WOW
This bike is asking to take it for one of practice sessions of DTRA.
Love it, def need some track time, I reckon all you need to do to have it on track it to disconnect front brake!
And a kill switch.
I bet it goes like a stink! hehe
You know that new dirt quake is happening? you can surely race this year in street bike class.

Nice Job Carl
FWIW i like the idea of the exhausts that exit under the rear mudguard above the tyre

Finally managed to get the bike to a DTRA event this weekend, due to being at a bigger motorcycle event there was limited track time and no time to play with settings.
A couple of six lap races, got faster and more confident every lap and didn't crash!
In my head i felt like Mert Lawwill going round but probably looked more like Mr Magoo!

Excellent!
Shame I couldn't be there this weekend
There is a practice session next weekend near Bristol and another one in Buxton soon after.
Hope to see you next time!

Are the practice sessions advertised on the DTRA website Bomber?
The Bristol one could work out well.
Hopefully catch up at a round soon.

After missing most of the Dirt Track season due to date clashes i managed to get to the final round on sunday. Five races through the day and i'm definitely getting faster and have a few ideas to improve the bike over the winter.
For me i need to get to one of the Dirt Track riding schools to learn how to ride on an oval.
Met with fellow Berg rider and forum member Bomber too and actually got a bit of attention with two Bergs lining up for the races.
The picture below demonstrates how far i've got to go technique and speed wise with the current National Champion lapping me in the first afternoon race! He didn't get me again though. |
