Who would be the person I should be talking to at your club.
Maybe I could come to one of your club meetings and discuss our ideas further. When and where are your club meetings held?? :)
Night nav runs would probably come down to whether insurance allows it,(hopefully yes is the answer)

If you use the orbit eyes or jonny joints (same thing different size) you will have to get new mains made wider at least the width of the orbit eye and to approx 49mm so as you have a press fit tolerence .
