Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!

Its a Lotus 7 replica but not a Caterham. It's a World Class Motorsports - S2K Ultralite: Honda S2000 motor (240HP) in a 1400lb street legal race car. And no, she doesn't drive it

My friend has 35s on his Jeep, and side-by-side, it looks like they'd fit fine with a lift.

Oh god that's gotta be a fun little go cart. I'd love to get my hands on one of the Seven replicas... One of these days.

it depends on the backspacing and the type of tire(mud/ all terrain) because the lugs on the side is what would be hitting. And i read that the wider the rim the lower the od of the tire is but i could be remembering it backwards.
You might want to ask the 4wd section.

but make sure to put a front end alignment if needed. and dont be afraid (if you get the trxus mt's) to put enough balancing wheights. they take quite a bit. i need a front end alignment so the outside of my tires are wearing a little fast but the backs are wearing perfect. im real happy with them

with a 350/th350 3.08 rear and 31" mud tires its kinda hard to do good burnouts, with a 350/700r4/3.08/31" I could do burnouts most of the way through first, last week my engine ate a cam lobe which took out my main bearings. so now I'm driving a '91 dodge ram50 (made by Mitsubishi) and I'm gonna pull the 350 and stroke to a 383.

a 383/700r4/3.73/31" with a 1800 stall converter should do very nice burnouts

I'm gonna start to pull the motor today or tomorrow and I should have it back in by the end of May.---stay tuned--- a 383/700r4/3.08/31" burnout video will be posted on youtube.
