Rodeo,

Yep, that's my a kart (dig the G-Man sticker :) ), but I'm running a Honda four stoke/no gearbox (lower $$$ decent power/top end). I wish I had a two-cycle 250 shifter on it.....My friends run them and they are FAST! They were running 130 on the short straight at Sebring last year. They give me their old (20 minutes on the track) tires :). After a bad motocross accident where I shattered my arm overjumping a double (2 plates, five screws, three pins, a cadaver bone implant, and thirty grand!) my wife decided that I would stay on four wheels - with a cage if possible. The buggy should be a wicked fun ride. I'm heading up to a sand pit this weekend to meet some folks in a buggy club who have private land to ride. I'll leave my rail home though as I need fix a few things before I get stupid with it.

On the tiki front, I need to finish this other Maori so I can get to making some $$ on some other pieces and fish rubbings. I'm laying out his face moko tonight. Stand by for pics (if I can get my camera to work).

Thanks everyone for commenting on the buggy. It's not often I let myself buy this kinda thing, and I'm very excited.
