Sidecars?

[Moooools]

Any of you 10" wheeled sidecars going to be down at the track this weekend?

I have a set of Hoosier LC0s that I want to get rid of. Have 4 but one has some sidewall damage so you can have that for free. Ha.
They even have some tread left.

Yes please, but wont be at the track. You could deposit them in Henks van for me to pick up at a later date though.

Henk - that way we can trade, your engine for my tyres.

Works for me, of course when the time comes for you to collect we may have worn them out on the hub Center rig

Should be another set coming in a month or so.

But you really want to be designing with the Hoosier RB25 10x7.5 in mind. Good carcass for high load and still a nice sticky compound. Best run on an 8" wide rim. Something off of an ATV works nicely.

Good to hear you are still with us Carl, if I can help in any way to get you back on the track let me know. Rick/Henk, might pay to talk to Darren or Mike Green, pretty sure they tried slicks on your new hub rig and decided to go back to an old mini tire... I'm guessing you won't have that green machine at the track this weekend? Sounds like it's going to be a wet weekend, don't suppose you could throw your groover in the back of the van Henk?

Highly unlikely the new rig will be done for Sunday, we have two engine mounts in but lots still to do and some still to work out how to do.

I'd love to throw the groover in for you, unfortunately it's currently in Wellington

[Gazzza]

No worries, if it rains it rains, just hope we can stay on the track for more than a couple of laps.

To be honest I still think our kart tired rigs will totally bury that old hub rig (Henk and Ricks, not Cullys) sure it was good in its day but that was soooooo long ago I doubt anyone can even remember when it was last on the track, still if we run a handicap season we can always give you two a half lap head start...

[Henk]

Talk it up Brenton

See you Sunday.

[Gazzza]

Arhhhhh well let's see... Lap record last meet, hmmmmmm that would be number 35, actually according to mylaps the fastest lap in both races and prelim was errrrrrr number 35...

Talk is cheap, let the numbers do the talking

"Talk is cheap, let the numbers do the talking", ok so that makes no sense but you know what I mean.

[mr bucketracer]

we will bet you where you lot stand....lol how meany times have we said that and break down

[Gazzza]

Breaking down and running sidecars go hand in hand, mind you apart from a thrown chain we have been pretty lucky for quite some time. I did do a bit of welding this week to stiffen up the front end, that seems to be a weak spot on the go kart framed rigs, but the Loncin's are hanging in there.

[mr bucketracer]

can't beleave after racing on big tracks year ago that we have had so meany problems on way less laps and smaller tracks
