Used to go on this about 15 years ago, a nice event, however the route remained the same each year which got a little repetitive.

Good selection of bikes to have a look around though, and all for a good cause too.........

Nitro doesn't add power, it multiplies it! Bob Loux, running 10.07 secs @138mph on a 650 normally aspirated Triumph drag bike in 1965!

Looked to be a good turnout. I hacked up about 2:30 for when they were all back.

I wandered and looked at people's reactions to the xs - some loved it with loads of questions about it, some seemed thoroughly disgusted by it and shooktheir heads and some just blanked it completely.

That's the whole point of a custom build -built for you, not to please anyone else. Many other chops there Archie?

Could've been Steve of the Red Max Speed Shop. He's just up the road in Alresford & heavily into flat trackers, especially Triumph & XS650 twins.

Nope wasn't him.
