Upcoming ZUKIWORLD projects - Vote today! - POLL
« on: August 19, 2007, 04:47:25 PM »
We here at ZUKIWORLD are contemplating a whole new array of projects for the upcoming months but before we get started, we'd like to ask you what you'd like to see. Of course all of the vehicle project ideas involve Suzuki vehicles and power plants. Let's open a dialog to 'shape' these project ideas!

Please vote!

Thank you, Eric

I am currently building up my 2000 GV adventure style. I will be driving an all offroad route from coast to coast next year, the trail is called the TransAmerica Trail. This has been a dualsport motorcycle only trail, I completed it 3 weeks ago on my XR600. Next year I will be the first person to drive the entire trail in a 4 wheel vehicle.  :D

So naturally I voted for the adventure build.  8)

Hello Jeff,

I'm familiar with this trail 'system'. This sounds like a very interesting plan. Check your PM please.  ;D

Thanks, Eric

Do you remember Zag having a Suzuki powered airplane?   That was interesting.

Wow! So far no one wants to see a world record attempt at a land speed record in a Suzuki auto?  ??? I thought that would have got a couple of votes.... Thanks to all that have voted and for those that haven't. What's taking so long?  ;D

A Zuki land speed recort would be an awesome project! But I lean towards off-road projects  ;)

As for those slackers that have not voted yet  :-\ I cant speak for them.

The land speed record was a close third.  But I really want to see a Suzuki Score rig.  Especially based on that Grand Vit idea you had last year at Christmas Valley.   :)

Yeah, I've been leaning towards that project for awhile now. Some of the 'hold up' on that one is just making available the time to compete in either one of those series.

Cool, That's what I'm trying to make my Tracker into, a true adventure vehicle. It's already pretty close, and it sure provides plenty of adventure!

I was gonna vote for land speed just to make you feel better, but i thought you would want my honest opinion >:D
i know you said "attempt", and you know how much i love these cars, but i think the land speed record would be a little far off with trying to keep it mostly suzuki based(motor/tranny/case/axles/frame/body).
You go for it though, you always have support of your suzuki brothers and you know we will cheer you on the whole way  ;)

I think a baja version of a sami with a vw 1.6 desil would be an interesting build up IMHO
