    Nice job, looks good. Dirt looks like conservative driving I must comment though, run a trailblazer or something and really throw it around.

    yep, dirts good game for a run.
    If you find it, load up dirt 2 and work your way to China trailbazer, thats a teeth rattler if you get the motion right.

    Looks great..

    I'm using the same seat which gives me confidence that my build will turn out as good.
