could those wheels get any uglier? but at least they take visa.

Looks like they are about to roll of the makeshift ramp

no flex in the front either be a lot nicer and not as scary offroad if there was a nice balance of flex front to rear

Yeah, UGLY wheels and you'd think with all the effort gone into it that you'd try and get some more flex into the front for better balance but portals on a Vit are still kinda cool.

yeah the wheels are ugly but where are you going to find good looking wheels with 8 stud holes in the right patern?

the reason the the lack of flex is the rather short air spring/shock units, there are basicly motorbike forks but on buggys where you have the room to go up as far as you want with the top mount they are good.

that drive line agle is realy scary as somone pointed out before the uni joints wont last long like that.

come to think of it i could rant about how bad this car is but full credit to the builder it's very difrent prehaps not practical but it has the right ingreadence it was just wasn't cooked for long enough.
