The Piranha is in the middle of being upgraded to 96volts. Still twin
eteks with s/p switching. Regearing of course. The transmission is
gone. A new control panel is in the works, along with some safer
shutdown circuits. New brush assembly for the one I destroyed while
hauling. Longer/stronger sprocket studs. Maybe some more bodywork.
Toying with the idea of hydraulic disk brakes, but to quote Burt
Munroe, 'I want to go, not stop'.

My track opens in 9 days, but I might not see opening day.....
