I wonder what the excursion on to the grass was about ? There didn't seem to be a corner there, so did he just carelessly run off the road or what ?

Nicely done and a great plug for Morgan, as well as the 3-Wheeler. uk

Due to the placement of the camera (and mic) at the front, you don't really get a truly authentic feel of what it is like to drive. You don't hear ANY engine noise or mechanical thrash at all in this black prototype, as it is completely un-silenced with straight through pipes. evil

All you can hear are the exhausts, though it does die back a bit when you are cruising, but under acceleration it sounds fantastic though it is pretty noisy!

The development team are working on silenced pipes, but we (Asbo and I) advised that they should be easily convertible to these straight through pipes, to give the best of both worlds...

I must say, it sounded really good...Agressive!

I wonder about is off road excursion as well. Either he spun, or jinked to the right, for what ever reason, instead of to the left then over reacted.

As for turns in America? Bring it on! Spend a few hours driving in my part of the world...LOL

That is odd, because it is a link to the MMC M3W site. Try this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CvVr9jU4I0&feature=player_embedded
