Looks sweet. I see you're also rocking the Invisible Glass That's good stuff!

Here's a few action shots of the buggy when i raced it in 2010 in it's original LX-1 form with a comp lx body.





A shot of me on the drivers stand, 2nd from the left. There was a guy there from Europe racing with us that day, he's on my right. He said a lot of there tracks are made of turf.

That 350 is a nice stock engine. My son has 2 gallons on his andit's holding up extremely well. I keep wanting tothrow on aB5 or a P5...but hekeepssayinghe wants to stick with it longer.

Are you running stock clutch in your LX?

No, back then i was running the stock 14t clutch bell with carbon shoes, but now i'm running a vented 13t clutch bell, steel 51t spur gear, all metal clutch bell bearings and aluminum clutch shoes.
