Well the Road Runner runs now, and is getting closer to moving under it's own power. The 499 starts and idles better then it ever did in the GTX. I think the new wiring paid off. Still have a bunch of loose ends to finish up, for once, I have a feeling of "It's getting close!"

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I'm more then happy with how the car has turned out, and can't wait to treat it like a rented mule.

Very nice! Sounds good.
Track time soon? Hoping to make the bracket race the weekend after Labor Day, at Brainerd. It's probably the best track around here for testing a new car. Long shut down, and wide lanes. Not planning on any new personal bests, just want to play it safe, and work out the new car quirks.

Yes. Painting the decklid as I type this. Got a few days of vacation days to burn up before then. Last night was a very productive night.
