I'm totally down for a Zuki land speed record attempt, but that whole frontal mass thing is probably going to hold back even the slipperiest Sammy. I think the guys out there last year in a  rear drive 1300 Hayabusa powered Metro with gun slit windshield is going to take you.  Seems like the Camel truck thing is sorta what many of us are attempting with our own rigs, so on to BAJA!

Or my other vote "Moon Rover Suzuki"-- Something like Fully independent computer controlled self leveling Air shocks (Land Rover sourced?) Just thought I'd throw it out there.

Interesting, So you're thinking of land speed Samurai project (or, that is what came to mind)... Hmm, that would be interesting for sure.

Hi-tech buggy would be cool. Why not remote control option?

Adventure 4x4 - I just love getting out there and experiencing "the great outdoors".

GV based gen 2 or 3 OR what about an XL7

I've got a group of guys +/- 10 Samurai's that are going to be helping me build up a BITD/SCORE racer. I would hope to have it done for Vegas to Reno this coming year. We'll see, it's a bit of a class issue too. It would fit in 3000 or 3100 (BITD) or 3 (SCORE) but it would be way overmatched (many running 450+ HP). But I guess it's all about making it in the end right?? haha

My VOTE is obvious...I dont want to be the only one out there!! Good Luck!

You mean to tell me you plan to race a Samurai? Wow, that would be a challenge. Please share with us as you go through the process.

No kidding.  I thought he was talking about building up a Tracker...

Shame you can't race in the same class as the VW's.  The HP rating is about the same...

I'm just guessing they'll race a Samurai from his posts. I don't know...

yeah the plan is for a zuk to race in "a race" in 2008 hopefully v2r but we'll see. there is a lot of work to go and once we get rolling i'll start up a thread!

Suzuki based Rat Rod

Here is my buddies.  It is a sidekick 4 door frame with a sami tub.  It had the kick engine and trans (2wd) moved back about 8" and mated to a sami t-case with gears.  Toy axles up front with GV steel housing.  37" mtrs.  It rocks!


Maybe a sidekick ratrod would be cool...

Blakes ride rocks!!!!!

I voted for the adventure vehicle because that is what my end plans are for my 'Kick.  The other ideas would all be a ton of fun, but for me it would be nice to get ideas for my rig by watching ZW build something along the same lines.

Then ZW could raffle it off to benefit charity and I could get the winning ticket! 

is this real? or "pie in sky"?
I call "vapor" since this "vote" has been around for ages now.
