Looks like a lot of fun Mark...
I've been working so much I haven't had time to take the buggy out this winter. With the PATS on tomorrow and with NEBuggy admin stuff I just don't have the time.

You mention that the skid plate was hitting the snow. Do you find that your tires dig down into the snow?

That's the problem we had last year out at EMR during our snow ride. The ITP Mudlites would dig into the snow to the point where the underside of the buggy was deep into the snow.

I know with your 4-wheel drive it problem isn't a problem at all.

Are you going to bring it to the '08 National Bash?

My tires thought it was mud so they tried to dig to the bottom Very Happy

Seemed to go pretty decent in 2WD, too.
Even with chains on my Dune or Yerf I could only go thru about 4" of new snow. Once packed down it was a blast, though!
