Got it running

Hello everybody,
Thought I’d spread the joy, got my VortX outside for the first time last night and got it running... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTIBAjbfZbk

Should have it in a state for little "go" this weekend, IVA papers and cheque sent of yesterday. It’s all coming together now!

Have a good one!

It's a great feeling when you get to see it outside

Thanks for the kind comments guys.
It was great to see it outside, an old lady walking past said "that looks like it'll take a long time to finnish"
I'm hoping not.

The chassis is 109, user name pre-dates my build (ref to the blues brothers).

Shall post up a 1st drive vid over the weekend.

Have a good one
Will

I have to say, cracking your engine up for the first time makes all that hard work well worth while.

Looks good.





It's not that i'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.....
