maaaaaaybe?
as for the bouncing....i'm not really sure how fast i've gone....i don't think i passed 20 mph, but there wasn't a bounce per say. I'm kinda holding back on the speed on the count'a the rear brakes need more adjusting, not to mention no seat harness yet - so i don't want to crash!
...does it come in black?

video
at 58 seconds you can see the belt coming out losing a little grip. I'll be using the shorter belt next time.

Conrad that is some awesome editing skills! I think i enjoyed that video more than any video you've posted so far just because all the different angles made it new and excited.
How is the engine doing so far? Does it have enough horses?

| Hey Conrad, I'd say no bounce in that front end....Now did I see a hybrid go-Tumbler driving on a New York State highway. Do most new Yorkers have such disregard for state highway laws?.......hehehe....... Nice work and nice editing.....BWD

Conrad,
Congrats on the test drives..
But that video work was awesome. You really set up some nice shots. Didn't know you wanted to be a filmmaker too

thanks fellas. Shagg..i cant really answer the question about the engine yet. First I have to get the right size belt on, then I have to take it out somewhere. So after the dirt terrain test i'll probably remove the motor governor to get even more RPMs. then ask me again.
no hybrids here Big Wave....at least not yet!
hey Monta...thanks but again, i don't really consider this test drives. i really need to beat this thing up out in the dirt somewhere. shooting video like that takes a while when you have only one camera to work with. Still, one camera and duct tape can go a long way. growing up as a teen in the 80's I always wanted to direct music videos. my high school had a Film Study course for seniors where all you did was watch movies. pretty cool the final exam was to make your own 5 min film. I made a trailer to a movie starring me a friend and cousin. wish i could find that. Today if i had my chance i'd love to direct/edit a movie or something. if I met Christopher Nolan he would probably be the last person I meet as I would drop dead.
anyway HOPEFULLY the next short film will be of the real test drive.

Hey Conrad, just wanted to chime in and see how things were going your way, it sure has been quiet around here. Is everything ok?
