Sometimes we have more conversations after the official SXS Guys Offroad Podcast finishes recording and they don’t quite edit into the show. Today we bring you some extra dialog with Hubert ‘Rednek’ Rowland from Nitro Circus while recording Episode 19 of the podcast. Hubert takes us on a virtual tour of the Nitro Circus garage and briefly talks about upgrading his 64″ 2020 Can-Am Maverick X3 RC Turbo from 120hp to 195hp with Turbo RR parts. Hubert then talks about fuel consumption on the Trans-America Trail and the Baja test drive experience that solidified the switch to Can-Am. Enjoy!
