| the illuminator almost died today, drove it up to my cousins, and just after i got there it sarted raining, on the way home, i drove it home in the rain, i parked it came back out to check the gas level, i heard something sizzling, just thoutht it was water on the motor, till i heard it coming from the electrical spot, i imedantly tryed to disconnent the batery, but theres was no F**KING VISE GRIPS to be found, after a min i found a pair, nervous as hell i got it disconnected, im hoping that it was just water shorting it out and not something worse. still dont know where its coming from but when i stick the ground on it i get a nice spark | |

| Without the gov on the motor i can do almost 40mph with it and i also got a tach for it. I figured out where all my oil is going, my crankshaft has oil dripping off it to im guessing i need a new seal for it and i fond one on ebay for $5.50 and i also need a flywheel gear, the one is going bad, its missing quite a few teeth | |

| Well i took her muddin today, ik ik its a racer, well its more of both, LOL, it did pretty good i think i only got stuck because of things such as the tranny getting bellied and too big of bumps in the front, of the tires with the locked front end, and open diff. Here are the results....  | |
