Does it drive yet? If so, weight it up and turn it on carpet (and videotape it). If it doesn't, your main concern should be getting it there. It looks easy enough to switch in omnis if you decide you need them. Either way, I'd suggest you stop extolling the hypothetical performance without recording the actual one. That's plenty to do itself, good luck!
