IT RUNS!

Just thought I'd celebrate by telling everyone that after 3 years in the making it finally runs! Woohoo!

To all those of you who are still a long way off this moment and getting frustrated and disheartened with your build - stick to it, the moment is well worth it!

No video unfortunately, I wasn't actually expecting it to start as it was the first try - it just fired almost instantly and scared the living daylight out of me! It really is a brilliant point to get to - all those horrible jobs left to do seem far less tedious now!

You'll be needing to update your "Building:" status as well, you now have a rather smart looking sports car, not a "pile of rusty scrap"
