Ha the Foodtown carpark was a hoot. The plywood covers over the drains were ok. Until it rained. Won my first race there on the MB50. But crashed 5 times on another meeting there including a hay bale blowing in front of me then later the rod making an appearance. Darrin hit me both times. By accident I'm sure. . .

the rules out of the uk are

Engine:
Two stroke and four stroke engines with a capacity of no more than 50cc.

Transmission:
A minimum of 3 gears and a maximum of 6 gears.

Wheels:
Wheel diameter must be between 16" and 18"

They have now allowed CVT but they have to be chain driven.
Basically the only rule is 50cc and go for it

Will do. The rules we have a close. I found a nice Ali cylinder that does not say racing on it. Looks very racy though.

Stage 6

Sure. I have already ported the cast cylinder. I know where and when to poor energy into a build. I will still be putting tons of hours into the new cylinder and the engine build. It will all be my design and my work. I will build the pipe / pipes myself. Buying a cylinder that looks good will only get you so far. I plan on going beyond what everyone else has done. Cheater way I don't think so!

Yes, May all the idiots have a jolly one, May HRC's development budget grow next year and all the actual bucket races do what they do best, tinker and race!

Merry Christmas to you all.

Let's hope the GPR development budget grows and the team has great success in 2016.
