Sweet, fine tuning can be done later. Nice to see your hard work paying off.

finally finished painting the last few bits on the chassis. fitted the tbox, gearbox to tbox shaft, and front prop shaft. I will fit the rear prop shaft when I put the body back on, as I have to hook up and adjust the handbrake. been busy the last two nights melting lead. scored 10kg of lead on a job we were on, so I poured 90 4oz sinkers, I'm very happy with that :D
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
