Working like mad on the flying frog only missing an engine, bit of plastic and some rubber, but will be there on the 4th.
For those interested in a meal afterwards my local Elephant & Castle PUB is 3 miles from mallory has 5 real ales and also does Pub type food of faggots or home made pies etc etc (veggies and passengers catered for) at around 6.50 a good platefull. I have reserved a table for ten of us at the present.

Not had my Auto 66 Cadwell entry book come as yet, but plan to be there with the sledge and the outfit, thermals and shorts. Don't forget to prebook with Mallory 01455 842931.

Wayne are you ready!!!!

nice one tibs. me doug and big tim and poss dougs lad will be there. Do they do rooms for the night? knowing hoe you fiorce beer in to us non drinkers I doubt we'll be driving back :lol:

I think you should bring your knee pads to cadwell, you know how slippy it can be when drunk.......er frosty.

wayne, to win a race we need to be fast, don't matter wot oil we have it won't make a difference :D :lol: anyway bud, you forget we had 3 wins last year including beating the tractors on their omtimax :D :lol:

Timothy, how dare you suggest I put the plates in the wrong way round! Doug did it. :lol: he didn't really but how was I meant to know. anyway most of em were rd400 so didn't have chamfer. :?

anyway no didn't get it put together cos I forgot to pick the rivets up from my office ont he way to the workshop.......about 5 miles away. doh. Part built it and sussed the new centre is made for non bearing type clutches. the bearing makes the basket about 3-4mm thicker so the boss in the back of the centre is too long. I machined it down and its spot on.

as for 747 in genny, using up all the old avgas that is full of that crap out of the tank..... runs well on it :lol: I guess we could filter it but would rather use fresh in the bike.
