    hey Ninja,

    top speed calculates 55-60 but I have not put a GPS on it yet.
    my calculator was spot on with the Vegas buggy, we will see on this one

    real nice low end power, drifts and does burn outs.
    Test tires are not as aggressive as the ones we will be running but it slides the corners real nice with easy to control drift :-)

    shot some quick in car video this morning, nothing fancy but fun

    Cool, sounds like fun on a dirt track. How do you think it would do for the dunes?

    I think we need to send some people up to your track to help with the testing program. No worries, I would bring a cooler with me just in case it got dusty out there!
