It's called golf because all the other four letter words were taken.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

Look's great, you sure work fast! I see you mounted your console on top of a box. What is in it or did you do that for easier access? B.B.

Did it just so I could rest my right arm on it with out having to slump over to the side.

Thanks for the compliments. I personally rate it as a "3 footer" (i.e. looks sweet from 3 feet). This was a real learning project I built just to drive. I now know 1000 things I would have spent more time on or done differently If I was building for it for show.
