Buggy Run Octillo Wells - Sunday 16 Nov 14

Heading out to play on Sunday 16 Nov with a few of the local buggy dudes if anyone is up for a drive. Leaving Valley Center around 0700 and plan to be back around dinner time.

If anyone is interested let me know, just a day trip and some dial in nothing to hard.

Re: Manxter DualSport and Offroad Manxter Run 2 Nov 2014 - S

On Nov 2nd I was lucky enough to get together with a few other Manxter DualSport Owners and head out to the desert for a play. Keep in mind this was really the 1st time I had been out there since I moved to SOCAL. Anyway, I was amazed at how much change there was in just a short period of driving in...

Not long now, the drivers are starting to show up at Bruce and Winnie's already and we have arranged some SOCAL Dust Suppression so it is looking like a great day.

Hope to see you all out there, rail, hail or shine it will be on !!

Re: Manxter DualSport and Offroad Manxter Run 2 Nov 2014 - S

Oops almost missed this, no prickly spot I just hate it when people have to try and find a negative in everything people try and do. Fun will be the winner on the day and that's what matters as if you are into buggies for any other reason you will more often then not end up disappointed. Purrrrrr on...

Re: Manxter DualSport and Offroad Manxter Run 2 Nov 2014 - S

Good to hear you can make it Joe, will be great to get some footage of your buggy in Action. So far it should be very interesting as we will have a very nice collection of setups with N/A VW, Turbo VW, N/A Subaru, Turbo Subaru. I have 3 GPS Trackers and hopefully a few guys will get a chance to down...

Re: Manxter DualSport and Offroad Manxter Run 2 Nov 2014 - S

So there is no confusion, as I too can read between the lines and you are simply asking if I am trying to get people to market my business by organising a casual buggy run and then using the footage for my own purposes. Simple answer is no but it does highlight why so many people out there are turne...

Re: Manxter DualSport and Offroad Manxter Run 2 Nov 2014 - S

Oh and the rear seat as in a DS it is a bench and not buckets. This is because the extra side heights allows it to clear the tunnel where as in the 2+2 the buckets drop down either side. The end result of this is that the person in the back can site sideways a bit easier if they are tall.

Re: Manxter DualSport and Offroad Manxter Run 2 Nov 2014 - S

I think the thing is that the only difference between the Manxter 2+2 and the Manxter DualSport kits is that the DualSport Kit has 3" lift in the sides, humps in the bonnet for coil overs and no rear inner wheel arches in the rear. The DualSport kits gets rear shock hoops in the roll cage and m...

Re: Manxter DualSport and Offroad Manxter Run 2 Nov 2014 - S

Ok my intention is to get as Many Manxter DualSport and Manxter 2+2 Offroad Versions together as possible with the main reason being that I want to get some good video footage and pictures for a project I am working on. This is the reason I called it a DualSport and Manxter 2+2 Run. That being said ...
