I might head along to the start of this, on the Lambretta. Hopefully you'll turn a blind eye to the 'under 250cc' rule.

You need a long stroke crank, an upgear, short 4th gear, cylinder kit, etc etc. The guys at Retro know what cylinder kit will work best for you. They order from SIP every week or so. Yeah, drag day was good. my best was a 18.8 at 66mph. not bad considering my clutch was slipping. And the scoot had sat in the shed for a year. I didnt even put fresh gas in. lewl.

So, this thing was a hoot to ride, but always lacked power and handled like a wobbly spring. Only one thing to do. Add more power. 40.5hp to be exact.

I'm going to go to BurgerFuel Ellerslie tonight. Well, actually I'll probably be next door at Mexicali.

Rats, its the first time in ages that I'll be able to make it. Was going to bring the Lambretta out for a hoon.

Louis, if you need a 2stroke dyno, I use Lincoln at R&R Powersports. I'm sure he would like to strap this to the dyno and get it running just right for you. Not cheap, but he knows his stuff.

This thing looks so rad. Those pipes are going to sound amazing.

'Twas a good little ride.

My GF also has lush carpet so I thought I would do some housework. and hook some O's

Déjà Vu Another OS Dragday done for the year. Such an awesome day. Thanks to everyone involved. I picked up 'Best Burnout' again!! I think doing a such a massive burnout that sets the mudflaps on fire sealed the deal. After the rather large burnout the temp came up and the run down the strip was slow, as the ecu wouldnt let me rev past about 5k rpm. I didn't think much of the situation and traveled down the return road and slowed to pick my appalling time slip from Evan. Then two of the track officials came running over with fire extinguishers. My mud flaps had caught fire! After putting them out the track staff high five'd me and sent me back to the pits to scrape the remaining spent rubber off from the inner guard. Great shot from Andrew Snow tyres for the win.

I may make it to this.

Its Monday. Did the concrete get poured? HAS ANYONE DRAWN DICKS IN THE CONCRETE YET?

That does look like the unit in my Sigma/Galant/Eterna GSR. Ive got a spare that doesnt dribble in my parts stash. I plan on using it to swap with my dribbly one.

If its any consolation my power steering box dribbles a bit as well.

Nah, would be more of a pain to put a battery in. The paperwork is also for the lack of indicators and in some cases lack of brake light!

So this thing was de-reg. I was riding this dirty, no reg/wof. and speed through fixed speed camera. At a whopping 54kph or something. The old owner got the ticket. Followed by a ticket for no WOF. Lol. Me being a good chap, I paid the speeding ticket. And started the process of getting it legal to try and get off the 'no wof' fine (of which was in the previous owners name). The kids at Retroscooter helped out with recompliance, writing to the Vintage Car Club to get Lighting Exemption forms sorted. Brake deceleration, wiring, adding front shocks, etc. Anyway. I've being riding it quite a bit. It's slow as a wet week. But it rules. More power at some point. Pic of it it with the headlight on at idle. (Hence lighting exemption)

I am searching for a Torx T7, Pan head, Thread forming screw. 3mm wide, 6mm long. I would like to buy some locally before I have to get some from China. Some of you nerds must know who stocks this kind of fasteners.......... Pic for attention. Showing my accurate measuring equipment.

I'll be keen to look in sheds, eat sausages. Sadly my shed isn't much to look at yet.

Yep, thanks for organizing this Neal. The kids and the dog thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Bonus that the dog didn't throw up in the back of the car (he drank a bit of salt water while swimming (retard)).

Is it ok if I bring my kids

So this thing when to 2016 Oldschool Drag Day. Such a sweet event put on by a bunch of good dudes, passionate about crusty old cars. And supported by us! As mentioned before, I use to have real issues getting the car into 3rd gear on the strip. Redline MT90 has sorted that issue. Last year the best that the car could do was 16.4 at 85.7mph. Due to slow shifting into 3rd gear. This year was much better........15.2 at 90mph Stoked to get the 'Best Skid' award. Stolen pics from others with fancy cameras. Thanks for the memories. xoxo
