So the opinion of some who have an issue, is more valid than others who like the Car? Those who have an affinity or great fondness not tarnished by bumpsteer because they either don't have it or are happy to live with/drive around must not Post? Maybe you are saying that no one should debate or question anything you or others now post re this 'issue'?
I'm afraid you are doing just what AQM so boringly repeated ad nauseum and trying to stifle others from voicing their own thoughts and opinions that may not be in line with yours. Bad show.
Interesting post KenK, particularly as you are a new member of the forum and not one of the much maligned 'old-guard!' From PM's received it seems that your views do resonate with more than a few other TM members.
My 3W, one of the very early ones, does have some bump-steer but imho is far from being dangerous and if and when Morgan does come up with a fix, then I'll have it fitted, until then I'm more than happy to drive the car as is.
On the weight issue Paul, our FW400 had a carbon body from new and with a carbon exhaust weighs in at 410 kg wet. I wasn't aware that Caterham had built production BEC's, but if they did I guess that these must have had a motorbike gearbox, so comparing them with a M3W with an MX5 gearbox (which was originally designed for a pick-up!) is not really a fair comparison, especially as the S&S lump is hardly lightweight!
In any case, having seen the photo on Blatchat of a recent Seven crash I'm quite happy that our track day car has a carbon, rather than a 'proper' chassis, just as I am also pleased that the M3W has a certain heft in its build, as I did not buy it as a track car.
We pays our money and ...
