Re: So just who does want to go 100mph?

Stuart is absolutely correct. Its the old old story, the faster you go, the faster you want to go. Sad but true, after a few 118mph runs on Darrell's group 6 getting yet another 118mph ticket was really disappointing.

The young lad doing 50mph on his mono-wheel. The worlds fastest lawnmower. It was good to see the scoots getting a lot of i...

Re: Super Monza Hits 105.6 mph

Was it 1/4 mile standing start or over a flying mile? It was a standing mile. Which feels a looooong way when your wide open on the throttle. Don't read too much into the tail wind, it didn't offer much assistance, it's the head winds that can be a killer. I Don't want to crash the Super Monza thre...

Re: Available Close Ratio 4 speed Gearboxes......

Chiselspeed will make you one up, have a word with Martin.
I've been sprinting with one for over two years never had an issue with gearboxes, broken teeth or sliding dogs.
