I've seen him up close and he's HUGE! During the National Qualifying Event in '05, TerraMax navigated the course with surgical precision. He was the first to show off his ability to drive in reverse which caused an eruption of applause from the stands. In your photo, he's seen navigating through a narrow course of hay bales intended to simulate the berms of a desert road. He threaded himself through it with inches to spare on either side.
