What could possibly have happenend in 3 years thats worth talking about? more of the same, dragbikes, dragbikes and more dragbikes. You get the idea right?
Facbook stole the crown when it comes to easy to publish posts, and made it easier for people to comments and exchange ideas. But i often think about my poor old Blog, it's more of a resource, a place you can find info. And i find myself referring people to it when they ask about doing stuff.
So today lets do a blog post and see if the ball keeps rolling ....
Back to 2019 and a season spent riding Bob Brooks YMR methanol bike in the funnybike class - alongside my own bike ridden by Dave Batcheler. That season was one of the best ever, it was just so interesting having effectively 2 bikes in the class, and riding Bobs bike was a great experience, and one that lead to a lot of things.
Having the bike there to look at, and working on it throughout the season taught me a lot of things - things that were once a mystery i could now see how they worked and at least partly understand, and i decided in the middle of the season that i wanted to build something like this myself.
And thats where the next chapter really begins. It was obvious that whatever i built it had to run on Nitromethane, i'd posted a few years ago that i wanted to build and ride a top fuel bike, and i can't not do it forever!
To be continued .......
