The front of the engine sits about 2” in front of the windscreen line, making it jump over stuff super level.
Here’s a video of his first buggy of this style at Sweet Lamb. Yes he races in a leather jacket! And NO, no Bowlers are anywhere near faster than him. |

I'll see you there at Sweet Lamb, I'll be marshalling, depending on weather i'll be in either the v8 or td5... it's Wales, so the td5

Cool. I will be arriving in the 110 I guess and spending the day in/around the rescue ambo.
Also this will be the first time as Sweet Lamb. 1999 Defender TD5 110 Regards John M0VAZ Econet Station 48 no clock |

It's not very glamorous, despite its name. It's nice on the tops if the weather's good, terrible if not!
I've spent many weekends servicing comp motors, lying on my back in running water  |

That is "The cat's pajamas" (showing my age) is "sick" current? Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right. |

‘Sick’ is even old hat, now.
It’s now ‘that’s the jam’. 
I often speak fluent ‘current’ .... it’s working in my trade that does it... once talking to a female friend on the phone I said something was ‘sick’, she said ‘pardon?’ I apologised and said ‘’you’re not ‘DOWN’ with the kids, are you?’ To which she replied.. ‘No, I’m in Tesco’. 
@seriesonenut you need a navigator to clear your screen. |

Very nice indeed...
If he needs anything fettling or more work doing (assuming it’s not all done in-house already...), your mate could do worse than talk to Mike Brown at Blackbird Industries in Lichfield. They do a lot of Ultra4 stuff and much, much more... |

This is all done in his own private house garage, he has his own lathes and cnc machines, it’s under his house, he had to lift part of the kitchen floor up, just so he could fit a machine in the garage
