Today I bought a new battery for the Van Dieman. The old one was gel, five years old and shot. The new one is lithium....same power, 12# vs 3#. Also adjusted the belts so I can get in it by myself. Did some reading about how the digital dashboard works. About three thousand functions of which I just want water temp, oil press., tach, and if possible oil temp. I think I can time my laps and print out corner speeds etc.

Any how, all loaded up for an early morning drive to Colombus to run on the former air field, now cummins test track.

Woooo hoooo!
