My speed run project continues.
This morning 2 runs at 125 klm/hr at the netball courts at Tempe.
Used 3.18:1 gearing, Rollout 53mm, 4.5T motor, 70% boost. Motor/speedy staying under 45 degrees C so higher speeds should be possible.
I had 1 airborne event, suspect that was a small stone I failed to clean off the courts.

Tuesday thus far I can confirm the following drivers for VTA after the usual Saturday arvo meeting session..
Noel - Backdoor
Rube - Capt Jack
Big Pete - The Senator
Hopefully Peter - Punchy
Matthew - Matt da Rat
Ross we know you have a VTA so come out and play .. we see you!!!
I believe Wayward Wayne and Fu Man Chu will also be there as we also hope Denis the Menace and Chris Mc Goop and lets not forget Steady Eddy will also make a show.. If Varvs comes in too AKA Twiz.. that should make 11 VTA's ... With a bit of Luck Andrew "Milky Barr Kid" Barr may make a show we still live in hope as for No Show Al .. he's waiting for the Sundays... I hear a rumor that Paul Smith is thinking of Advancing to VTA too however this is speculation at the moment
