Ripsaw EV3-F4, 2020. A personal recreational tank produced by Howe & Howe is currently being offered by Hemmings Auctions. Based around a high-strength tubular steel exoskeleton, it is powered by an 800hp 6.6-litre Duramax turbo-diesel V8. The cabin is supported by air springs to isolate it from the forces encountered by the tracks.
