Do they still have this at Sultan ?, it would piss all over others for speed at traction rallys as it was that well maintained, Mech2 and a stoker in 1970.

Yes...it's still there...and it still works.

I worked on it after Mechs course (1985), brilliant 3 months, taking it out for "road tests" around the bazaars, stopping at pubs, crates in the water tanks and holding all the traffic up
