Damn, what a project. I wonder how well it actually performs.

Re: Nice piece of fabricating (F20Cteg)
I've seen this before...if I recall some of his suspension geometry sucks. I'm not gonna go through it all again, but I thought I recalled looking at this about 8 months ago and there were some aspects I thought could be improved. Overall, it's a pretty good project though for sure.

The guy is not an engineer and he did nearly all the work himself; you'll hear only praise from me.

Until he crashes it because he made the suspension wrong.
What's that saying, don't confuse craftsmanship with engineering? He's a damn good fabricator, but he got a lot of the engineering wrong. From what I recall this was all brought to his attention by people who knew more about it than him (or I) and he chose to ignore the input.
