chappie/landie racing

Postby ozzie » Fri Jun 29, 2007 9:24 pm

ok guys and girls, here at RAF Akrotiri we race these lil bikes for charity. normally a 6 12 or 24 hour race, the next race is not for 2 or 3 months.

you all no what a landie is lol so i dont need to explain this.
but the rules are simple only landie/chappie 2 stroke 50cc automatic bikes,
front and rear brakes. any mods u want it doesnt matter as long as the bore is no bigger than a 59cc yes u can bore to 59cc if u wish. bikes need to be in good condition no fuel leaks and must have some kind of speedo that measures how far u have gone.

if u have any questions feel free to email me, enter the subject as chappiethon.

we need more teams

note there were only two bikes left in this race me and the red number 34 hence why we need more teams cause sometimes they break down lol we normally start with 6 bikes but that day we started with 4 and lost 2.

thats what i like :D good lad. races are normally run for a minimum of 6 hours teams normally consist 2-3 riders reason for this lol is its bloody hard work to run a landie at full throttle chucking it into coners etc for more than an hour at a time
