I thankfully got rid of my Hunter. I remember it had an idler gear that would wear out in after a few weeks of racing and make a nasty grating sound as you went round the track. If things got really bad, you had to drive in reverse to get any power!
Changed if for a tufnel/brass replacement eventually, but the car wasn't great , I don't hold any emotions for it. My Optima however... Still in the cupboard. Looking at the Optima restoration makes me want to make mine all clean and shiny again.
