    project viking comp!!!

    well.....here's another project we been working on. THIS IS MY BUDDY MASTERTRAX'S RIDE

    original viking comp........it was in bada$$ shape when he picked it up. wish they all came like this nowadays.

    this is how it was day 1.........just throw some power on it and roll, right??




    the wood in this thing is in fantastic shape

    we modded the seat box (2" lower) and added a rear seat box for the ol ladies to perch on


    beefed up the stringers and added a lil knee to em.


    getting a lil 80's retro with the seafoam green iridescent paint !!! somebody light another one

    we've got room in the back to put battery if needed.....he'll be running a sporty so h20 psi wont be an issue while getting prop shaft up.

    being that close figured even with pad be good place to start.....what ya'll think??

    PAT....what setback you running on the vking.....is yours lite???

    I've never weighed mine so to avoid looking like an ass hat later on... it's semi transparent and rather flexible where there is no core
    I imagine its lighter then most but certainly heavier then a comp.
    I've always run 6" setback and love it.
    I also found this year (MUCH to my suprise) that the boat drive a million times better with a bone stock sporty then any coned case I've ever tried.

    Good god

    I was a hotshot boat driver back then (of course, it was before the internet so it doesn't count)

    Probably start out even or 1/2" above and go from there.
