what a gadget!
I see there's rubber boots on your shock shafts...is there a boot you can fit to the telescopic drive shafts?
I'd hate to see sand gettin' in there mate

fantastic work

Sparkplug boot through the roof love it.

Just like on a real car - if the motor is too big some parts have to stick out.

I think it looks bad ass as well. However you may want to add some sort of cage to that plug area or carry some spare plugs. Rollovers are inevitable in this game.

Status: offline 		I was thinking about that. All the try-outs I made looked stupid as hell. So I decided to buy a decent arsenal of plugs and wires with boot. Thanks, glad you like the Evo II -version of this sandrail. I was real scared to start to modify it as Brice had created something that is nearly impossible to make better. I more or less followed his lines with additional performance mindset. That's how it came out.

Status: offline 		Good score Jari. The plug lead reminds me of bad drivers holding something on the car roof (the drivers who do not buy roof racks)!!

I suppose it goes like a scalded cat now?

Status: offline 		Hi Mudgy,

dunno yet about scalded cat but would suppose so. I've not tried it yet. I will of course break in the engine but I'm not going to drive it until we have a good coverage of snow here. Most likely earliest mid-January next year. Snow is very friendly to the car.
