Default Project Envy! All inside!
Folks we've finally done it. The T/A is fully 100% runnable, not street worthy, but at least runable.

Heres a video of nothing but it running, in about half an hour I'll be adding a full length movie showing from whatw e started with till now.


Running only...

Full Length...



Still pictures (sorry I take'em with my cell phone)
