That's a big milestone. Congratulations! Definitely try and grab some photos/footage of your driving around in the go-kart stage. Would love to see it.

Thanks Mad Dog,
I left the vid camera at work over the weekend. All I got was a crappy cell video so I'll just have to do more testing....;)

It's a bird, no it's a plane. No, it's a hot rod with red doors!! (first go kart with doors). That was pretty cool. Jim, I drove across NJ once. It took me forever to get through the forest. I think you have one of the largest pine forests in that part of the country. Who would have guessed.
You are ahead of me but I know what you mean when you say, "I can't wait to get it finished"!!! Good luck. WEK.
