Part completed chassis

The chassis of the BE3 is hand crafted in high strength corrosion resistant steel.  Through careful design the main chassis assembly weighs in at an incredibly light 52Kg.  Nelson is particularly proud of this achievement because the BE3 chassis is designed to handle many times the horsepower of the BE1 chassis, is torsionally stiffer, yet it weighs roughly the same.

Sponsors are invited to underwrite showing of the vehicle in the spring of 2003 at the Bexhill 100 event in May and others to be arranged in the UK.  The car will be available for rolling displays early next year.  Contact us with your interest.
