Ok i used to run a Maguire Mini in sprints and hill climbs, my mechanic was a guy by the name of James Ebdon, who in-between sorting my car, also ran a Motus Kart with a Bultaco 250 single in the 500 class at Prescott Hill climbs, the reason he got around the rules was that the Motus had suspension, sort of (rubber doughnuts) bit like early minis, and a long Wing on the back and also front wing, some thing to do with the 500 class, length requirement rules...now this caused a load of controversy and was sooooooooo fast up the hill!!! The other 500 cars were Jap500 V twins and a fare bit slower....so i think the Motus was banned....but i do remember another car/kart/spacframe? came along, with a screeeeming snowmobile engine in it.....was it a Konig sp engine? call age concern! i can`t remember much more at the moment, must be the medication....but will post if i remember any more.
