That looks like a blast.
What's the range on a full charge ?

About 30 miles.

Lairy wheels!

. We really wanted the lime green. We did not get that because it just had lime green stitching on black seats and not the inserts like the red.

Absolutely weapon mate - well done!

Wow I don't know what happens to my text in posts from Tapatalk. No idea what that was saying. I think it is fixed now.

Thanks, but though 30 feels fast in it weapon may be a little much. It's is kind of a thing here that everyone has a golf cart and will tell you you need a golf cart when you move in. Initially you think I don't need that, and then after some time you cave and try one. Next thing you know, it's in your driveway and your driving it to breakfast on weekends. Everything is fairly close here so it makes a lot of sense in place of a car. Plus most of the yards are over an acre so you do a lot of back and forth moving things.

I love the hidden valve stems on my wheels, but they're impossible to air up if you lose the extension.







I had to "modify" something I bought from Napa yesterday, but it was a success. Hoping to hit pavement with the car today.

I think we may be close to the same age. They use to make the plastic caps that would extend these out. My Dad had a set of Buick Wildcat wheels on his street mini -T dune buggy and had these on it back in the 60's.

I just found some. Apparently Jegs makes them now. They are $3 for a set of fours. If you don't wish to keep then one you could keep them in the glovebox. There are also others that make SS and brass ones.

Thanks, I had already ordered the other pieces from Napa (and I'm not sure they will fit), I was impatient and wanted something that would solve the problem immediately without slowing my progress. My other wheels don't have tires, so these are my only option to get the car on the ground.

Went in the fast group this evening (usually there is slow med fast but evenings it's just slow or fast.) I was front of the slow pack last time hence the switch... Absolutely schooled here They went past me like I was stationary.
