Wow ! Great news and this car was his idea , design and build I just drew up some parts in CAD for him , very happy to be a small part in his victory though.
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

That is really awesome. The chain concept itself is also more free than a belt right, less friction/rolling resistance?

Must have been a pretty intense 5 minutes. I would have ended up looking at another car and turning into a wall!
Hope you're doin' something fun.

Oh look, uncle Joe is here 😔 and look he came at the end of our work day and has the area grid locked 😡 not moved for 25 minutes now, and I know he has probably not stumbled off the damn plane yet 😔

And cool build guys! Love the chain set up! Any videos of it in action? With sound!?
