looking good...the steering is easy.

Thanx.But the problem im having with the steering is first i had to tap half of the steering arms then the long arm flex's so much that the wheels will only turn a little and only to the left.I have fixed every thing else.Just have the steering and body left.

Why would tubeless tires need tubes? no valve stem? Is that a drill a hole kinda deal, or is it a nightmare?

That's not me.The only sports i like have a engine.My brother is a big Yankee fan so the wife thought it would be nice.If RD made RDP shirts in his size thats what he would have worn.
