If i decide to kamikaze a valk and ram something with it.. first can i do that? and second what happens in terms of the game? do i just follow the normal rules for ramming or does a maxed out movement valk blow up?

No go, Valk neither has the type of Tank (must be able to Tank Shock to Ram and must be a tank or have a special rule that allows the vehicle to act as a tank to Tank Shock) nor has it any rule or upgrades that would allow it to so no Ramming.

If your example was say a Dark Eldar Ravage with a Shock Prow which allows it to Ram, you would follow the normal rules for Ramming.

Yep, and I think it's silly your 130 pt Fast Skimmer holds dudes and has 3x Twin Linked Lascannons. However those are the rules, good with the bad.

Totally took out a Valk in a head on collision with my Wave Serpent, heh heh, that was an epic crash...

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.
