Hehe, hate me too.
Brag: I got the first set off the production line. :)
Shame: I haven't been able to get the temporary cockpit
ready so that I can play with these new feets toys. :( That
is a T-Day project. Appropriate, since I've had these
things for over a month and feel very much the turkey for
not having them in action yet. But they are every bit as
spiffy as Martin sez they are.
Hey Pogo - thinking about putting a light in the footwells
of your pit so you can show these beauties off???!!
