Yea my bike is a very early 1989 RS should be on Wire wheels, Engine is a TF 125 with a TS gear box, the Kart carb works very well with the RS shock mount being just in the wrong place for a normal carb plus they are so easy to adjust with only two screws, last time on the dyno it had 23hp at the wheel and the bike weight is 76KG wet, The power is strong through the rev range, just what you need for Kart tracks Lots of the mods to make faster have been suggestions from TEEZEE from the ESE team.

just think if all 3 of us going for the number 1 plate at that round , what a race it would be ! even though it did get close to that, regan just took it that bit easyer the pusy lol even though now there is the talk of another round ? guess he would of like to know that at the start of the round lol . close pass by be in the first race sorry but not that bad on camera .. you made sure in race 2 it not going to happen again lol good race! pushed my bike and fire up yesterday !! no idea why it stoped

I need to get my old nail up to pace and join the fun.

I know the pain, I thought my ignition was fired but is going fine now.
It must have all been the reed that it chewed up.

Mike K said he felt something hit him, maybe that was part of it.
I found some of it in the bottom of the crank case and there were plenty of fibres coating the exhaust port.

This weekends mission is to rework the barrel/head join for a spigot fit to keep things in place and avoid the

(Headbanging) action I had.

Hopefully will be going for Kaitoke on Sunday.

Do qualifying times count?

**F5 Dave** · 8th May 2014, 18:03

Always have before.

Not officially but its bucket racing so its not really official so I guess it does.

Might have to start marking tyres to stop everyone using qualifing rubber just to get the lap records though...

Classic. More like marking them when they are 5 years old and unsafe.

**F5 Dave** · 9th May 2014, 10:09

. .um that would exclude most of the field. heck I virtually never have tyres that new - Moneybags

In C grade, times have changed ..

Time for golden boy control tyres?

**chrisc** · 8th July 2014, 21:15

Aaron Hassan put down a 28.806 on Darren's RSFXR F4 bike and Nathaniel Diprose did a 30.486 on their F5 RS bike on Sunday going anti clock wise at Mt Wellington. Blistering!

I noticed there are some records and results up on the AMCC page, here: CLICK LINK

Quite correct Chris - Aaron Hassan managed a 28.806 on Sunday, breaking Gary Cunningham's previous record by a mere 16 thousandths of a second.

However ... Nathanael's F5 lap record was actually a 30.376 in race 1. He broke his own previous lap record by almost a second. Anyone prepared to bet against a 29 second F5 lap?

And ... Brenton Love and Kamil Chodor broke the Sidecar lap record by 0.7s with a 34.046.

All details on the AMCC website as you mentioned.

Like Henk said yesterday, it wasn't a particularly warm track and we can be sure the times are going to continue to drop even further. Should be a fun and tough season!

Cheers for keeping that updated. Any idea where I can see the results of the November 2013 2 hour?
