. I know that a quality 30 minute video like this is the result of a ton of woman/man hours of work. WOW! YES YES YES !

This was so. Much. Fun. Flying across the desert I think your eyes were wider than I've seen them in any of these videos. This is a serious machine and you're a serious driver. Total badassery.

@NicoleJohnsonsDetour 2 года назад

Yep, it has a lot of power and capability. The last time I raced King of the Hammers in 2010, we were in the car 10 hrs and 47 minutes from start to the finish line, and I think I blinked 6 times. LOL It's about constantly scanning and reading the terrain, and picking a line. My car was never capable of the kind of speeds we could hit in Jason's, which is why I wore my glasses. I knew that terrain would be flying at me and I wanted to see it clearly! Thank you for watching!

Somehow, wearing glasses with a helmet and fire suit just can't make you look nerdy, no matter who it is. But with you, it just makes you look more intense and focused. Watching you drive through the course was a lot of fun and brought back memories of my youth running around dirt roads here in Michigan, from hard pack gravel in the south to sand trails in the north and the dunes on lake Michigan in the west. Watching your detour is fast becoming my favorite past time. You are becoming one of my top five channels to watch. Can't wait to see what you try out next!

Great fun to watch. Reminds me of my days of back road driving through New England. Watching now from sunny Florida near Daytona Beach.

🇬🇧 That suspension articulation is amazing to watch and then you realise that throughout the full range of travel, the drive is still being transmitted to the wheels at massive torque. Spectacular to watch, especially over the rocks, not even defeated when it has bellied out on a huge boulder. I found myself whistling through my teeth watching you drive through the technical sections 😳 Well done to you and great encouragement from your new passenger

@NicoleJohnsonsDetour 2 года назад

Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. It's been a few years since I've taken on the trails and rocks and I really enjoyed it. Jason was very generous to give me this opportunity..he was an awesome co-pilot! Glad you enjoyed watching!

@@NicoleJohnsonsDetour Did you not feel guilty, like it was cheating on monster trucks? It looked like it was a really addictive sport from the way you were absolutely buzzing from driving it.

@NicoleJohnsonsDetour 2 года назад

@@michaelwilliams4086 I didn't feel guilty at all! If anything, it's the opposite for me. I started in rocks and King of the Hammers... then went to monster trucks. Always felt like I left a little bit of me behind. So happy to have gotten back into a rock buggy!

@@NicoleJohnsonsDetour That explains the skills we saw coming back to you in the video, it looked very natural. Hopefully we will see more of that if you find some sponsors 😁

Checking in from the Eastern panhandle of West Virginia. Lucky enough to be only a few miles from Erik Millers shop and have gotten to see him run a few local events.

Watching from Colorado! I'd love to make a trip out to the Hammers some day. I've done most all of the trails in Moab UT on 2 & 4 wheels (Jeep YJ).

@NicoleJohnsonsDetour 2 года назад

Moab is a great place for wheeling...been there many times! Thank you for watching there in Colorado. Hope you do make it to the Hammers some day!

Thanks for this episode. I’ve always loved Ice Hockey (played as a kid) because of the level of skill required to play fast and use a puck at speeds of up to 100mph with a stick. ON ICE. This was my first glimpse into King of the Hammers (this type of racing) and I got the same feeling. Rock crawling is fun. Desert racing is fun. Combine both? YES!! Considering how I drive and beat up my poor old clunky CJ7 “dirt roading” and off roading I think this would easily have been my sport had it existed back in the day. Love it. Very cool. And BTW thanks for pulling the “real” out of people. Watching from the mountains outside of Los Angeles in So Cal.

Nicloe, I am loving your videos! You know your onions and can drive properly. I've always liked desert race vehicles and now I want one of these. Can't afford the real thing, so it'll have to be scale RC, (started racing them around '85) but what the heck, it's all good fun!!!!!! 😁😁😁
