This must be a major safety concern, has anyone taken this up with MMC directly?
Mark Baldwin and Steve Morris form MMC often re-used their standard "nobody complains about it so it's not an issue" response to me and I doubt they care about their unchanged to this day fuel tank design flaw.
My guess is that it will take a charred corpse and heirs determined enough to sue MMC before any acknowledgement of this occurs.
Wasn't it a fatality and a cracked chassis that inspired MMC to respond to that issue that design flaw?
My fuel tank mount fix was one of the most expensive, in a long list of expensive fixes, due to MMC's engineering incompetence but I wasn't going to sell my M3W on before it was as good as I could make it, and MMC was almost no help at all.
I do believe that the new Italian owners of MMC are watching this topic, while knowing that acknowledging the issue and offering a remedy is cost prohibitive, until the grieving heirs and their Barristers come knocking...
