Project: HOGSTICKER

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]

RE: Project: HOGSTICKER

MARKETING DECK PROPOSAL:

The motorsport division of AMG Transport Dynamics has a time-honored tradition for flexing their engineering muscle through competition,
whether it be with their 24 Hours of Quezon-winning prototypes or their dynamic and durable RallyHog models. One of their most intriguing
projects is a highly modified M12 Warthog called Project: HOGSTICKER, which features a number of exotic composites to reduce weight and
the enclosed-cockpit monocoque from the M12 GT for increased structural rigidity.

The most prominent feature on the peculiar new vehicle is certainly the pair of experimental – and visually unmistakable – blamite-afterburners
that provide insane levels of increased thrust on demand. Lovingly dubbed the “Needlehog” among crew and engineers around the paddock,
Project: HOGSTICKER represents a bold and exciting new chapter in the Warthog’s already storied history!

POTENTIAL SPONSORS: Fronk's Formed Fish, BLAST Energy Drink, Club Errera

VERDICT: [FUNDING DENIED; Project fits no known series homologation]

ADDITIONAL NOTES: Erik, this is cute, but no. Where in Sam Hill would something like this even compete?!
I’ve supported plenty of your more… unconventional ideas before, but “blamite afterburners?” That’s over
the top even for you. Let’s maybe quit the daydreaming and turn our focus back to [REDACTED], shall we?
