That is awesome (and crazy!)! When I first read about this I figured you were full of it, but now that I see it I gotta say I am really impressed . What is the reduction with those sprockets, and how fast can you go?

Reduction? I dunno. (marks down on to-do list)

As for speed, we're talking slightly faster than walking. There's video at

But there's already a discussion at http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...r+driv etrain, so I figure it might be the spot to go to.

Oh yeahn, I wrote down somewhere to watch that movie. I think you posted it while I was incredibly close to going over my bandwidth limit. Now I will stop talking about it and go watch it.
Thanks!
