The return of sidecars... Again

**Gazzza** · 23rd September 2011, 20:23

Hi all, just a quick sidecar update... Thanks to Henk I will have a decent engine to get our third rig up and running hopefully in the next month or so. Also have some interest form a couple of people who want to start building a chair plus Moooos vt250 rig under way, so next year we could have a real competition. If we could just get another couple of people keen who knows maybe we could run a proper class in 2012. There was even talk that JC might make one... Now that would be worth seeing. Oh and our third rig will most likely be short a pilot and swinger... So if anyone has ever wanted to give it a go then your more than welcome to have a go.

Awesome guys. Yes Henk mentioned something about trike. I would be keen to give piloting a go at some stage. I loved hanging off the side but it just seemed like hard work

How old do you have to be to compete? Not sure how old Stacey and Kelly are, but I know Stacey loved her go, and am pretty sure Kelly enjoyed his stints as well (even if he did tumble off at one point lol). Hope I got the kids' names right.

Hi ya Dutchee, not to sure about the age thing but the kids were great on the side, we were pushing the rigs pretty hard and they seemed to be enjoying it. The third rig might be a good one for getting people onto the track, maybe just push it onto the grid and let who ever wants to have a go hop on.

Stacey has asked when you're coming back, she's definitely keen. Also getting her used to a big bike, instead of the pocket bike, but she wasn't there last month (guessing weather and netball was keeping her away)
