Folden

I see I has the right motor in it too. I suppose they had to think about that name a bit too. They could have called it a Foden but then that would have turned it into a truck wouldn't it. Some period wheels on it and it would look good . Twelve slotters or even those five slot Kelseys would look be...

There is also a condition called a Reverse Hallucination, which is when you cannot see something but it actually is there. Men suffer this more than women as evidenced by the amount of times we go to a cupboard an say, "Honey, where's the {insert missing object here}?" Only to have her op...

Tech Inspection

Thanks to Cookey, Pete and also Des Jewis for making the tech inspection happen today. It was good to have someone else's eyes have a look at what I have been doing over the last few years on my midget. Thanks to all for the sausage sizzle lunch. Hit the spot nicely except that I had to wash it down...

King Kenny

Always loved US style flattrack racing . Some of the hairiest racing you will see anywhere. Could say its real drifting! Not this stuff they promote these days which is motorsports response to synchronized swimming. Style points :?: :?: :shock: :shock: . What happened to the idea of first over the line wins :?:

Steel tyre valves

Our local Bridgestone dealer stocks them. Ask around should be easy to find.

Looks like "Seth Efrica" is to be the site of this LSR attempt. Shame they aren't coming to SA and Lake Gairdner. :(

Slaughter Streamliner

Well here goes. Given we are talking about a BFS streamliner the record for which is a sizeable chunk of Mach I and the name Slaughter conjures up images of knives, my nomination is "MACH THE KNIFE". Great old song done so well by Bobby Darin. The lyrics seem to fit too. m My 2 bobs worth.
