I gotta tell ya, it didnt ride all that well and it doesn't turn worth a .  I only made one pull on the dyno.  It came out to 1 hand power, however i didnt get it all the way into the boost.

On the plus side, it looks like you've really got the pounds down. Should help with the power to weight ratio....

I got one of those models to put together that I have had forever. One day I may just get bored enough to tackle putting together that model which is something I have not done in many years.
