10.01.2022 Over the last few months, we have been giving our Sunday workhorse some TLC. We have replaced the motor with an electric start motor, made some bracket adjustments, and added some additional circuits for future lights on the body. The XPT will be getting a fresh new look after the mechanical run in. We are looking forward to getting her back on the tracks!

09.01.2022 Update: Weather is likely going to impact our opportunity for Public Running tomorrow. Please check back later for an update.
