We get to talk through his latest overlanding adventure from the Canadian to Mexican border. We also dive into a little bit of the 2023 King of the Hammers race, vehicle prep, and UTV race class saturation. We then round out the episode with a discussion around the Ride Safe Foundation; an initiative that Can-Am has jump behind with Hubert. It's a long one packed full of great info!

Typically, this is a guide that we put together ourselves and then expand upon, but I though it would be fun to get different perspectives. We have guests from racers to media personalities, vloggers to manufacturers, installers to desert pre-runners. If you need a gift idea for the offroader in your life (even if that means for yourself), this is the episode for you!

We last talked with Russ on the podcast in Episode 50 at UTV Takeover back in 2020. We check in with him and talk about what sets their whips apart from the rest. This isn't a sales pitch, it's the passion that drives Russell and his entire company at Buggy Whips. We talk about Grandpa Porter, the fact that they are 50+ years into making whips, the safety factor of why you need a high-quality whip that you can rely on, and why safety as a mindset is so important. There's so much to unpack in this episode, we hope you get to listen or watch the whole thing!
