I'd imagine that thing probably handles like a Go Cart.

Bingo. Meaty tire, reasonable ride height, lexan rear windows(?). That is my dream S2K.

GotInsulinBro, I believe you are correct, and those windows are probably Polycarbonate (Lexan), I'd guess probably around .060" thick, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were around .125" - depending on how much "flopping" the owner can tolerate. (Think pieces of Polycarbonate make noise when flexed, I've always called it flopping, but I'm sure it has a technical term.)

The only other sort of Glass replacement that I know of would be acrylic (plexi-glass) and that's not really suited to automotive applications since it has a tendency to shatter where as Polycarb will crack. Also, Acrylic is REALLY hard to rivet or screw without breaking.

I came back to New Jersey from California. Second thoughts? You betcha.

What's nice about NJ is that if someone says they're from NJ, you can drive to their place within a few hours at most. Same can't be said for California or other large states.

John Bresch.

You act like you're not going to come back to visit.

And if you don't, GotInsulinBro and I will drive our RAD cars down to Texas and bring you back with us.

GotInsulinBro, Those wheels are excessively rad. I don't know if I like the cap though.

Foolinaround · 02-28-2011, 12:34 PM

As long as I'm allowed to be clothed while I'm in the truck.

Also,if you didn't come out to the mini meet yesterday you missed out.

Awesome games of lava monster and jail break were had on a play ground by men and women.

Kupkake · 02-28-2011, 03:42 PM

Foolinaround · 02-28-2011, 03:45 PM
