i thought it might end up at martins so being a nosey get got their just after it had been unloaded and covered up.
I'll say this it looked like an indy with UPSIDE DOWN TOP WISHBONES.
engine completly and utterly F#####d
hole in the bulkhead. Woodster you lucky B######d had that happened halfway down the railway straight you wouldn't have had any feet. on the end of the prop was a steel connecter about 8 in long. now i'm no engineer but that stuck on a rear sprocket output ain't gonna be very well balanced ..... not at all like martins adapter...... was gonna take a pic but martin caught me and said it would be unfair to cast any nasturshuns till he'd had chance to check it out.... I seen enough to form my own conclussions as to what happened...... and it wernt the chassis that gave way....
