Small world. I was there when Vic had his moment... Me in my Zanzibar '3 CS with Manthey & Parr upgrades
Can't recall if it was the same trip but a guy totalled his '3 hitting the barriers on the right at the crest by the pit lane exit. New car, first lap, wallop....
was your baked bean sold to Russ or JohnC after? IIRC, there was a red/white 6RS that went hard against the left wall who sustained head injuries against the front roll bar section with a lady pax.Can't recall if it was the same trip but a guy totalled his '3 hitting the barriers on the right at the crest by the pit lane exit.

There's about 4 or 5 Zanzi CS's in the UK though, so pretty rare
The one i saw go to the right was a 6.2 in black. Took out the whole of the near side. Came out too far to the right at the top of Eau Rouge, truied to steer left on the crest and went into amega spin as the car unloaded. Sad to see...
We also did trips to the ring as well as TD's at Le Mans Bugatti.
Remeber the Titanic GT3 gang??
Its a vid but its a good one

One thing I noticed he's not revving it very high or it doesn't make any more useable power past this point as designed by Honda for its racekit.

It's an SV1000 John, a TL1000 (almost )motor in a modern (back in 2004) chassis, only 110bhp or so but plenty really, best sounding bike I've had, only ridden it back from Accrington, front tyre had 15psi in it when I checked it at home (machine in garage was broken) it might handle a bit better now!
Need to lose the wky flush indicators at the back and give it a thorough fettle but it's not in bad shape really

Terrific night at the Henstridge Bikers Blast yesterday. Got snapped zooming down the runway - nice to see the bike in motion (if not my pie storage unit). Photo: Leighton Teasdale Photography.

Hopefully be there next month, give me a shout if you are heading down again

Cheers, after having a couple of stupid off's last year and knackering myself up a bit I decided to have some time off, then I forgot how annoying the wife can be when we are both off at weekends so now I can escape again Jazoli said:
