Thanks for reviving this so those that missed it can see this!


Love the work you put into the Ski Patrol!

Thanks guys! I've still never run it. I had thought about running it in sand, but it would be horribly messy. Maybe one day it will snow in Long Beach

I think I have the parts left over to build a runner with this same suspension set up. It could be cool for a street version:

Teman, got a link to the vid? I gotta check that out!

It was fun driving it, I just had to replace all the screws that rusted up after the fact

ah man I forgot about that! I wonder if it will make it into a print version too? or is it just on the website?

It hit the mags. I don't have in front of me but I think it made a cover shot too.

That is too cool, I have the issue, its not on the cover but it did grace the readers rides. Nice job!

the red Snow beetle is super cool

right on, that's cool. I'll have to find a copy!

Neat and well thought out. Now you gota go to the mountains for some snow!
