Dry Lakes Racers Australia

Hi guys thought I would share the start up of the bike for the first time since we have made all the changes. All went well, believe it or not it kick started on the 3rd kick, not bad for blown fuel single. Still a bunch of work to do as Feb is fast approaching. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=...

Sorry to hear you are running tight on time. We know exactly what you are up against. We should be starting our bike in the next couple of weeks. Then getting it on the dyno ASAP. That will be the big test, so many unknowns. Hopefully the crank stays in the bike.

Stay well

Hi guys, we are heading South to Lake Gairdner next year for the first time and are looking for any "must sees" along the way. Where we should stay, is there places where everyone meets for a cold one etc. We are going to take a few days and enjoy the trip so any tips would be most appreci...

Looking good mate. Not sure about those turbo or blown two strokes, how do you keep the crankcase seals in them .

Anyways blown fuel 100 is coming along nicely as is your build. 100mph here we come!

It does look like Gav has got a firm grip. He just ran 6.97sec in Sydney last weekend. Put the fire out at 1000ft. Was 5:6sec at a 1000 ft so was on a 6.6sec pass until it started mixing up cylinders.

Thanks Pete. Will have a look. I guess the racing rating covers us? FYI Darrold in US uses the Goodyear Frontrunner of an alcohol dragster. 2.5 x 17. Fits on a 2.15 x 17 rim. Originally was hoping for something as small as 70 x 70 x 17.

To all, build still progressing every week. My dad has been putting a few extra hours in getting all the manifolds finished for the bike. Here is a good shot looking at the blower with the new carby manifold in place. You can also just see the outlet manifold on the back of the blower. https://graph...

You can never count the Spiderman out even if the Swedes have run a couple of quick ones. The sister bike (Mathersons) use to be called the HULK bike before Chris got it. Should be good to see how they go there are a few in the running. They are all a little Fickle at sub six seconds. Hang ON

Not quite finished Ross, just want to make sure our decisions are correct. See you soon

Any word on a tech inspection date for next year. Don't want to miss it.

Well its been a busy few weeks. We are pretty much trying to stick to a timeline & if we have time at the end go back and beautify a few things. We finished the blower pulleys, but found we had some runout on the crank. https://graph.facebook.com/516218541796735/picture So we machined and added ...

Good to see the pulleys coming along. We have finished our and will boost test the blower in two weeeks, driving it of the motor but not pumping into motor.

How is the build going?

Ok here are some pics and details from our build over the past few months. We really wanted to get hold of an old CB 100 but due to the expense and lack of, we decided to go with a CRF100F - a four stroke 100cc single. My dad has had some fast two strokes over the years but we thought a blown single...
