anyone know what the specs of a pilot are- length,width, and wheelbase is mainly what im after. i plan on building something very similar. im going to take a 660 raptor and turn it into a buggy. but i want to keep it small so i can still ride on atv trails. thanks

I'd really love to see a FL400 pilot that is 50.5" wide...
Its supposed to be 60.5"...

IT IS A TYPO...
This little typo has caused a great deal of GRIEF...

It has been posted on boards since day one and beacuse of it at least two areas that I used to ride in are now have gates at 50" to keep the bigger toys out...
National Parks also adopted that 50" width limit :-(
