  4. Club Traders & Sponsors

    1. Current Traders & Sponsors

      Here is where you can find our current Traders and Sponsors. 

      Rules and Guidelines for Traders:

      • the forum is not a shop, catalogue or auction site, you may post with specific special offers or deals in your Traders section.
      • When advertising an offer/deal please state a clear price for the item(s)
      • Please do not "spam" the forum, a high number of posts in a short period of time makes it very difficult for members, particularly those using mobile devices to actually view and use the forum.
      • If you have a large number of items or services to sell, please provide a link to your sales web site, eBay shop etc, do not insert individual posts for each item.
      • as a business, you may have a broad range of products. Most Club members will tend to ignore posts not at least slightly involved with the ownership, maintenance, storage of or competing in a Westfield. Please limit your forum posts to this range of products and services.
      • As a Trader, you can post anywhere in the Club's forum. However, please keep any thread you start relevant to the section of the forum it's in. 
      • As a Trader, you may also make relevant posts on other member threads, where you are either using your specific knowledge or technical expertise to solve a problem, or, where you draw the attention of the original poster to a product or service you sell, which to the best of your ability, you believe would solve their problem. Don't forget though, that no means no, if a member does not wish to follow your advise, please leave it there.
      • Please do not use the PM system to spam members with unsolicited advertising/offers.

      I think they’ve lost the plot now. The time and effort doing the printed board would have been far better spent designing an actual PCB and getting one made. Prototype all the circuitry on breadboard, freeze the design, build. Given the crazy amount invested in re-inventing a really crappy version (printing solder) of an already very well designed (standard PCB) wheel just feels gratuitous.    Sunken cost maybe?? Is the entire point now just YT vids??

      Westfield of old and their parent company Potenza (which was owned by Julian Turners father Frank) have built or been involved in more than a few designs of electric seven over the years.   The first in the early 2000’s was Wisper. Which featured a composite chassis similar to the FW400.   In 2010 was the 4wd hybrid built in collaboration with Warwick university and took part in the Goodwood festival of speed that same year.   https://warwick.ac.uk/newsandevents/pressreleases/worldfirst_hybrid_westfield/   Later came the iracer in 2013 which originally was intended to race in the ev-cup which was planned as support series to formula e. The stretched Lycra body was an unusual feature.   https://amp.theguardian.com/environment/damian-carrington-blog/2011/apr/28/electric-cars-motorsport-racing   Finally there’s the Sport E which a few of us will have seen in recent years.   https://westfield-sportscars.co.uk/blog/development-2/sport-e-10
