Not a smooth test session for Martin and I but a new set of electrics saw Martin ready to go. The sidecar had a few problems as well as we lost the spark and couldn't find it anywhere. In the end it was a broken wire and a bit of soldering later and it was running. The solo bike had problems as well, It will start ok but goes through a rough patch for a while and then clears and runs fine. A bit of investigation needed. Both the solo bikes were flying and alot of comments about how fast we were could be heard all over the paddock. After a few laps Martin was doing regular 1min 15secs and the odd 1min 14secs. I managed a 1min 13.8secs but the two bikes are quite evenly matched. The sidecar managed a few laps but it was plagued with problems due to a bad fuel line. I could not get any decent fuel pipe in time so i was using car fuel line which kept collapsing and shutting the fuel off. It will be sorted for race day. Other than that it was going great. We have a new member to the team called Jim (who helped out on the sidecar last year) so his membership to the club is on its way. The competition is going to be very tight this season so you could all do with going along to watch as i dont think that the racing has been this close in the history of scooter sport. Cheers Ed
