Re: LIQUIFIRE II
I agree. This is cool stuff. Time to begin collecting the necessary parts and hire the design team to build me one, even though the engineering fees will be substantial.
Re: LIQUIFIRE II
We are blessed with many members of Deere sled following that are truly experts. I am amazed each time their knowledge and ability shine in all venues of vintage amoungnst other OEM vintage groups, thank you everyone! JRC. See you at the HOF, sledless this year!!!

Re: LIQUIFIRE II
Joe, I like it! 
The idea of Jon being sledless is a bit revolting though....I would think something must be done about that.
Open for suggestions...

Re: LIQUIFIRE II
Well ..... Here it is
I rode it for the first time Friday. Everything worked out well except the track was too loose and was skipping at times.
Rode it Saturday for about an hour with no problems. It rides real nice and feels right. I will have it up in St Germaine this weekend at
the Radar Runs.

I hate to admit this to Joe, but that might be one of the coolest sleds I've ever seen.
Absolutely beautiful.
