INTRODUCTION ________________________________________________________________________________________ The birth of VEXUVIUS **(for TRC variant) was inspired my enthusiastic into rock crawling activity via radio control models. In real life rock crawling is very much an adventurous sport and need skilled man in handling both machine again the environment where physically unpassable obstacles are crawlable. It took me months to to fully indulge my passion in technical work of the crawlers. I realised having an ultimate 4x4 machine doesn't mean it has something to do with speed but its all about skilled driving and torque power. To make this activity affordable by immerse the activity into virtual reality VEXUVIUS was built with its physic inspired by rock crawling r/c models...i hope in reality a full scale VEXUVIUS will one day reborn. VEXUVIUS was named after the mountain god VESUVIUS which reflect its power and mighty over the top of high mountain summit hence thus its characteristic as it was. THE DESIGN ________________________________________________________________________________________ With enthusiasm to recreate rock crawling version of MAXXIMUS with more modern exotic looks i decided to start making a new design from scratch with all dimension measurement and outline similar to MAXXIMUS. The first plan to built 4 seater with rear truck bed and 4 door but cut back to 2 door two seater hatch back design. MAXXIMUS have classic truck like frontal and rear appearance but i planned VEXUVIUS to have more sedan car like or exotic looks such as aero headlights and rear lights, smooth aero outlines and mid mounted exhaust to give it a sporty looks. Few signature remains constant such as the "X" beam and flat sharp lines remain as trademark in all "CD" designated marking. To show evolution from one species to another through DNA evolution of design XEXUVIUS carry on legacy of XAVAGE partial genetic imprint into its physical self but in a form of super off-roader genre. The rear "X" beam, headlights case, lines of narrow dark panels, sharp mirror like center lines and aerohead like windshield carries on its genetic to present day. Not to forget it also share partial looks of classic MAXXIMUS overall physical outline looks, in VEXUVIUS the rear hatch, frontal and rear face improved with more aerodynamic and modern looks. However due to the fact VEXUVIUS built as exotic off-roader and crawler the chassis have only 2 doors, 2 seaters and enough compartment to store survival tools and spare of adventurous journeys and lightweight concern. Front and rear tip end distance to wheel base are shorter compare to standard 4x4 models allow more clearance to navigate steep angle surface especially during rock crawling without hitting the front and rear tip first. The main headlights and rear lights are mounted higher above the wheel fender level away from possible mishap at prone impact area plus added areodynamic modern looks like a sport exotics light case design. Exhaust muzzle integrated in mid section of the rear panel for mishap avoidance and sporty looks, also another means to maintain constant design trademark throughout lines of SupermotoXL Designs. CHARACTERISTIC ________________________________________________________________________________________ VEXUVIUS **(for TRC variant) is very torque-ish truck concentrate more on "power to climb" gear ratio with locked differential for all around slipless traction over the rock. Its features solid axle, higher ground clearance and short length chassis almost Jeep like size for manouverability over rough and narrow turn terrains. The tire are very claw-ish for greater and deep gripping power over rocky and loose obstacles. Full time 4wd transmission and powerful vertical braking power. The front nose and rear length from the main wheel hubs are very short allow more clearance and climbing angle away from ground and object obstacles.

_______________________________________________________________ TR C "Torqued Rock Crawler" variant. ________________________________________________________________________________________ The "TRC" (Torque Rock Crawler) version is the original specification of VEXUVIUS. The specification built for serious over the rock expedition climb any obstacles beyond and 4x4 vehicle limitation. With high suspension lift kit, serious rock crawling tyre with bead locked wheels, winch, k-bars, rollcage, 5.9L V8 hybrid engine huge torque power, full manual control axle slipper the XEVUVIUS TRC variant will put mother nature against the machine to the test. TR "Trans Rally" variant. ________________________________________________________________________________________ The "TR" (Trans Rally) variant designed for fast paced off-roading, very aggressive dirt blaster, full time 4WD and good for running down the rally track gone Dakar Style tourer. With V8 engine, stock rally wheelsets and rigid chassis, spare wheels, roll cage protection and higher supension clearance the "TR" will make a big leap over the sand dunes. UR "Urban Rider" variant. ________________________________________________________________________________________ The "UR" (Urban Rider) variant designed for tailored urban driving, simple styling, less off-roading accessories and mid height setup on the suspension. Completely basic type of 4x4 vehicle for everyday use. The tyres and wheels are standard compact SUV type tarmac threading suits for smooth and low rolling resistance thanks to lightweight CNC metal matrix alloy wheels. It runs below 250hp on v6 engine, with out differential lock option on axle transmission, stock peformance suspension and just good enough to drive around the country side with family and friends. SUMMARY ________________________________________________________________________________________ VEXUVIUS have shown several important value that are usefull for our next future development of super off-roader both in design, engineering and conceptual theory. Simulated research and development on VEXUVIUS shows that there no limit on what design and ideas we could implement as long we have will to create it. I learn the most important thing in my life when it comes to pull out new ideas for an automobile designs, "we don't have to follow others, we follow our own ways". Uniqueness is our trade and ideas is our talent.

• notice: MISSING FEATURES IN 4x4 EVOLUTION 2!
Unlike previous model created before XAVAGE models, these new release will not include any illuminating '3d object lense' lighting feature such as headlights, fog lights, rear reverse and brake lights in 4x4 EVOLUTION game. This is because the game coding unable to support light lenses object behind transparent 3d surface; eg headlights unit behind static glass.
• notice: TUNING VEHICLE HANDLING AND PERFORMANCE
This car/truck comes with a stock driving, speed, braking and handling performance setup (*.TRK file). I’m not really a good performance and handling tuner so I just design and build the vehicle only. If you need to edit the these setting to suit your taste and or simply wanted to be a tuner you’re welcome to do so by extracting the POD file and edit the *.TRK configuration. You don’t need any special permission from me (David L. ‘SupermotoXL’) to do that, so have fun with it. Just remember when you need to upload the vehicle make sure you put proper credits. If you need to put it for commercial value let me know about it. Enjoy the ride.
