Yep, its three belts, the rear belts are same as the Cat XLS and front to back belt exact same as the Maxima....

Thought it was time to reignite this thread and throw up a couple of pictures of my PB Ace. As I've posted elsewhere I'd love to recreate the mid motor PB Ace at some point, very little information to go off other than the one pic in an early magazine which showed the prototype car with the mid moto...

Great car, superb period Brimod shocks and Gisom alloy wheels are a real bonus and really set the car off. I had the PB Eco as a kid and raced indoors just before getting an Optima Mid, brings back great memories, I always preferred this shell between the MM and Eco, may have to buy a Stiletto shell...

Always liked the look of these myself too. It almost felt like the pre-cursor to the Optima Mid being released, and once it did the MRC was hugely overshadowed and faded from memory. That was a shame I think as this car initially showed masses of potential. I remember it actually being confused for...

Thought I’d share a picture to the group of a Mini Mustang I had as a kid back in roughly 1989 I reckon, body was a bit different. I bought the car as a kid secondhand from a local bloke who had bought but not gotten on to well. I stripped and rebuilt the car and enjoyed using and racing at our loca...

I'm thinking, paint it red, with tape stripes on the outside...... that red fogging seems pretty bad. Could mix it up somewhat, with translucent red backed with something interesting.... but it doesn't look like much chance of being able to paint light colours on the inside. Interested to see where...

Ok here's a stock 2wd Mini Mustang, can't be many of these about, appears to have had very little use and will be treated to a clean and a fresh pair of rear tyres. The original tyres are super dried out, can only assume that the car has been stored and baked in a hot attic. Rest appears in good ove...

Fast forward a bit further and i started looking for more magazines images of PB Ace's being run and raced not only UK based which seemed thin on the ground but also over in Europe. Anyone remember that 80' band BTW :lol: Scoured the web and came across a few mag features, spotted a few cars and the...

So whilst my CAD effort wasn't bad and I guess I was getting there very slowly but surely, however thankfully my buddy Wade Skelton was taking an interest and was soon onboard on track. He got the bug with the PB Mid Ace and we had a fair few discussions on the concept. Wade over in Texas built a fe...
