Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me the best way to cut a 2/12in. hole in each Plexiglass door for Vista Vents. It's getting way too hot in Vegas to be without vents.
Thanks, Dale |

I just bought a KitFox with a 912S. The previous owner said Valvoline DuraBlend is best if you use 100LL once in awhile. I could use some input from some more experienced Rotax owners.
Thanks, Dale |
