The vid is too much a sales promo

Shame -- would like to have known more about the engine and transimssion ITHER than it was Shephards.

Why not give us a whole series of follow up posts with the tech info on the car, the transmission, tyres, fueling, setup..... please......


hmm, this smells of SPAM, but tastes nice
