    Taking that around the circuit track would make for an epic water park ride!

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    So I will have a friend riding shot gun on Saturday. We are talking about having some lunch at Bald Top around 1230. We are in for the trail ride. We may be heading out to JT's for a few donuts, but probably not camping.

    Hey guys, had some family stuff come up and I'm not going to be able to make it tomorrow. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and I'll see you all on the flip side. Planning to have my smoothies on right after the holidays and then take it for it's maiden voyage shortly thereafter!

    So, I think a lot (like A LOT) before I fall asleep at night. Last night I was thinking about rear mounting my Tacoma engine. This would let me to shorten the front end and center a differential and very long control arms. And!!! Put the weight over the rear differential, that would also be centered with very long control arms. I was thinking about the transmission and/or transfer case/transaxle I’d have to use, and thought about the wrx sti that has the knob that adjusts power front to back. I thought it would be cool to have an awd setup that you could vector power to either front, rear or both as if it was a rheostat. At this point if I would have picked up my phone to do research, I would never have gone to sleep.

    So then I got to thinking about if I wanted it to be like a rheostat, electric motors would be the simplest way to do that. I’m not trying to make my truck green, but what if instead of an engine I ran a generator.

    You are much smarter than I am, but watching a custom shop try to transplant a Tesla driven train into an old truck made me never want to. They've had so many issues just trying to get it right. And they're even working with a company that specializes in this stuff.

    I think Auto meter makes a version of a digital dash.
