I'm not convinced by this 24V stuff ( bit like mini skirt and suspenders) !!

Faster to kick-in and faster to slow down, personally I will be 12v all the way.

motors are rated 12-36 volts, its when you go sub 12 volts they don't like it, hopefully by the time my build is done, Jim will have his electro magnetic brake on the meerkat and I will get 1 of them to stop the over run.

I have tried 24v thru 12, it rocks, and if its good enough for Jim, its good enough for me

Looking good and a bit radical.... You realise you're only a few pints away from tube frameing the complete rear end like the Pirate boys don't ya

Go on you know you want to....... And still keep it road legal :icon_super:

a bit radical? maybe but heh lets push the box and do something in the UK that those frigging Landrovers will stop and take note......obviously after yourself, King CJ, IOM etc

All my welding and tube bending and chassis mods have been done by a 20 year old, he has big things to come me thinks :greggmo:

And heh if you want some stuff doing to your truck whilst on holiday on the IOW, give them a call on 01983 614350

as much as I love to promote people, then I won't have anyone to build my jeep on the island, or MOT it, he is qualified in that, he is also a marine engineer, see you can leave school at 14.....

he is an exceptional find, and talent needs promoting..... :010:

My Vectis Racing is entirely funded by my own pocket, but in a bid to win some real cash sponsors I am trying to promote our team by at least looking professional in what we do, so to go along with my website, here is our team Shirts featuring some companies that see a chance to add value through advertising from what I do, in return for favourable prices on parts and labour:

King of the Valleys will be on TV in august on Motors TV, so if your company would like some advertising space on my truck, shirts, shorts/trousers, helmets, Tow vehicles or trailer then please get in touch
