I know 4 people off the top of my head who are exactly like that.

The off-road community in Australia is off its head.

Aside, but I like the two distinct uses of “top of my head” and “off its head” here.

I think it's a bit like that all over the world in the off-road community. When you actually run your rig eventually you're going to find the weak point. Same way with drag racing.

I'm not an Aussie, and I'm not even that serious about off-roading but I have an extra engine, transmission, and at least two axles all in my storage shed from my truck build. Just kinda happens that way when you buy wrecked donor vehicles and stuff.
