    Scum at the track: they are amongst us!

    So...I'm driving home tonight from Taupo, towing my new tandem trailer, when I start to hear a vibrating sound from the trailer...the vibrations start to get worse so I pull off the motorway just in time to see one wheel wobbling like it was about to come off. I pull over and check it to find it has only x1 bolt left on it (just) and x2 studs completely broken off from the wheel spinning on the studs with no bolts! I immediately check the other x3 wheels to find every one of them had x2 bolts missing from them!? All of them were taken off exactly the same and the ones that were left were starting to come loose too!

    This is the second time this has happened to me in the last few race meetings. The last time I actually lost the left wheel when driving back from the final round of the Nationals. I was coming back up the bombay's when the left wheel started to vibrate and make a horrid noise so I began to pull over off the motorway when it came completely off.

    I would have liked to think that this was just a freak accident and a coincidence but at the time I had my suspicions. Now after tonight I know someone out there is a chicken shit with no morals or balls enough to confront me with whatever there issue is! If you read this post, know that when I find out who you are...and I will find out, I will fuck your shit up...promise!

    For all you out there who read this and are as concerned about this as I am, I would ask you to be vigilant in the pits and if any of you have any information you would like to share with me about this incident, please come forward and tell me knowing you will remain completely anonymous.

    I am going to the police tomorrow to report this to them so when we find this prick there is some paper trail to go back on. See you in court fucker!

    Sure your not over tightening the nuts? Ive seen that before on trailers. Stretch the studs through over tightening and they loosen up and snap.

    Just a thought. That was on a brand new trailer to.

    Nope...this trailer was not brand new and the nuts were removed off ALL four wheels exactly the same. Also on the other trailer Both sides were loose. Its no a coincidence...its wankers. I've had my suspension fucked with at the track too...all preload and compression wound all the way out!??! That shit don't happen by itself. Someone has an issue with me and can't come to my face and tell me about it.

    These people are not too smart obviously so spread the word...they would have told someone something...we need to find them and stop them.

    The Police will take a very dim view of this as it is tantamount to murder. They deliberately sabotaged your trailer, knowing the potential consequences. If your trailer had caused an accident where someone was seriously hurt or killed, you would be held responsible as it is your duty to ensure your trailer is safe. So everyone, always check your trailers before you take off!

    Same with stuffing up your suspension settings, as unnoticed it could have serious consequences at racing speeds!

    These people, if you can call them people, need to be caught and made an example of!

    Are you sure you have the correct wheels on your trailer? I had a trailer years ago the the wheels kept loosening and snapping the studs, turns out even thought the stud spacing on the wheels was correct, the centre hole was too big and wasnt sitting on the hub properly so all the weight was on the studs, and they dont like that.

    Ok, just a suggestion. M/cycle racing must be tough then. When i was racing cars out at Pukekohe i dropped a valve, my main rival offered the head off his tow car for the day. Guess its not like that for you guys.

    I don't believe its a racer or my competition...just someone who is regularly at race meetings...like a racers support crew or club members who have it in for me for some reason...who knows!?
