Sled is going to be a handmade racer out of an 600 Vmax. Tubular things and plastic, Honda motorcycle parts etc...

More to come on this later.

Hey Ike, where will you be riding this sled? Will you be in Ivalo or Kautokeino water drags?
Thanks.
 
We´ll be at Ivalo 26th if all goes as planned. Sodankylä Watercross 2.8 is on schedule also.

My brother Sami will be doing the riding, I´ll stick to mechanics on the dry land.

You´re coming to Ivalo?

Ike
 
If you come to Ivalo and we are there. Give us a shout. You can´t miss that blue / white Vmax.

Just warming it up. Still needs lots of carb tuning to run good... ( 109 oct now )

Well, good thing then that my Nokia cellphone has a converter of different units.

That thing weighs 165 kg = 363 lb.

What he said above. Forgot to mention that it is aestimared.

Last modifications to the front frame were mades yesterda, so it might be little heavier now. SamueLJackson bent the frame on the field... Rocks are hard. LOL

Ike
 
We´ll be at Ivalo but not with the Nautilus. Piston failure last night... Beer and chips for us then.
