    Well be interesting to see how it goes on 100:1.... the chineese engine torrlances are wack to say the least and then theres the high rpm these engines pull and the not so flash meatels they make there main bearings with.... but yea as you say engines are cheap. I wouldn't try it in my bike 35:1 is what it gets alittle more oil dosn't hert specialy at 17000rpm and the fact a piston barrel kit for my engine is worth $550

    It's a great track there are a few bumps but the track is getting a resurface sometime... There was a few going at one point but Jun open is the same riders as the Tam meets but by the sounds there may be two more joining the class ...

    We went down to the track yesterday, but it was the karts practice day. Next saturday is pocketbike practice or something so we will go introduce ourselves then.

    So, in the pissing rain we put the bikes in the hilux and go down the beach - theres a nice bit of tarseal there and there should be no one around.. and wait and wait for a gap in the torrential rain! grumble..

    Warmup time - choke and FIRST PULL and it bursts into life and idles smoothly. Ah yeah, we're using Amsoil, hehe, lub it.

    Rain backs off and off the teenagers go - massive grins all around, and chickenstrips take a beating, and the demented little chainsaws cut the place up.

    Problem! The bikes dont like the cold and the water on the ground - engine runs dead stone cold and never warms up - won't idle properly you see..

    Everyone very much looking forward to next saturday, Dad included!

    Nah man, every time we been down there there was the karts or no one there. Seems August 4,5 is the "start of the new season" so maybe we'll see regular days. We have found some roads to use though - we get some funny looks and people sitting around watching Won't be long before the feds turn up though..
