    Spot the issue

    Emagine this... Greymouth street race, full noise down the front straight at 160kph, hook 6th and haul on up towards 200k... one pot quits, lose of power, BANG the the roudy thing under my arse stops producing noise the wee stick things with upside down egg cups locks solid... I head towards a dear net fence which is retaining people with a grin on there faces thinking they about to see a cool crash, Im thinking Id move if I was you lot cos this aint gona be prety...



    ... But no in fact I was exiting the slowest section of the track taps wide open, we drop a pod I think maybe, just maybe it will clear and keep it open for a sec but knowing this engine is a very sweet runner it wont be no fouled pulg... instent lock up, clutch in arm up pull over and lean on the dear neting thinking, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh fuk it.

    So anyone spot the issues in the pics?

    Was that the result of the crank spreading?

    Ummm did you forget to fill in the race entry form ?

    Well done stayin upright !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Was it an electrical problem caused by the camshaft going through the distributor?

    Too many layers of polish on the showpony caused a localised black hole that made the engine implode simple really, yes the drugs are very good today.

    havent got to the nitty gritty yet, but its looking like it... how ever there are signs of the right hand pot running very lean (if crank spread should be left pot)
