Got the skids out of my system on the weekend. Some of the neighbours weren't too happy. :(

But now back to taking it easy and trying to get the rear tyres to last a year. :lol:

Yeah pretty interesting when compared to the Liberty. They're not that different in dimensions and weight.

Have decided to get into some lawn mower racing with a few mates.

It's got an XR200 rebuilt motor and few other goodies. Capable of a little over 80km/h. Death wish maybe???

Needs a little bit of a tidy up.

Here's some pics.

that's mad! I used to have an off road go kart that I used to race as a teen that had an atc 200 Honda motor like that, it had electric start and hi/lo gearing. Does yours have hi/low?

shave the head up compression and run it on e85 ha ha

A mate has a property in Heathcote where he's constructing a race track. Racing starts in September. There is a ALMRO site if you want to check out the action.

I do have a leaf blower lying around the house.

No E85 plans...And I'm not sure of the gearing. I do know its got a locked diff and can do a wheelie. Also the body looks a bit dusty but has been sandblasted and has a full respray in black. It's currently in transit. Should be delivered soon.
