| I also put in a new counter rotation box in the steering column, which makes the handling of the car uber better. basically they are just bigger gears which improves the steering responce. Actually a MASSIVE improvement in manuv. I'd say the car now feels like driving a sports car. Feels like u can turn sharp corners suddenly, backing up feels much better. I'd say the fun part is really towards the end of it. During the assement period where u figure out what really works, what doesn't, and change it.

| Great job Bob, I have been following your build sense the beginning. The detail work is very impressive! Do you have any special events coming up in the future with the Tumbler?

Wow very impressive work. I was wondering what Keeps WB from coming in and just taking someones ride and saying its copyright infringement rights on any of the builds? and Can they do that? researching doing a build myself.
Thanks

Bob is exactly right... If you are building it for your own enjoyment out of fandom without any plans on making money off of it then you are fine. The WB lawyers were quite good about everything when they talked to me about my build

| a shout out to dexter. nice to meet you. clintkc: yes I built this car for the military appeal as well. I will say power steering is a must. I sort of see this car as an experimental military vehicle. I do knw that u need some mechanical power to push those air foils around when you are tooling at 70mph. Ya, the wiring is complex. I was also through missouri on my way to texas about a month ago.
