Nice machine Jeffy, although the TYRES!!!!!!!!! Benny should have had some Stelvio's Stashed somewhere :shock:

Kojacks + Corners = Slojaks :?

i think that possiblly better geometery is needed in those trikes which find them slow

because why else would we be running them

stelvio's i'm sure that there is some there in 20inch that is but there's a reason why we are roll jaks :)

Nice pic lachie. I heard jeff rode on two wheels for half a lap when he blew that tyre. So it's not just for show.

Maybe that's how you get the exceptionally low rolling resistance from kojacs?

:lol: FWIW, I heard someone say they thought they could smell the rubber burning as some trikes went around the hairpin :roll:

Yes, Slugger that two wheeler is nothing, I think it was Jeff, but when I was out riding I saw that bike do two wheels from coming out of the uturn/hairpin all the way to the next corner, I was just waiting for it to come crashing down but never did. :mrgreen:

Yeh Jeff, you passed me on the hair pin, then I was behind you the whole way waiting for you to flip over. Then I heard you on the microphone saying about it. :mrgreen: Skillful stuff.

What I couldn't work out was that it was fairly obvious to us at the hairpin that you had a problem of some sort the lap before when you lost ~50 seconds to Kel in one lap, yet you went around again?

yeah my lap times were getting on the slow side for a few laps i just thought that my legs were stuffed as i had a big week leading up to the casey event and wasn't feeling all that good. Just went through my lap times started the stint at 2:00 min laps 3rd lap 2:10 4th 2:15 5th 2:12 6th 2:14 7th 2:19 8th 2:18 9th 2:30 when i saw that i told them i was coming in two corners later i was riding towards the top pond on the grass. kind of glad the tyre was going flat because those lap times where not making me feel all that great not to mention almost blowing out my knees due to pushing so hard.
