The thought of driving around on 6" spacers is seriously scary :shock: You'ld at least have to take out shares in a bearing manufacturer :lol:

Post by: lee celtic on October 15, 2007, 18:57:43: At least they are descent spacers, in the last show he was using two plates with a bit of scaff tube welded in the middle :shock:

The cars he builds are more car art but some of the styling he does is amazing 8)

Have to agree. It pushes my limits too. I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to watch it again.
