I've only partially wired one or two motors. This beast has dual magnetos so 2x the wires. Need to figure out a couple things but the wires are in the holes.

Wow!!! My apologies for not catching this one John!!! Great progress so far bub! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: Something I usually do to my tires that helps out a little with the realism for drag cars is to dry brush some ground up black pastel onto the sidewalls after the flat coat is applied. Gives it a slightly track dirty look. Build on brutha!

Outstanding work on the harness, John! I second Torben that more photos of your work would be welcome.
