So, 2008 just expired. How'd everyone do?

And don't forget to head on over to the new thread: http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...ions-6608.html

My 2008 reality check:

2008 Metro goals:

- properly affix rear skirts (brackets)
- make permanent partial kammback
- experiment with front air dam
- develop front wheel skirts
- test airtabs

Metro wish list:

- lowering

ForkenSwift goals:

- dissassemble, clean & repaint everything (motor, racks, engine compartment)
- install battery pack LED monitor
- add DC/DC converter (sort of - it's duct taped in place)

ForkenSwift wish list:

- add 2 more batts on a controller bypass circuit for 60v turbo mode
