    We used to run drag races for giggles at carpark events, but Tokoroa is hardly the place with that first corner.

    Anyway mine needs a rebore at a min to get it back to full health.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    You wouldn't run the full length of it, half with the rest as braking area is enough. Google earth approximation is the straight being 115m long. Plenty!

    You boys are clearly forgetting that the air strip right next door to the track is the back is Tokoroa Drag strip

    For the record Qkkid was in my bed, not the other way round

    The drag strip idea is a good one if we could get permission to use it .

    (que infantile jokes about stripping out of wimimns clothing)

    Well the bike started out promising but seemed to get slower. During the race, once I could almost convince myself to push on it became less sharp and couldn't gain on other bikes it could before.
    I'm suspicious of the cooling and the gauge has decided to pack it in.

    Then it went fut.

    The clutch basket cush decided to unbutton itself and do bad things. Can someone import some legal 10yr old (2 stroke ones of course) bikes instead of these 30 yr old ones?
