I'm still on Cougar OS 0.9!

Adam said I should probably hold off on updating the software for at least a few more days as he has another version up his sleeve. I am interested in the over-rev protection, but I also want to re-rig the hardware for Cougar-Controlled pre-charge/main contactor on/off.

I have had a weird issue with how the controller reacts to the tires on ice and snow. Since I actually know a little about tweaking the controller now, I should be able to data log what actually happens, and use that to figure out how to improve winter handling.
