No.

Will finish it first.
If wheelspin is a problem, I'll just keep spinning 'em until I break one of the diffs!
Then I'll get LSDs :wink:

Hmm, wheel spinning,

Reminds me when the MOAV did a driver training course, when asked what do you dowhen the back of the car starts sliding out, the answer given by one member is 'pull the hand brake on, it makes the slide last longer!'

mike looks like a big head ache if u ask me but im sure the end result will be worthwhile. should be crazy fast! i also like the fact your using a na suby motor. bit over the whole turbo idea... your moke should give a few rex's a hell of a scare.
keep up the good work!

The other night you said the rear body was 18mm out of square... How you gonna fix :?:

I shouldn't think wheelspin will be a problem. There is no weight to haul around. It should just grip'n'go.

Still thinking about it.

Will check all dimensions & take diagonals again tomorrow.

At this stage I'm thinking of just putting the towbar on crooked to match the body :roll:

u can fit nos to pretty much anything with space to fit the bottle......
nice work anyway, need some more engine pictures though...
How fast 1/4 mile are you expecting, what power level is this engine capable of (remember to add a few hp 4 the nos)
