Formula Three wrap - Glen Williams

[neil_cb125t]

Well done glen,

your experience and faith in your abilities ( both on track and in the workshop ) really are showing through.
It gives us less experienced guys a good kick up the arse to get out there and take on this nationals thing!

How you going to do that? ...put a 600 engine in it or something?

I heard your triple blew up a while ago...interesting. My 20 year old thing can still do 7 laps with a blown head gasket!!

We are going to replace the gasket and a few other bits..... you wont be pulling away down the straights after my ife savings is gone... who wants to retire anyway?


Again well done - will buy you a beer for sure.

Yes it did, nothing to do with being a 450 though, just a failure which would have happened had it been a 600 still. Running fine now I put another piston in it.

Great effort ya GINGA by you and your crew

A failure that led to it becoming a 450 you mean? Much the same sort of circumstances as my bike

[Deano]

Shot Mr Williams !!

Nope a failure that led it to becoming a 300, well maybe a 375, the dodgy cylinder still had about half compression.

Nah mate , thats what ive done to Steevies bike lol . Its gonna have a shakedown on Sunday so ill let you know what its like. CBR400rr frame and a CBR600r engine.
Neils bike is undergoing a full rebuild plus some additional power enhansments, it will be a goodie.

Yeah a few crashes and some hard learned lessons (bike damage = expensive to fix) was a good experience. At teretonga i got to within 0.5s of the thread starter/champion. Levels should have been better but hard crash in qualifying. Next year I think I can give them a hurry up

[Kiwi Graham:Me]

Well done Glen an awesome seasons racing and well done for finding the only power outlet at HD
Good to catch up with ya.

So your frame made a difference?, looks great.

Frame took some time to get right, but in the end it was working well. Very pleased to be part of doing something a little different & getting it to prove its worth at a competitve level out on a race track.

[codgyoleracer]

good stuff glen!
coming back for a 4th?

As long as i dont get too fat over winter...............

[codgyoleracer]

Good on ya Glen, the 3 of ya always put on a great show.
Now about that postie bike,

You mean the "GW01" ? :-)

[slowpoke]

Brilliant effort Mr Williams! I just love the beer fuelled ingenuity, exactly what the class is all about and long may it continue. You thought about marketing those frames?

Strength of beer appeared to be directly related to flex of frame initially ....... , selling , yes we have a jig capable of quantity production. US$ value was around 3500 i think ready to ship.
