No doubt... But whichever way you go, both projects will prove quite interesting and unique, I'm sure!
Any one of those projects would be interesting.

The gokart would be sort of like Simon Thomas's(I like the looks of Simon's cart) cart in that it would be almost square at about 4' but with full suspension.

The minibike would just be a bit on the wicked side with that 2-stroke and it may get built anyway for the OMB build off.

The tractor is my pick and would most likely cost the most but I really think it would be cool sitting there on 6 18x9.50-8 or maybe even 21-11.00-8 lug tires.

The 6 wheeler would be a fun all year round toy.

So its tied up 8 vs 8 and I had thought of deciding today (my birthday) which project to do if it was a tie but since I cant really start on it until after christmas I'll just let the poll run out.

At this point I'd do the tractor but the poll will decide christmas eve at 9PM.

I'm going out to the garage in a few to do MORE clean up/organizing and to try to make room enough to get my car in there and then I'll have enough room for the project.

I need to get a garage computer going so I can surf the net out there.

Its looking like the 6 wheeler it will be Hmmm but the poll doesnt close until 9PM so anything could happen.

I did find some very decent cheap tires with rims on the SurplusCenter site.

6 of these bad boys under it should work fine and at $24.95 it will save me a bundle of cash.





The tractor would have had an even more aggressive LUG tread and would have looked mean but I guess not enough people wanted to see it........sniff sniff :(.

Hey- Nice tires! With sizing like that, I think that you'll be able to fit 3 under the tandem trailer fenders as planned! I'm jealous! Deals like that don't happen 'round here...
