Released a lot of smoke when i shorted something with an accelerator cable. Also discovered the greatness that having a 'work in progress' is, so many parts that just swap over :lol: 8)

Built a super cheap tent in the backyard so I can get ready to paint the mini. Picked up my Lexan front window, drilled the mounting holes in it and trial fitted it.

Pulled the air hose off the airhorns compressor and gave it some 3 in 1 oilz. Ran it a bit to get the excess out. Put hose back on.
Now when I hit it, it's bloody LOUD again! :P
