Been running one at Mt Welly on practice days and have just picked up Speedpros old one from Wellington so we'll need some competition for that. Couple of others complete and able to run up here in Auckland

cool .l remember Speedpros old one ( centre hub steering ) had some good racing at the gp in 1999-2000 still have the 1999 race on video

Just where to run it is the question. We run two bucket classes on Kart days (which is overwhelming majority) so don't expect to run sidecars at Wellington. Maybe if you are prepared to do Pacific days they might. . .

Hi crazy man, be keen on a copy of the video if that's possible. Just need to give the sidecar a good tidy up and away we go.

That reminds me of something that happened when i picked up sidecar on friday, since the kart track was just up the road we decided to go and have a look at it. Were meet at the gate by a chap in a red BMW who's first comment was ''your not running that on our track'' such a friendly person, it was pointed out to him that we had only stopped to see what the track looked like as i raced karts but had never been down here before. He probably wouldn't want my gearbox kart on his track either, to many sharp pieces on it to damage his track if i flipped it.

Hi crazy man. I swung for speedpro for those years. The gearing was short at the GP,so we pulled massive revs for the hole straight but the MB motor hung together. Very nice chair. So easy to swing on. Could I get a copy of the video or could you post it on here.

Next meeting though the big end seized. It actually blued the crank wheels next to the pin.
