    So, your "overnight" success happened after a bunch of long, hard hours, weeks and months of work, "all done on your own" with a bunch of help from others who pitched in beyond what was expected.
    Very, very well done I say!
    I genuinely don't know the outcome of the race against Frarmtruck, at this point, but in my opinion you're a winner, regardless.
    Keep it up.
    P.S. Ripper vid mate, in editing ,starring and narrating.

    I only have one thing to say to y’all farm truck was an amazing thing when I first saw it come on year lovely from China or Japan. Please forgive me there, back in the day we built a 57 Chevy pick up truck with a 402 under the hood and nobody should touch us. It was the fastest machine in the valley. I’m a tell you something, took a 69 Chevelle and stripped it and installed every piece into 857 Chevy pick up truck defenders with flapping to win, but it would kick ass really saw form truck. It reminded me of my time back in the day, it was like my story being reread, thanks for the memories farm truck. LOL today me and my family build some pretty serious machines around Pennsylvania here little boys come down they’re doing yawls turbos. Used to live right here in my area. Pretty cool I wish I would’ve moved west so I was a sport move. Hey, y’all have a good one keep the shiny side up is the dirty side down.

      I sure didn’t make the rules, they did. I complied, but no I didn’t watch for them to move. I watched a hundred videos of the Farmtruck leaving and noticed a pattern in something they do. And I took a shot at it. They confirmed their tire cracked before mine but mine being small tire the car reacted faster. It didn’t matter because they had too much power for me anyways!
