Very nice! How does it run? I know you got videos coming, but sometimes videos don't do justice. If only it can record the feel, ya know? Some punk *** in a Civic tried to race me the other night....I should have dropped to 2nd, because man my acceleration from 40ish sucked...badly. He got ahead of me at first because I didn't expect to do anything, but he continued to go, so I gunned it. By the time I was catching up, he let off since he had to make a turn. In relation to feel...I may have had alright acceleration but man it felt bad, haha. It makes me wonder if something isn't tuned up right. My friend who has been around Dakota's all his life, is suprised with the crappy takeoff.
