will_warne Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Cheers Will,It is a Proton colour but I'm not sure which. I asked the guy who sprays the busses to do it G4 orange, but then thought it may not be bright enough so asked for it 'a bit lighter'. First outing will not be for a while. Just playing while I get used to it as it is set up completely different to our other 90 that we use for trialling. Plus its not finished yet. It will not be light. With just the cage and portals is was a shade under 2 tons. Richard I guess you'll probably end up at about 2.2 - 2.3 then. That's not terrible, really. You won't need an underdrive with the gearing you've got and a decent cage will stop you bending panels every 2 minutes. I'm hoping to get down to 2150 kg when I put the truck on a diet although I won't compromise strength for weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And is the 2150 with or without yer SHD 'FH' KittyGripper then ? Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minivin Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 So, on a lighter note, what do you think of the colour TAZ90, that I am working on? B) or or Richard Sorry for the thread hijack. Admit it, you've watched too many Only Fools and Horses and got some tunnel sign paint off BR, do you need sun glasses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
