MHR Mark

Going to a full cage was a sensible move I fully admit, but after spending so many hundreds (thousands?!) of hours going over tiny details of my car for the last few years, given a choice I would have taken the time and effort to get a fully custom cage made and fitted (research was done, calls were made, measurements were taken) which would arguably be stronger due to better but more expensive materials. To be forced to take an off the shelf route only to seemingly have not needed to bother following the rules...yeh, p****ed off. Martin, after removing your full cage to replace it with another full cage you have plenty of right to feel mightily aggrieved. To think this has forced a number of people to stop competing and in some cases even been the final straw to make them sell their car all together, just because they were trying to do the right thing and comply with the rules while others just didn't give a s**t but continue to be allowed to compete. What a joke. If these rules are going to be forced upon competitors for better or worse the least they can do is stick by them and actually enforce them. If they aren't enforcing safety critical matters then why do we even bother trying to comply with any rules at all other than in the spirit of fair competition.

Haha I have the same problem!Mines 528kgs - I need more carbon to get down to your car weight

I have just checked my megabusa construction manual, and the box has 180ml capacity, not what I stated above. It also states that EP80-EP90 oil should be used. It was in the bottom right hand corner of the exploded installation diagram, page 8.5, Diagram 1, with the "Gear detent do not remove" statement.

He's been nominated to take over from Nick next year!

Happy birthday Mark.

Have you seen me with a Stanley knife? You better ask the chairman.

The Westfield reverse gearbox is not sealed for life. There is a fill hole/bolt on the driers side,about halfway up, (there are two allen key bolts and you remove the top one to fill) which you fill until the oil dribbles out. I believe it is 800ml from empty. The transmission tunnel panels to the side and above the box, should only be held on with self tapping screws to allow removal and access. Also the box vents to air, a small pin hole on the back of the box, just above the Westfield logo, so there will be oil residue sprayed about. A lot of people have modified the outlet and feed into a small catch tank to keep things clean. There are three other RGB manufacturers, Quaife, Nova and MNR, which may have been fitted. James

your be surprised what he can repair
