    Sidecar swingers?

    Any one out there on Kiwibiker from Dunedin or Chch that would like to swing on a f1 sidecar and put in financially into an outfit and running costs?

    You cover the costs, and give me the thottle, and you have a deal . .

    Have swung a couple times on a speedway sidechair, fucking hell of a rush!

    Now try and imagine a race between 17 and 40 x longer doing both lefts and rights while travelling twice the speed

    not hard to imagine. but you dont really get quite as sideways . . . though Id give that a go!!
    plus, the road going ones have brakes. we didnt have that luxury either

    I wouldnt mind giving them a go, but simply, theres few people I would trust enough to be on the throttle if i was in the chair on an f1.

    The person riding it has to have just as much trust in the person in the chair

    They also slide around a lot more than you might think

    If this sounds like you, hit me up! You'll be needing a couple K in the bank tho..

    Trying to get something going, but its hard doing it by yourself on below minimum wage income eh.. Need to rob a bank

    I think if you'd just titled it "Swingers wanted" you would have got a better response
