Wow Brad you have really made some great progress on this build!  And it looks like you have a fantastic crew with some extremely high tech equipment.  Very cool stuff.    8-)

I hope you made all the right engine sounds when you were doing the seat fitting?.

It's way more fun that way. :evil: :-D

LOL   I can't think of any higher goal in LSR than to have your own address within the "Mayor's" township!   :-D

You know I made ALL the noises while in the car! Usually go through the whole routine of throttle, shifting, clutch in,  chutes, etc. while in there! Then I close my eyes and go through my exit strategy so getting out is second nature. As far as the "Warnerville" deal, that is my goal! My idea of Bonneville "fun" is to have Dan tired of seeing my ugly mug in his "town"...
