    Yeah, it's a 26cc 2 stroke, 25:1 mix. It runs for about 40mins on a tank (700cc)

    Just incase you do any damage the fg`s fitted with the rc230 engine run on a mix of 50:1.

    Cheers Tallus hopefully get out soon IF it ever stops raining! At this rate we'll all be trading our Cars for Boats...speaking of which, if you nail the throttle through a puddle in you guessed it...that Ski-Vo which is deadly, can it go on water! :D or to put it in scientific terms 'aquaplane'.

    Hey Zt. I havent had it in water >>yet<<. But I dont see why it wouldnt work as long as i kept the rpm's up. It rips through the snow though!! I will be trying that this coming spring though. Gonna take it to the beaches and see how the ski's do in the sand.

    If you go fast enough through water it will float a bit like snowmobiles. i wonder does that go for the same with 4 wheels?:confused:
    *idea*
    :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4 damisdad


    I would think so. The swamp buggies do pretty much the same thing and basically mash the gas and go. I have another set of the paddle tires. Might have to try that in the spring. Cant wait to find out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,248 ✭✭✭Plug


    Yeah them paddle tires look class but are probly crap on the road, offroad, well thats a totally different storey!

    1/72, Airfix. The damned kit sucked more than the EC-135, but at least it has the excuse of age.
