    No, they're not, at least not road racing sidecars anyway

    Funny story about that.

    Gordie's entire plan was to fix that one up, sell it, and buy the Windle.

    Sooooo....

    haha, you're the only one that likes train rides round here.

    hows that LCR fairing going? 1 week til Race day.

    hoping Phil is doin somethin to the chair as I can't get back up to Chch before the race.

    anyone find the patches/resealed bits a bit rough at 'Puna? the bump on the left before the sweeper was so violent Ella said she was getting airborne each lap and it ended up snapping 2 of our fairing mounts. and other sections you could just feel it as u hot the resealed bit what a difference in heigh it was. Guess I'll try go around those bits next time.

    Anyone notice slower lap times than normal? mylaps doesnt seem to have our info anymore.

    And then some bro!

    We've got a test day next week, to try out our latest mods and a right hand track. We've not ridden a right hand track, so I'm glad we made the front end more complaint.
