So we've had a little setback. We had intended a tuning session at the world wide leader of electric toy dyno tuning. Unfortunately a tragic incident at that shop has us rethinking where a suitable place is to get tuned.

A quote from my son this morning on our commute to school.
My gator is probably faster than the Daewoo, right?

:lol: The poor Daewoo never gets any respect. (But everyone seems to want to drive it anyway.)

For the record, it was a question rather than a statement of fact.

C'mon man. Don went out of his way to get us the sporty version of the Daewoo, the one with the 4 cylinder engine.

So how am I going to "fab" up a wing for this thing? It needs to be removable, light, and not poke a kids eye out.

Get a slab of Styrafoam. Shape it with a Surform ("cheese grater" file) - just like a surfboard!
