Dr. SUS in the house!!!
finally got to drive it today MAN this thing is FAST!!!! There still is some loose ends that need to be figured out with some of the wiring but it runs and drives!!!! I need to wire in the proform push fans I have here for it and I need to get the dash working... I am loading videos on Youtube as I type this... Just firing it around our gravel lot at the shop, it needs some plates and insurance before it hits the streets... and then the trails!!!

This car is definitely a blast to drive! I am eager to take it to the track so we can see what she will do.
