Geo Tracker vs SxS

[philofab]

Any reason a Geo Tracker couldn't be built to SxS rules other than Rhinos would whoop on them most of the time? They are about equal size and power...

Just an odd thought I had today.

That would be a way cheaper starting point, with a factory A/C.

You need to hire Pearn to drive it like its a Suzuki Sidekick.

Check out this trackick...claims it'll beat a sxs in almost every cat. (Idk about that??? my rhino is amazing) I've been getting interested in these and have been doing a lil research on them only big downfall is it's ifs with a strut not dual a arm/shock but they say it goes..

one rule for sure , it has to be CVT drive. have to keep the main frame as stock from factory, ( reinforcing allowed) and use the factory suspension mounts. 72" width also is in some rules

size and power! lol, get it down to under 1200 lbs, and true 14" wheel travel, independant at all 4 corners with 68+ hp to the wheels. many classes limit the CC displacement also.

Ac would be cool in summer time though :)

Nada Rog, just been checkin these out for a desert explorer/expedition type vehicle. They have 95-100 hp stock and only weigh #2500(you could easily lighten em up a few hundred pounds or so) a/c for summer, STREET LEGAL, their cheap(right now) to build and maintan, Still fits in a TH, conv./soft top.... Talked to that guy above Tim Roble and supposedly he went to mutha g with the one he built(1 link above) and heclaims he could do all the big dunes no problem and could hang no problem with a rzr s:rolleyes:

There's a Sammy vs Rhino comarison here: http://www.4wheeloffroad.com/featuredvehicles/131_0711_suzuki_samurai_vs_yamaha_rhino/index.html

That comparison is for a samurai not a sidekick/tracker, sammies are solid axle leaf sprung while trackicks are ifs like a sxs and a 3 link rear... From what peeps say they do really well offroad...

Effe that magazine, when are these peeps going to understand that these are nothing like a golf cart.

Lol.. My thoughts when I read it to... Only thing similar is size
