Yeah, noticed that myself (but last night on a kick arse sever I was not able to do this, no lag either /shrug). I can almost always make the Powerplant run with Hotwire only loosing the outer armor (100), pending its noobies playing and the rock area isnt mined. (If thats the case then I just go repair vehicles and or blow harvesters untill im dead...then if their are mines, i might just take a regular soldier and make a suicide run, usualy by that time there is alot of action and peeps dont realize you have blown their mines.)

Anyways, back on topic...oh wait, that was the topic, the ob doesnt run W/O power hehe.

Hotwire says, "BOOOM BABY!"
