Purdy, it doesn't seem like lagging to me, but I've only been in one other Model A for comparison....it sure seems like everything is functioning as it should. I've even tried it out earlier today on a bit of a downhill grade, it coasts quietly in 3rd but starts up as soon as you press pedal...
Dan Partain drove it a while back and we both agreed it felt like something in drivetrain but it wasn't clear from were...haven't gotten back to finding the cause till now...
