Great! What times are you planning to be there on the Sat and the Sun?

no doubt there will be some last minute adjustments to do on saturday before heading to the track, so maybe 11am or so. are you coming down fluoroman?

I hope to come, as I am, at heart, a 50cc man, there's something quite noble about the struggle to make engines that are about 1/3 the size of most people's lawnmower engine go faster...

you've got it in a nutshell there. and when the scooter class is split, the 50cc scooter body class may then be called "The Noble Class".

two of our 3 bikes are still 50cc, only the Dio is 75cc. With a bit of recent porting its now getting into its powerband at 70km/h.. think it needs to be geared down a little.

What an awesome day! Best result was Andreas with a 5th place! Not too bad for a scooter with less than half the displacement of the rest of the field! Jamie and his Lets did the team proud too. I cant wait to get out there next race meeting

yep that mongreloid masterpiece is filter material barely kept together with zip ties and staples.. quick replacement for the pod which was knocked off by a broken belt at 8000rpm or so.

anyway great fun on the day, back more competitive next time!
