The kwaker looks mean...

How do you go round corners paul, i assume you cant lean, so do you just steer with the handlebars in an exaggerated way?

the trike does lean a little but not much its all steering with the bars
you would be shocked how fast they can go round corners though
im paralized from the chest down so no stomache or lower back muscle;s
so i still lean into the corner because the g's try and push me off
infact i think it will spit me off before it goes up on two wheels
its planted Very Happy
the black quacker did have a spoiler on but he lost it last year at the ramsey sprint
he drags it all the time Thumbs Up

Quite interesting, it must take some getting used to, does the pretty poor steering lock on sports bikes make much of a difference to the handling then? Im trying to get my head around the demands it must place on the front tyre not leaning but still carrying speed....

Oh and i think i remember you saying you live in or around uxbridge?, if you are ever out for a ride send me a PM, i would love to see that beastie in action Thumbs Up

Dunno matey, this is £30, no more than 100 vehicles on the day so a fair few runs for sure. Seems reasonably good value to me, considering this is the Uk we live in! Thumbs Up

As RWYB days continue to grow in popularity Santa Pod Raceway have decided to make a limited number of advance sign on vouchers available for RWYB days. These vouchers are intended for use by drivers traveling long distances to the raceway in order to guarantee track time.

Doesn't say much on the ticket itself to be honest mate, I just saw the invitation to go along with a few of the GixerJunkies lot and I thikn maybe 10 of them have already booked up. Fingers crossed it's good weather.
