Fantastic Dave!!! I'm very excited for you guys! ...and my gut is wrenching for not being able to be there. Your patient approach to this build truly looks like it's going to pay off. Can't wait to see that thing hit the dirt. Will be glued to the tracker during the 1000.

So is this a class 3 or 4400? I see on pirate everyone is calling it a 4400? That would be cool to be legal to run either class if you wanted!!

Class 3, 4400 in BITD or class 8. How's that for versatile?

Don't forget that it can be entered in TT, 1400, 1450, class 1 without the body, safari, or sportsman open wheel.
