I ran all over town doing errands, stopped by a good friends sons auto tint place to see if he could do a clear bra on the Beast and the cost. As I was getting ready to leave he commented about how she must be insane when I get on it... so of course I opened the exhaust cutouts got a roiling start and floored it. Damn throttle stuck wide open, brakes didn't help much with the 499 ft. lbs. of torque, so I shut off the key and stood on the brakes... Nice to know I have the 4 wheel disk set up right, stopped straight and short...
Truck is parked until I figure out why the throttle linkage is heavily binding up, must likely a broken motor mount....
