    Congratulations on hitting the 70mph goal. Some people out there may not get what a big deal that is but it's like you said. You were able to take a 13hp cement mixer engine , pair it with a cvt and manual transmission and with a good tune, and Bam. You drove a 13hp vehicle with a new top speed of 70. That is very amazing to me. I'm very glad to have followed along since day 1. What a ride and what's best of all is that your going to go even bigger. Can't wait for the next episode. 🥳🎉

And the SOUND! The drive-by´s are my cup of tea! Sounds very angry, I like that. Determination a good driving force, I restored a Koga Myata race bicycle for under 400€ and it drives SO GOOD. Hard to let go but it is for a client, he loves every bit of it. I promised a bicycle to win races with and was determined to put together something like new or better- so rewarding to meet Your goals and make people happy. Gives me nice kicks. Congratiolations to this really one of a kind car, I love it.

    Tips for buying holiday cookies
    Order as early as you can. With supply chain issues and price hikes, many bakeries and private sellers are only accepting pre-orders, and once they reach capacity for the season, that’s it.
    Remember that commercial cookies are probably made with different ingredients than your ancestors used. They might be baked with shortening or margarine, and grocery store vanilla, whereas an elite bakery or independent baker might only use the best butter and exotic spices.
    Prices will not be cheap. In my own search for desserts, I found that holiday cookies generally cost a minimum of $1 each, and often $2, and much more if you are buying sumptuously decorated ones. Shipping is often added on top of that. But if you’re buying something that will serve as a gift, party favor, or the centerpiece of your holiday spread, the added cost is worth it.
