Thanks! Clock change screwed me up today after work, it was getting dark when I got home. I guess I'll have to fasten up some headlights on it.

New addition. Comp Pools. A big thanks to Mazzzze for making these available. I'm planning on bringing this to the Spring Fling and I'm undecided which set of tires to put on it? Opinions welcomed.
