non scooter build projects

Kliff posted in a thread about a building a personal track vehicle that plans are for sale on ebay, looked really great for going off road. It also inspired me to go looking on the net for similar projects. I found free plans on a site for a six wheeled off road vehicle. Here is a link for you to look at if you like that kind of stuff.

looks like the trans used in the plans on that 6X6 are not available anymore, here is a link to a 6X6 forum photo page showing what they use for a trans now;

Ah. When I read track vehicle I thought that meant a way to get around at the track. Not quite... though it could be. Pretty neat stuff.

And unless anyone objects, since we all are such a diverse group...Turbo'd Street 'Stang, Razor Kart, Antique Model airplane engines....yadayadayada

Why not share it with your scooter family?

I like to build and run 1/32 scale slot cars. My avatar is a car I reworked. Is that wrong for an older man like me? I enjoy it, and it's fun. Especially in the winter months. I also attempt to play guitar and mandolin. ;D

I think I could get real serious about a track vehicle. so far I have not seen any transmission solutions. I have seen a few v-belt clutch/trans. in the past. Could see a gy6 powered v-belt trans. would probably come close to a rube-goldberg. If I could visualize the transmission I think i would start gathering parts tomorrow. john
