Man look at you go, Your like a mute kid who just learned to talk.

That thing looks cool, and it is pro-touring for the rocks.

I want to go to the hammers , but i didn't build it to compete . My last one was a campbel ent 2 seat , it was more of a comp. rig than this .
This one cam compete in smaller events , but i would have to change to coilovers for hammers and longer events .

Kenny if you click on the IMG code link it will bring it up in the right format to post the pics not just the links.

I'm just trying to be helpful, not an ass for once.....

Kenny!

Coming out great, definitely dig the clean lines in the buggy!

I am not sure what traile you hit and your wheeling style, but seeing you built a four-seater, a small recommendation is to add more triangulation on the cage if you are going to be attempting something a bit wilder (and I think with your build specs it definitely looks like you will!

I would add braces on the B to B pillar, and B to C pillars, and also V or inverted V on the A pillar to center of dash.

Killer build, so keep it coming and great to see I am not the only one with project ADD here, hehe!

Hope I am not cluttering:

Current project (TJ on tons, 4 sp atlas and other toys) - CO's are sitting getting dusty in the garage :D
