Well, I drove the monster this weekend. Drives incredibly nice (I have only rough aligned the front and rear tires). The clutch is great, steering is AWESOME!!! I think I may have gone too far on power, unbelievable. It doesn't spin tires, it just GOES (running 3000 rev limit until I am full comfortable with her, thus never pushed but MAN!)..  The motor performs extremely well.  QUITE A LOT FOR A LIGHT CAR!!!  :)   Very fast, sounds GREAT.  I am extremely happy with the motor and its performance.  Corvettes, Saleens, new GT500, cars with nitrous, etc. can not touch this car.
