Interesting article, from what I could glean from Bablefish. It looks like investing is a set of nice "moon" wheels will cost more than a standard buggy, esp. with shipping over here! The rim options were referred to in a 2007 edition which is offline.

Either copy the short page text, or just the URL
go to altavista.com and click "Babel Fish Translation"
past text in upper box, or paste URL in smaller one,
use drop down menus to select translate to and from languages
presto, you have choppy english and obscure slang!

go to babelfish and paste in the URL. Select German to English and voila.

Good article.

also Firefox can convert websites as well, you just need to install the add-on translation package.

ill contact the manufactures here about the tyres, and let you all know where to get them.

Actually I've been thinking about a way to build an artifical sand bank from SPO to New York. It would give new meaning to the 24hr. race at SPO. I think they would have to make it a 48 hour race then.
