Project: HOGSTICKER was a project proposed by AMG Transport Dynamics' Motorsport Manager Erik Burch. Burch proposed the creation of a new M12 Warthog variant for competitions, like the RallyHog or the M12 GT variants. This vehicle, dubbed the "Needlehog", would feature a number of exotic composites to reduce weight, the enclosed-cockpit monocoque from the M12 GT for increased structural rigidity and a pair of experimental blamite-afterburners that would provide insane levels of increased thrust on the Needlehog. The fundings for the project were denied by AMG Special Projects Director Tyse Jenkins, because the Needlehog didn't fitted with any known Warthog series homologation.[1]
