Sidecar Racing

[Kickaha]

So any bets on what sidecars they're talking about coming over? I know Tim Reeves has indicated his interest before and Adolf Hanni has also said he'd discuss it with Klaffi which would possibly mean the Birchalls, be interesting to see some of their top F2 guys run against our fastest F1

They'll probably only get that chance when he's lapping them

Hmmm... not at this stage....
If trade stays the same as it is now, I'll just have to stay at home and watch racing on CTAS....

last time biggs and nuttal came they won the TT at puke on a 600, and that was his spare bike. that could've been an ongoing thing but main sponsor didn't even get a picture of the teams at the end of the season so spent their coin elsewhere.

Yes. Bringing in an overseas rider can be a bit of a thankless task. Im cured & Id rather invest in local talent now.

... PISS POOR preparation...

Kind of like that Muppet that didn't torque his triple clamp up properly and tried to carry on racing with one fork leg pushed through?

I wonder what happened to him?

His crew noticed it at the refueling stop and told him to retire, but he knew better.

Nearly did more than retire. Instead it just further retarded.

Carl Cox Motorsport report

Day 2 of the Croatian FIM Superside meeting found all teams making choices to try and deal with the incredibly abrasive surface we encountered over the last few days- the standard softer compound tyres simply wouldn't last for even yesterdays 10 lap race, so we decided to opt for a safe option on another set of brand new front/chair soft compound, and a harder, slightly used rear that was kindly offered to us by our pit neighbours John Holden and Barnes Racing for the today's tough 18 lap feature race.

A few suspension changes that we thought may help with the tougher surface unfortunately didn't work as well as planned at race pace and unfortunately our lap times were a bit slower in today's hot conditions.

The boys finished 9th overall, with most of the teams suffering loss of tyre quality before the end of the race- the front runners were posting very quick times regardless of tyre choice but there were some spectacular slides seen!

We're proud of a great result with two finishes, 15 World Championship points and some amazing memories with great people- we'll be seeing the other teams next weekend for the Hungarian Round to be held at Pannonia-ring, a new circuit on the FIM calendar which will be a new experience for many of the teams competing , can't wait to see it!

In the meantime, the team is taking a couple of days to recoup from the weekend, clean a lot of excess rubber from the bike, and get a wee bit of sightseeing before heading north to Hungary in time for as many practice laps as we can get

Thanks to all the kind wishes we've been receiving while on the road in Europe, we'll try to reply to everyone as soon as possible- Internet access has been up and down around the Croatian track over the last few days.

Bring on next weekend!!

Regards,

Carl, Colin, Robbie and Gav
