Here's a few shots of me, and Dam_Buster at Caxton Raceway on Sunday.
The pictures of me, I'm on my bike, and Rox's mini at some points.
Brilliant day, the mini-pit handles great for what it is. Fooking twitchy though! Laughing

The mudguard got smashed off the mini-pit when a young lad on a CR85 decided to stand his bike up mid corner while I was going around the outside of him, and ride straight into the front of me. Laughing

This was the point I insisted that we split the sessions up into age / skill groups.

I was happy to pass all the younger lads on their mini motos and pit bikes along the straights.
But the lad on the CR85 was leaving me for dust on the straights, then holding me up something rotten in the corners, which left me with no choice to pass him mid corner. He was just a little in-experienced and needs to understand that you cant keep changing direction mid-corner when there is traffic around you. Laughing


All in, was an amazing day!

Next one will probably be Whilton Mill on the August Bank holiday. We're expecting around 500 people to turn up if it's warm.
Anyone in the Daventry, Whilton Locks area, get your self along.
Even if you dont have a bike, I'll be taking both my bikes, Dam_Buster will be there on his, a few mates will be coming along, most have two bikes.

So bring your leathers, and take one of our bikes out.
The bikes are paid for and tagged at the track, not the riders, So we just swap and change bikes.

Around that track, probably no more than about 45mph on the red mini-pit, and about 55mph on my KZR160.

At Whilton Mill, both bikes will easily top out on the back straight.
The mini pit wont do much more than 50mph anyway.
The KZR160 will see it's way to about 70/75mph.

It's brilliant fun, and a very cheap way to get into motorsport on a regular basis. We do a couple of track days each month.

He's on a Demon X - XLR160, but with a highly tuned YX150 engine fitted.
Reason for this is, they have a shorter stroke than the YX160, making it a "square" engine. Super revvy, and it smashes my YX160 up the straights.

The bike is a CRF70 based frame, with re-worked forks, and a piggyback 1000lb shock fitted.
Supermoto wide wheels, with a Sava Supersoft rear tyre, and a CST Slick front, which has been cut to an intermediate pattern.
Brembo twin pot caliper on the front, with a 220mm rotor. It's a bit of a tool. Cool

Everyone had a good day. Get your self to Whilton Mill on the August Bank Holiday Paddy!

Good stuff!
It's about 170mile for me I think, but I do love the tracks, so it's worth the drive.

I need to fix my trailer. It came un-hitched on my way out of the services, just north of Essex, and found it's way across the road into the front of a Transit van. Embarassed

Cracked the bumper, which I sorted the bloke out for, but it's smashed the headboard on my trailer. LOL!

Pretty cool, got a cam corder Ben? A video would be great to see maybe.

How much did it cost you in total? I recall you said it was up to 200 quid at a point. Not bad price really!

Dam_buster has some footage on a Go-Pro, but he's moving into a new house atm, so quite busy.

The Mini owes me about £250/£300 in total now. And The blue Stomp owes me probably a Grand. But it's a race ready bike tbh, and a good enough spec to win races too.



Gaz, Come along mate. Whilton are pretty relaxed about the bikes. Just make sure it's not excessively loud.

Yeah, I built it, so that's what it owes me, £250/£300.

And of course it's not road legal, neither of them are. lol.

Trust me, you wont destroy the FAB Championship boys on their 160s.

Maybe on a track like Whilton Mill, where there are plenty of straights to make up time on a fast bike, but the likes of Ryan, Jake and Dayne (3 of the front runners), will leave most competitors for dead.

I consider myself pretty fast, I managed a 39.5 - 40 sec lap at Stretton Karting, on a modified 160.

Jake can do a 37 sec lap on a standard 140.
There is an easy 3 second lead there, on a bike with 2/3 the power.


Anyway, You're right, they cant compete under the Fab classes, the only 2 strokes that can are the KTMSX65's, and anything else <65cc.

And tbh, they are useless, even the metrakit boys just hold up the pit bike boys when they run the classes together at certain tracks.
