    Mini Dragbikes

    A couple of blokes from my site used to race these.

    50+hp worth of methanol burning formula500 engine into a Deltek rock hopper.



    Honda Z50 with a YZ80 engine before Willowbank banned him from racing it.

    Bring on Junior bike I reckon. Can you imagine a skilled 12 year old weighing in at 40kg's soaking wet getting down the strip on something like that.

    2 second 60 foot on that cructh rocket is fuckin awesome,hey shane did someone get busted up on those bikes for them to ban them? i think done properly there is no reason why they cant be as popular as the mini dragsters, they have got a decent following...

    Hi Guys-- I am Des's brother(blue ZX12R)& GS1100 Sidecar & Mini Motards (150's)
    If the weather holds I will be taking my quicker 150 to the Test & Tune today.
    I want to get an accurate speed from my 150 "Race" engine.
    I will let you know if i have trouble with getting the Motard on the Track.

    Just got in from Willowbank-- Good News-- They have no problem with Mini Motards running.
    My DHZ Mini Motard 150GPX only had 2 runs because of huge fields,oil downs & GSXR750 looping on the startline.
    First run spoiled when wheelstand jarred the choke on--
    Second run 18.05 at 70.6 mph.
    Running lean on the needle- should have no problem making 17.5s next time
    If you have a Motard bring it out to Willowbank-- The riders and crowd were very supportive.
    70mph gearing is 17/37 with 120/70 road tyres.
