A ride in a BEC
starterman - 9/4/13 at 08:33 PM

I was just wondering if there is any BEC owners in Cornwall who would be willing to let me look over there car and possibly take me for a short spin. Iam trying to get the gear together to build one but before I start spending big money on an engine etc, I think I should experience one.

Cheers
Mike

Have a look through the "Adopt A Builder" thread, might find someone.

That'd be nothing to do with it being a BEC but because the chassis would be scraping the ground.

OP, you'd be bet going to Stoneleigh show next month and trying to blag a ride or two there. I know it's a long drag up from the SW but if you're planning a build, then you realy shouldn't miss it. You'll see loads of cars and get plenty of ideas/inspiration.

Someone might even hold you by your feet whilst you're hanging upside-down off the back of their convertible and do donuts in the carpark!
