Well, even though the goal of this project is to build a speed test TT-02B unit, I just couldn't resist going out with it for a quick off road test run, when the sun was high and the time was perfect. I was also too tempted too do another on road speed test (coming up soon) even though I did not expect any changes in top speed with the new upgrades. But well, it's a good way to test if anything binds and everything is running smoothly.
