    Graduation of Daytona 720 - First Drive video

    I've seen 'graduation' posts on the forum before - does this video constitute the requirements for graduation? Aside from calibration and a wheel alignment, the car is complete.



    Thanks!
    Jonas

    I want to know why you didn't leg it out a little! I couldn't have resisted, had it been me.

    SOON! This was the very first run and we didn't have much runway. The car needs a good alignment, once we have that and some space we can test out the 'legs'.

    Wow. That's beautiful. You definitely paid attention to every detail. Colors look great. Your caution is well placed. No reason to wind it up if it may change course unexpectedly. But, once it's aligned, you do have to post THE video we are all waiting for.
