OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Or uh oh there goes my peeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! Lol.

Have fun and work on that hand clutch.
Thanks Frank, my 1327cc got a bit boring after three seasons and I decided it's time for this sport to get slightly dangerous  ;D
Also have a new head with bigger valves etc. coming.
With the number of runs I get in a season here... I'll get used to the new engine in about three decades  ::)

Purple Rain was what I came up with first......sides Prince plays a mean guitar himself! ;) ;D Bill

Wasn't it called Purple Haze by the other guy? That's why I asked.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Went to my local Applebys Mon night. No such thing as 2 fers here!  :'(  Oh well, sweet tea works. I don't need to do any drinking any time soon. I'm all caught up!  ;)

I'll have to come visit sister more often and see what we can put together with all those spare parts  :) Hoping to see Jim's turbo working too.

    Not often members of this forum get to meet in person from as many diverse locations.

    Can anyone list all the states represented this weekend by the group in attendance??  Sam is a worldwide kinda guy so i guess he can claim the whole earth as his home location-lol.

    I'll start it off:

    1) Dragracer( Frank)  - South Carolina
    2) Bill BentON Racing (Bill Benton) Georgia
    3) madmtnmotors (Wilbur) - Florida
    4) Sam Green Racing (Sam) Cheshire England
    5) Jerry ( I drink Like a girl ) Rxman Griffin - Colorado
    6) Jon Weeks - Maine
    7) Mike Rieck - Massachusetts
        Jack Alexyon - North Carolina
    9) Jim French - Georgia

Wow, we truly were a diverse group as far as originating locations. Hopefully Sam will rethink his statement about making this his last trip across the pond.

Amazing how one man brought together so many people in one place to show overwhelming support of his dream. Not only did Sam realize that dream once, he did it 3 times and has the win slips to provie it to the world.

Cudos to you Sam Green!!!!!!!!!!

I still owe Sam £200.00 for getting me a set of pistons... actually for my brother but that's a long story.
I'll make sure Sam gets that money back and I hope he uses it to go back to States and hopefully I'll be there to race with him  ;)
