That's a good plan. I'm sure the burnout can last 1/4 mile!
Edit: Those bikes must have a rider with Collins written on the leathers to make mission accomplished with the fantastic history of the legend revived, right?
I believe so, seriously. I look forward to see and hear.

PeWe, both Russ and David have Collins in big letters on their leathers, so no problem there mate.

The last I heard from Russ is that the AT&SF Running or not will be at the MAN Cup World Finals at SGMP in South Georgia as will the Sorcerer but news on that one is not 100%.

Sam.

I know where Sam lives. Maybe I could fly over, stuff him in a carry on and bring him back?

Hey, whatever it takes!

Saw a post on FB that it's confirmed the AT&SF will be at the Man Cup in the Ape tent.

PeWe · « **Reply #3108 on:** October 30, 2019, 10:00:58 pm »

For show only or can it be started?

A comment from Jay said it won't be started.

See it will be fantastic!
The resurrection of a real beast!

Like breeding a T- Rex and let it free

Here's the latest from Russ guys.

Jerry Cooper sent this just now...Triple driveline sorted, timed and assembled....looks like a runner eh?
Guy is a mechanical phenom ...this was no easy task!

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #3113 on:** November 07, 2019, 03:44:24 am »

I'm not sure if this means it will be a runner at Valdosta but I have asked Russ, just waiting on a reply.

Jim F · « **Reply #3114 on:** November 07, 2019, 12:00:43 pm »

Mike let me know if you go over and ill help with packing Sam up

call me
Jim

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #3115 on:** November 08, 2019, 03:27:36 am »

The bike won't be fired up at Valdosta, just a static display of the almost finished bike.

Russ tells me that it's the final plumbing that is stopping it from being fired up.

Yes.....oil lines and some other lines.

I'm glad they decided not to fire it up at this race. There are probably countless other items that need to be completed and rushing for the sake of a show simply isn't practical. With all the nuisances of this nostalgic bike, any little problem could turn into disaster. I'm looking forward to hearing that it's fully completed and test starts a few times before the public debut.

I think everyone will still be thrilled to see this bike on display in person. I've never layed eyes on it so this will be a true treat for me.

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #3118 on:** November 08, 2019, 08:20:43 am »

I totally agree guys, if you go back to the first post in this thread, yesterday is 8 years to the day since Russ came to us telling us about his plans to resurrect his dad's bikes, another few months won't make a lot of difference to make sure the AT&SF starts up perfectly.

Sam.

Jerry Rxman Griffin aka MuthaF'er · « **Reply #3119 on:** November 08, 2019, 09:27:22 am »

I agree but now I will have to book another return from paradise round trip in April. Gotta be back on tha rock for carnival this coming year and it will be the following week or so!

Plus that will give us enough time to get Sam a round trip also

and for me that will be a great reason to be there

For that matter Sam can come to the British Virgin Islands and can return with me.

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #3120 on:** November 22, 2019, 01:03:27 pm »

At last, it's on display in Valdosta guys.

Jerry Rxman Griffin aka MuthaF'er · « **Reply #3123 on:** November 22, 2019, 04:26:24 pm »

It looks great. Getting a lot of attention. It still needs the oil plumbing etc hooked up.
