Reminds me of my first "Remote " control car , one chanel sonic control ,went forwards and backwards in a circle by means of a single front caster wheel that flopped round when in reverse , I was a little disappointed .
This should be more fun .

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Re: Land Speed Rocket Car
Along side Dadio, which offered me any 3d printing I needed, and will be on the side of this car as "Dadio Designs"...I picked up another local sponsor today...$500 check...and another $1000 if I break the record!..so cool some people actually dig it!
