Re: was 5000 spoiler

["Joseph Rae" <quattro@ptinet.net>]

Ned Ritchies BEAST 5000tq has the 5000 version of the 4000 trunk spoiler.
The main differece is that the 5000 version does not have the notch in the
center for the trunk lock. The 4000 tail will fit on the 5000 but looks
wierd in my opinion
you can see  a picture of the beasts tail here
