Just an Idea !!!
Great idea !!!

Don't tease ....... Send me pics to my email or give me a link to watch the build. Justin is killing me with all the idea's over there and I need to stay focused on my car build so I can drive it this summer.

I will not tell everyone you are a SXS cage master hiding in the closet We really enjoyed the work you did for us before our trip.

Well hay we just try real hard. After Building that Teryx for Cognito it really got my wheels turning. If you think it is odd for us to be building SXS utv's, you should see all the work we have been doing to our Go-Karts.... We spent 4 hours last week working on a $1.99 part just so I could have adjustable timing and pull start. The manufacturer of the billet flywheel said there was no way to make it pull start. And the class runs state it must still be pull start. DONE.

175 dollar fly wheel on a 180 dollar engine, with 4 hours of work in a $1.99 part just to pass the boys on the back stretch. And you thought Hot Rods were a poor investment of time and money.....

I never said I did not look like Super Mario in the Kart.

I traded my 2003 Mustang for 3 karts and we have had a blast on the weekends with the karts for a while. A bunch of my buddies have bought karts and have done some damage to say the least.

You've got a great range of really cool projects! Congratulations on that! It's nice to have different things to work on so that one certain style or car doesn't get old that fast.

I really think this is what makes our hobby interesting.

We started this Teryx for Cognito Motorsports about 3 weeks before SEMA last year. The first time the Owner saw it complete was when we drove it into his booth.






That Big ugly White truck in the background belongs to Dan Henderson of UFC fame. Believe it or not it says "Hendo" on the door, his nickname.

I got quite a few emails and phone calls on this pickup, so I figured I should show a rough mock up pic we took today.




The long bed sides will be cut to length, Don't worry Tim....
