10Speed Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 - mopeds vs pit bikes on an abandoned velodrome in DetroitWhere/when do you guys race? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grunta Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 its all about Agricultural motors and less about using motorbike motors on a bike! We pretty much race fortnightly at the haitatai velodrome here in sunny non windy wellington!!! great times http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/video/video.php?v=134728989926928 Yes that is a couch!

10Speed Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 there's an old 'drome on Portage Rd in New Lynn (I think) that's probably a better bet. Just not sure how strong the engineering skills/desires are amongst us Ak'ers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unclejake Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Hmmm. UJ could be tempted to build something stupid like this over winter. What are the rules? Presumably motorcycle engines are forbidden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgySam Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Im dead keen to build one for interprovs. Just dont have the room for one as all the rest of my bike based projects take up alot of space.
