Hey Mitchell,

Possible reason for fuel leaking from carb is that you floats may be stuck,
remove carb bowl and give a good clean out, might as well clean main jet while you're at it with compressed air. Keep everything real clean.
As for bike slowing, make sure you running a good synthetic oil, such as TTS, and in the right ratios (max 40:1), check spark plug for colour, ideal is a light tan. If it is white then it is running too lean, jet may be blocked.
Otherwise contact Greg, www.xminimoto.co.nz, who is your Wellington race organisor & he probably help.
