shame i missed you too ben, (there's always next year) and good to meet you kev, i'm glad you liked my use of plywood and upvc plastic on the rad shroud, you never know it might catch on when the others see it.
even though the carrier was a long way from being battleworthy i'm glad i took a chance and went to beltring with it, i had a great 4 days and met some good people along the way, although it got a little stressy at times with the odd fault showing itself such as poor steering, poor brakes, no charging, carb not set up right, random gear selection regardless of stick position resulting in total loss of gears during arena display , no instruments, no tank breather and last but not least a loose nut on the steering wheel. other than that it was fine.

looking forward to next year

rick
