Andrzej Posted May 28 Posted May 28 Managed to driver both this afternoon - Westfield hour trip around nearby hills, MNR 15 min as it is not road legal and screaming!! ..ouch.. really loud on revs . In the end eletric reverse on MNR failed (even when IT was working , caused so much electric power drops, so voltage drops to 5#6 V and ecu and engine stops) , I was never convicted to this design (starter motor + gear wheel on propshaft). Tempted to get rid of reverse (bike engine CBR1000rr) . But maybe Is there any proper and realiable reverse solution for BEC cars??? Or just - get out of car and push? 6 Quote

At the risk of getting hanged, drawn and quartered, I have to say I really like the look of an MNR. Stands out from the Sevens crowd nicely 1 Quote

Flying Carrot Steve Posted May 31 Posted May 31 Not so much a snap of my Westfield, more a snap of the bl**** traffic my Westfield was stuck in trying to get to Malvern today. That being said my thoughts go out to the families of those who lost their lives in that horrific crash on the M5 last night. Dreadful. 1 2 Quote
