  <other-notes>The car was designed for 45 MPH commute and I am also using an automatic transmission with a custom designed coupler. FB1-4001A is being installed June 2009 along with a new control tray, and AC/PS will be setup later. 

As the June 24, 2009 the EV is "Done". I still have a few things to do, but it is drivable and is now a daily driver after having it's maiden voyage on a real trip with a highway and hills and passing with flying colors.

I have a Zilla 1K-LV on the way to replace the Kelly, which just won't hold up to the hills.</other-notes>
