Yep we didn't buy any mags for that reason normally they don't get enough entrants. Anyway our fault.

Its OK there's still a TUFF TRUCK VITARA ,actually competing this year ;)



The new mods looks all as ive been told by a few people .....very :cool: just how much head height is there with the chopped roof and internal cage :?: ....

And remind me again just how much vitara chassis is there :lol:

And I recall Paully advertising the 42"s was he dropping in tyre size to the sticky's (ie 39" BFG reds?) or have the new irok stickys landed?



Shame about missing out .....rear steer rigs will dominate again this year and with no rear steer penalty they will be in there element...

Be good to see this on the trails soon ...just keep paully from driving it at Rover park

. With Paully driving and Sam naving, head height won't be much of an issue anyway!

It is nice to be able to finally build something from scratch with all brand new parts. There will be close to 500 odd hours in the build.

We went for the Rover over the atlas because of the rear output on the rover case is in a better position beeing offset rather than the Atlas centre rear.Which allow us to run a rear tailshaft at better angles and clearance. Also as we have developed internal disconnects for the rover case i think they are on par with what the Atlas has to offer.

Yes the engine has adry sump as we couldn't get enough clearance for the diffs and that is the tank behind the seat.
