A really good manta video is the in-car Manx one with Ari Vatannen, especially the bit where he clips a wall puncturing a front tyres and ends up going through a very narrow cattle grid without slowing down, then still goes on to finish the stage at full speed. All before they had mousse filled tyres
good pics gary,pulling wheelies neil,i know exactly which bit you mean m8 brilliant! hmmmm,wonder how cheaply the xe lump could be thrown in a manta for? on a set of carbs... i cant stop watching this one! Edited by: riley
There's a Manta on Ebay at the minute was around 100.... check the classifieds on the Owners club site as there's about 15 on there at the minute one of which is already spec'd up.
thanks claypole just tryna get on the site now but cant? im thinking of buying one to throw an xe lump in while i still run the cab,then sell the cab and use the manta as an everyday car. really want a raddo g60,but i just feckin hate front wheel drive,it bores me! and i reckon the manta is the mutts nuts,with a bit of added poke Edited by: riley
