blackrain,

Is that a Cen engine in this Nemi? Also why do you run single shocks, because of the pipe header? What pipe, how does it work?

Thanks,
Don

Blackrain,

Would the header clear if you were to run the forward shock next to the header?

Thanks,
Don

hey dogman thats a good find on the carbon fiber chassie, i might try that company out. I know hole shot engineering makes some side plates. i had a bad experience with the carbon from hole shot so i was scared to try it. This company may be worth a try, i only have old pics with the body on.

i bet it picks up quicker now with those smaller wheels. it probably robs you of your top speed though.
