First Drive - just couldn't wait, numpty
Not having had much progress on the build recently I gave in to madness yesterday and took it a run down the lane, it's nearly a 1/2 mile round trip. Now I really wouldn't recommend this as it has no bodywork, radiator, exhaust or shocks and only a handbrake!!
 Engine and wheels really. Scared myself sh*tless, even had it sideways in second. It's surprising the fact that although you know you have no brakes that you stamp on the pedal !! Man it was exciting  but as the saying goes "Don't try this at home"!!!J

.......... Nice one J, Another bloke after mine own heart, i took mine for a spin round the block once mine was rolling - a bit after your stage though. Came across a cop car coming across end of street (never see one when you want to), soon pegged it back to garage and door down. Cop car then went past my house 3 to 4 times looking for the orange thing that flashed past him......  AndyH
