Spoken like a true engineer! "I've done all the design, which is the hard part. Now you non-edjamacated yahoos should be able to build it in no time and with no issues!"

Yeah, which I imagine makes it even more bitter for you since I own you at the track.

Maybe I can trailer the "S" up we can do the re-wire side by side
Based on what I know now, just go with the "douse in gasoline and light on fire option"

Seriously, your car is almost exactly like TDs. We could rewire it in a day or two. Let's talk after I get TD's POS out and my new suspension in.

Apart from the motor, which, even when running healthy put out 147 hp AT THE CRANK, there was not one reedeming thing about my car. Nothing. It was heavy. It was wired horribly. It had a horrible suspension. It also had an incredibly uncomfortable cage. I had plenty of excuses, but you didn't chickster man.
