Guy over here has one that he uses in the rally. Don't have much info on it, but it looks slow when i've seen it in the past. Probably well suited for track use

not enough torque to move an E30 quickly, or in fact anything much heavier than a kit car. . .

Can anyone suggest how to test if the boot lights are staying on with the boot shut?
