just wondering if any members from wellington will b at the drag racing, (4 cyl & V8) this sunday at Trentham, any body wanna use it as a meet up? ill b the guy with a pram

I plan on having a look. What times does your pram do ????LOL

i havnt had it even dyno'ed yet! i was thinkn of puttn down the strip then doin the same after th mods, i picked it up already with lightweight plastic alloys, but its only running peewny 8" biscuits, but im sure i can run it on methanol, i hav an ample supply!! perhaps wen u see it, u culd shed sum light on any mods, bein an expert!!Quote:

I am still a few months away from running around with a pram, but I plan to fit some wheelie bars and some big as alloys. I was going to fit a blow off valve but I'm told babies come with them factory fitted ?? I'll probably go for some nice dangly things hanging over it as well... I will be running it on the natural juice to start with but I'm sure it will end up on the bottle!!! .But seriously I have started to build a new pedal car, it will run some kart alloys and slicks and I've machined up an alloy steering wheel. I am undecided about a body style but I am real partial on a mini AC Cobra......

what do you mean by pedal car as in you pedal it around or some thing diffrent

A pedal-car for the beginning racer ... cool! I didn't even get a Big Wheel, I had to wait to pedal the neighbor's around when they got tired.

Stirlingmac, surely you'll build a 1200 coupe body for it? ... er, I guess it would have to be an open body style, maybe like the barchetta body.

stirling mac, have u seen the classic pedal cars available in the city? there is a model T, and an old ford tow truck, i wuld rather a datsun a 1200 sedan convertible, im sure an earlier BMW mould would produce a similar shape to work from, now u hav got me thinking, im already keen on a JR50 suzuki!!

only problem is, it looks like it culd b wet? any ideas on wether th weather will b a problem?

stuff the pedals go get one of thos cars they look just like the real thing but smaller and they are fully race ready and they have a motor bike engine like a 300cc motor or sum thin they cool and they have like a 3 speed box as well only prob they cost sum thing like 3 grand with is a bit of a cut back
