Fair play to you some great pics in there too.

Those slick tyres look to be exposing the chassis a bit thou ~ have you considered a harder setup & shell strengthening? Reckon bliss could be achieved then ;)
phunkynova

Only on looking a week later I found out. :eek: lol

The shell is seam welded and strengthened with a full cage plus a new suspension set up which is a lot stiffer than the old one.
