    Thought it might interest some here....

    Went out for a play at 'Udrive' with a workmate on sat arvo, he's taken a super kart (ie racing kart) and stuffed a 2001 R1 engine on the back of it. this things foooken crazy fun and a little scary to drive. Certainly sorts the men from the boys


    he's still got a few things here and there to sort out to make it a bit more user friendly ie improve throttle mechanism but he'll get there, gotta expect a few teething problems

    i managed to break the throttle cable (easy fix on the spot) but no so easy to fix was the rear tire that gave up on me mid drift with a huge bang

    we were doing roughly 12 sec laps and the record fastest time is 10.8 or something, not bad for first time out there!

    He'll ride anything. Hell...I've seen him on a Honda.
    But I know he prefers Suzukis. Good boy, that he is.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Might take the 600. Dont know if can be bothered getting the 450 converted back in time, but can always drag out one of the buckets for a laugh!

    Yep, looks like a goer for me too. Will go thru to Napier rather than Hastings.

    But can you assure me George that I'll make it around the lake under your guidance?

    So you don't think you should be TEC?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
