No more, just nova,quaife and westfield now quaife being the best as no chain inside like nova and westfield

Joyrider and MNR i think, at least used to be...

At this moment in time we are free on that date, but things change quickly in our household

honeycomb_mesh.stl Here is the free mesh I found and used.

I didnt realise it was tricky, glad i have a reverse box then! I think theres only really 3 reverse boxes though? The westfidld one, the nova one and the quaife? Do we know of any other ways of getting reverse on the bike powered cars? Apart from pushing!

The first Curborough breakfast club meeting is on tomorrow morning. The Austin 7 owners are on track, too! The weather is looking good, so see you there.

Rear main seal now replaced. Clutch arrived today too! Be a shame to hide this away.

First run of the year and loving it!!

Difficult to fit an electric reverse to a westfield tunnels very narrow compared to mk no where to mount motor i think a couple of westie owners have done it at the front end but not easy.took mine to mk sportscars and they told me to forget it not happening.
