Default Day 365 of build - First Engine Start
It has taken a year since delivery to get to first engine start, but today was a great day as the engine started on the first attempt. For more details check out my blog (link in signature).

Best early Christmas present ever!

And yes it did happen here is the video to prove it

Congratulations on a major milestone!
There's nothing like that sound to inspire you to get it on the road. Looks like we'll welcome another west-sider pretty soon.
