Oh man does that thing look fun as crap! I bet it would be a scary ass ride above 30mph though! So how deep of water can you run that thing in?????
Jack
Oh, and after you get it running, drive it up to Va beach and give me a spin in it! I am sure the VHP won't mind that thing crusing down the highway!

Careful about slinging Mud, it's like Dwarf tossing, and my body doesn't take kindly to that anymore :shock: :t:
