He who laughs last lahghs longest, barred for life.
Positive progress on the flower power 432 it’s nearly finished. And very exiting news on 430 track pads I have several sets being made right now and I can’t wait to try them on the open road and the beach,6 times the wear life,9 mm deeper than the originals and they don’t leave black skid marks when you turn hard on concrete. They should last longer than the engine pack

Disappointingly (due to fun distractions) I didn’t get around to chopping the front off the Saracen dragster project, however we did take delivery of some more toys. Check out the reproduction cvrt smoke dischargers we have had made-![]()
Slightly smaller tubes so a smoke Grenade won’t quite fit in them. Very legal especially, in the states 😉
