In a way they are more realistic as the speed is slower than with an SE1-3

Good vids...my first thought was nah couldn't be a minor, probably a minor2.

Man, that one was really crankin', too. You must've had some pretty good
fire under it. I think it could've powered even tools!

It is surprising the amount of power a 'Minor' has. Well done. Thumbs up!
