this page has clear pictures of andy moore's car, take a look at the orientation of the spur gear hub to know what i mean :
andy moore's cyclone

i hope this is clear.

Thanks Sideways
I could not understand how come I had to have the pinion half off the motor armature This is great help. Okay so now my car is not complete for at least the next 1 hour while I correct the Manual mistake.

Ps how did andy get a car that look's exactly like mine
Thanks
