Can fill you in on requirements.

The Scooter Race Series later this year should be ripper with the number of enquiries so far.  It's planned to have a 50cc category & another of 50cc - 250cc .

Hi ROB I have a list of scoots that will be on the track in time for the new sason, BUG SUPER 9 unchanged 50cc since the 6hour , SYM RED DEVIL 50cc just a pipe , SYM JOLLY STANDARD AT THE MOMENT , TYPHOON MAYBE 50CC DONT NOW YET, VESPA PX 200 PIPE CARBY MALOSSI BARREL QUICK ON STRAIGHT SLOW IN CORNERS,  BUG VIBE STANDARD STILL QUICK .Looking foward to the season everybody happy with the time frame so we expect a few more people once we find them scooters to race, two have asked for race scooters to be built just have to locate suitable donor machines, interest growing and it looks very positive, will update as we find out more.

I'd like to have 2 scoots avail as well. But regardless, will be running the Agility in either stock 125 or mega 163cc guise. If I get hold of another scooter, someone can race that to put an extra bum on seat and scoot on grid for the whole 5 rounds.  Will probably keep it 50cc for that class similar to the Red Devil

Is it time to get excited yet?????

Italjet Torpedo                         (51cc -250cc class)

Ahh that's a Italjet DRAGSTER (180cc)

AND if i get my finger out and resurect Franken-scoot in it's new guise - ApriliaSR/honda lead hybrid SR100 (four stroke)

Thought that would invite comment from you, Mr Hoon!!!  I always get those two models back to front!!!

I'm looking to do a little frankenscooting myself oneday especially in regards to the front fork setup. But I'd like to cut the front down a little to lower the front handlebars a little further than standard and also alter the seat position and move the tank blah blah blah basically I might just buy a FZR-R250 rolling chassis and bolt a scooter engine/tranny into it.... LOL!!!!! or something like that

While I'm thinking about.....Paul, Have you got any good photo graphs of Frankenscoot's front end that I could get some inspiration from.....?

Who's heading out to the Saturday June 21st Track Night?

Do you mean the scoot with the upside down Thumpstar front-end ? That's Mick's Honda Dio, I can put you in touch with him.

R1hoon i think its time that frankenscoot was finished for the track there cant be to much left to do, this should be Kstars new race scoot till he gets his own low level missile.

Good Idea Jas,

Hey Craig - wanna finish off a weapon of mass scooter destruction ???? PM or email me

returned your PM and will call you soon!!!

Woah!! Frankenscoot!!! What did they do to you?  I could just imagine Mr Hoon standing over you with the lightening flashing in the background cackling..."It's alive!!!....It's Alive!!!....IT"S ALIVE!!!"   or least it soon will be. Let's get it on.

I'll start clearing a space on the operating table, organise it's pre-med and book an alcove in my garage for a speedy recovery.  I've lined up an anaethetist, a scrub nurse and a proctologist to help me out.  Dunno exactly what the proctologist would be good for but always handy to have around.

Will talk to you soon, P!
