What is up with the welding on the cuda? What was that bracket for?

That was the first outing from last year. I used a $hit shifter cable and kept ofer shooting the shift and bent the cable. That was a temporary stop to keep me from over shooting it.

I use a better cable now, Like in your Piranha you purchased off me.... You still have it?

Hey Doug.

With the welding in the video.  Were you near a house?(power outlet)  How did you power the mig welder?     I am wondering if a portable generator would power a 110v mig welder without issue.

Camp site has power, we did some welding this last trip to. I only used it to manufacture some camera mounts at the site. I built a tripod that clamped to the buggy chassis so the camera was about 6 ft. off the chassis. made for some cool shots.

The flag is the reason I was catching the air I was. Wyatt whats your deal anyway latley?

I just watched the footage again and saw the wheelie Doug, good one! I wasn't trying to be a smart arse I really wanted to see if it were possible to do a wheelie in a Cuda..

Being a mid engine... you need the hilly aproach and I snap the clutch sometimes. It all depends on the terrain for a wheelie in the Cuda.
