Probably wont be me.
Just tried to complete the online licence and it came up I have a condition that needs clearance. Bastards. I was told if I kept taking the drugs I could participate in the wider community and no one would need to know

If it stays running for the entire weekend I just cant look past Nathaniel after the way he owned the field last year.

I'm using the hillbillies strategy and voting for myself.
Having said that I'll have to pin my hopes on Rick, lots of people would have to have major issues for me to be in with a chance.
We could be in with a chance at the tricycles though.

a 25Yr old Eddie Lawson on a scaled down YZR500.
. . . Ok I know its unlikely, - but the odds on him winning are so high it negates the other uncertainties one might try to argue.
[edit] Ohh. Ohh, I forgot to mention Husaberg on his finished bike for 2nd & for the Trifector third for maybe Ivan or that young lad Max who used to post in text language & work himself in a huff.

If you win the vote; do you get choice of your position in Super Pole???
But given the pure number of GPR engines now out there; odds on :niceone:

You can have any and all the spots you like in superpole if you are prepared to forgo the other qualifying sessions.

Well. After yesterdays efforts I think I will go to the team with the spare motor. As mine had a little hiccup on the GPR dyno. She was going good with Scotts carb. Making 5 more HP at 7 or 8 and just shy of 27 with only a couple of runs. Then somthing when clunk and that was that. I will pull it apart today to try find the problem. Bugger.
And the 300 was looking good till it stopped making power at 60hp. The ecu and loom are stopping it from doing what it can. The loom had been messed with from the previous owner so I will wait till the igntech arrives and that will fix that problem. But the potential is there.

BAN150: we were very impressed how well it ran up with Scott's FCR (until the clunk clunk clunk tap ta tap).. now get to shed and retrieve that nut that fell down the hole....
BAN300: Ran up great to 8800rpm then smacked into a wall; looking over the "other 300 dyno runs" it was performing real well (+2%). look forward to seeing the Igntech on it (80hp is the goal)...

Talk about last minute. Barrel needs honing and I have 2 bent valves, The piston not to flash but will do. More squish needed for 13000rpm and heavy forged piston.
Could have been another oil slick. Not a good look for sure.
On that note anyone sean with a nylon bung where there started used to be should fail Scrutineering. On a nylon bung holding crank case presure in any engine.
Just saying. $1.50 frost plug will never come out.
Henk
3rd March 2014, 19:31
Rich, you pay a lot less for your frost plugs than I did, I have got a couple of spares though if we decide someone needs a replacement. I'll probably try to gouge them on price though :)

There's just no sympathy is there?
I heard he has to be careful torqueing down the cylinder studs as the barrel has been bored so far there isn't much left and it just crushes up as he tightens the nuts, like a coke can, with fins
