    it takes a lot of time and effort to get it looking just right (like a bucket should)

    I would say that was 3 days worth of work on CAD just to get the cuts to look just right (much like he had torn it with his teath)

    then all the expensive vinal that looks like ducktape
    his sponsers would be proud

    hope to see this running at Mt Welly this month ?????

    No effort spared.

    Interesting project, building your own, dreams of glory, its my idea, of how to enjoy bucket racing. I am looking forward to seeing it on the track. And it should add a bit of interest to the next TRRS.

    understandable with those type of hours! I feel your pain somewhat. I'm getting closer to the end of my build, but I doubt it (or me) will be ready for Taupo (A bit of a shame really).

    I'm looking forward to see what the TZRs can do...

    Sad to see it go. Hope the buyer has all the fun you had earned by building it.
    Have you caught any fish yet?

    Haven't had a single pizza party this year as the building materials for the new pergola and the summer house have completely taken over the back area.
