ECTA land speed race weekend coming up. Wish us luck.

BSA, world's best motorbike.

Just got back from the races early Monday morning, lots of good stuff happened over the weekend for Land speed racing, none for us though. More info and pics later but for now I'll leave you guys with a "just off the starting line" photo.

Kicking butt and taking names.
ECTA Award banquet was a good time, racing this weekend didn't go as well as we had hoped but we can say we where there when our good friend, "Wild Bill", went 272mph to become the world's fastest motorcycle.

Wish us luck...

Next weekend is our first race of the season, the bikes are all fine tuned and ready to rock and roll. How's 92.6 wheel HP out of a slightly under-bored and stock stroke 60's A65 BSA sound to you guys?

April is the first LSR meet of the year, dyno tuning starts on Monday.

...and all you'll see is its Lucas taillight.

Check out this months issue of Ironhorse for Josh's article on this past year's Maine land speed racing meet and mention of our Land speed racing team along with some great photo's

This past year was very memorable, we broke a record or pushed our own record up every time out. We also finished 10th in points for the year out of 140 motorcycles in the ECTA. And we recorded what seems to be the highest speed for a twin cylinder BSA motorcycle in the world at 154mph. I can only hope that we will continue with our progress next year and are really looking forward to getting back to Loring, Maine for that beautiful 1.5 mile strip and ever increasing speeds.
