hi
potentially thinking of selling the beast. ive had it for ages, never finished it and now with building my mini7 and my job i really dont have time or a use for her. its really a show / track car, and il never have time to use it. to be fully functioning it needs about a weeks work on it. finish the wiring, install the nodiz ECU (peasy squeazy) get the engine running and a few little touches here and there and she is done.
