Default Graphics... Something Completely Different

Hey;

A race car is a race car, right? We all want them to look cool. To wit, the latest graphics project on a race car;






This my friends is a Quarter Midget. It is a Bullrider brand chassis, hence the
bull theme. Plus, the owner graduated from U. of Buffalo. All graphics are
created from scratch just for this project, -vs just pulling something generic of
a CD. Perhaps the neatest thing of all is with any luck, I will be firing up the
tubing bender and BUILDING a couple of these from scratch this coming Winter!
2 Cool. I really want one!

Ha!

Yeh, I'd have to build one to.. um.. a little different spec. I want to build an electric for a pit runabout. I doubt there is anyone on this board that could get in this one. It is driven by an 8-year-old, by the way. Tiina tried (5'7", 130) and she could only get one leg in... sorta.

These things are for real, though. Even in the microd class with a restricted Briggs & Stratton where this one runs, they hit 30-35mph and can bicycle the turns (lift the inside wheels) if you're not careful. The Honda engined open classes seriously move out.

I want one.

LOL @ your new avatar. I love it.

And I love that midget. I'd love to rip it up in one of those.
