Tyres and driver will be the overriding factors I think.

I need to learn this as it is completely new compared to how it was before.

How to drive it on and off throttle, used to be diesel now petrol, different ratios, different visibility, how to use the throttle, used to be fly by wire now cable, completely different engine characteristics and so on.

Also no idea how these tyres will perform, I could have got the treps but I also wanted to drive this on the road so didn't fancy some sticky compound bias tyres but they would obviously work better off road.

These tyres might just have no grip in certain situations, say on wet rock then you are struggling no matter what, or they might bite well on loose terrain.

It will be a learning experience and for me especially so getting stuck I'm sure will happen but as long as we all go out and have fun that will be what its all about :clap

40" Tyres with difflocks and all that travel, no chance any legal lane is going to trouble it, I reckon I could go up the the Horse shoe in mine with the help of my winch, as far as I know it has a VRO or maybe a TRO now.

Remember what I said about the side exit exhaust?
