this is the nsa website (national sprint association) look at the 50th anniversary at Santa pod and look at the photographs. its sprinting but some good bikes there.http://www.sprinting.org.uk/


this is the straightliners that's drag racing, you will be able to access photos from there.http://ccgi.straightliners.force9.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=668

the link has photos. people can drag race anything, I'm sure you'll know its just about sorting them into the right classes.
you should ask Sam he knows all about it.

Man that's sweet RR. Just for me, can ya pull the wheelie bars off and spank a few at the stop lights?

I understand it may jeopardize your license, driving record, and bank account. But I could live vicariously through you if just for a little while.

Comeonnow... isn't it worth it?! ;D



Hope to see your next project soon.

G'day Sam, i had to machine the rear sprocket carrier as much as i could which isn't quite enough but cycle x have offset front sprockets and that should get it right. Its out roughly 10mm at the front.

You guys might like this one.
This is the only pic of my laydown dragbike chassis in it's early stages, that's a carbon fiber 10" wheel with bead locks. It later had a full one piece body and turbo SOHC. I kick myself now for not having shot rolls of film of some of the stuff I played around with!!!
I sold the roller, less motor, when I got an offer I couldn't refuse $$$  ;D

Cool stuff Nitro! I hope more drag stuff comes to the surface... for a guy with a car only upbringing this blows the mind a bit.

For you newer guys that might not have seen my mini drag bike in action.
It wouldn't run clean off the line on it's first run but soon overhauled the other guy on the same bike when it cleared it's throat.
It was cleaner on the second run and turned 13.4 102mph, all from just 134ccs :D :D :D :D
