Just out of curiosity, why do you need to trade the speedo? Why not just try and swap the motor for a 13.5?

Because it has no reverse and im a sh** driver :o .. I wish I had not gone to PBM for it ... its a rediculious combination for a newbie with a buggy at Mansfield ...

Thats what marshalls are for :p

Joking, I have reverse, but you have to be really careful not to reverse into someone, they get a bit cross :thumbsup:

Any chance of sticking with the motor and just backing off the power in the speedo settings and dropping down to a smaller pinion?

Or turning down the throttle end points if your set can do that.

Turned the end points down, it was at 60 percent but was still to agressive, not tried a smaller pinion.

Still available for trade

You need to turn it down even more then.
What speedo are you using? End points for throttle and brake can be 140 and 160% respectively. If yours are set to 100% then they need to be adjusted.

The reventon club spec has reverse.

I will give you a help the best I can on Saturday if you wish.

Thanks Chris for your offer, ive traded it away and robbed the 13.5 from my SCT into the buggy ... much much better for a novice such as myself :thumbsup:
