Well after dinner I put a drop of steam oil in the steam dome, oiled up all the moving bits and filled the propane tank.

It goes!!

I took about a minute and a half of video as it warmed up doing several laps.
Then I watched it for about five more minutes then took another short video.
Here is the second video



After this I let it run another minute or so and shut it off, it was getting close to the ten minute mark and I didn't know how much water was left.

Pretty good for a first run.
I would caution not to try to run on blocks, the wheels will lock up unless there is even pressure on all six at the same time.
You may be able to run it in if you have a proper rolling road but the track worked just fine. My circle is about 66" diameter, or 33" radius, the minimum recommended radius per the instructions is 422 mm or about 16.6"
