Some nice shifting and clutch work there. Sorry for being lazy, but, is there sway bars on this thing? Seems like it was understeering quite a bit.

 It was a VERY successful maiden voyage. I couldn't be happier with the work so far. I truly expected to have something go wrong on the test run. This thing is going to absolutely blow people away!

Not to take anthing away from the truck... but I think you're good driving skills was a major factor in that vid.

OK Bob, $64,000 question. When do you start marketing the MX520's and how much?

I now what you mean about labor of love and not keeping track of labor on a build.
It is really a great build Bob, can't wait to see your next project, and look forward to more on the MX520. Thank you for sharing.

Too cool...
That in-truck vid made my day, week and month. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
Bob could you post a link to any track layout maps or their web site? There seems to be a discussion about to paint or not. While it would surely be great to see a fresh paint job, it might lose some of the Rat/sleeper impact. Maybe just some vintage Datsun & Mazda race livery graphics over what is there now and buff them out so they look old. Fisch, Edz20zx here is your subject, get to drawing...

Don't think there are any adjectives left to describe project. Really amazing, from the introduction, to the fabrication and vision, all the way up through a ride along.
Great job, it's really a privilege to have you post here and allow us all to be a virtual part of the project. Congratulations on an great shake down!

ok Bob so after driving cars on the race track for years how does it feel driving a truck on the track? Or does it feel just like a miata?
Are you adjusting your horn button at 2:16? Now get to work on the S2620

All I can say is AWESOME!!!
I have to agree with Nuke. To follow this from the start to a in truck ride along, was unbelievable in the time frame of this project. My hat is off to you Bob. THANKS
