Oh My God! :o
.
It's not even 10 O'lock and the latest project is up and running and ready to cause mayhem!
.
The "Silver Bullet" Marks personal favourite is up and running and before 10am - That thing is BAD and it looks like the showdown between the Two cars will be a One car contest!
.
We were VERY fortunate that One of Jims (Lakeland) boxes had just turned up for my street bike but was vital in getting the Bullet back in action .

In a million years, I never would have imagined the CDI unit would be installed in that vehicle. If I had known, I could have given it a custom finish to better go with the other parts. :lol: I wish I could have brought my Elsinore powered sprint go-cart to join in.

That makes TWO of us! We stole a box off the bullet last year to get the "pickle" running, (which incidentally has yet to make an appearance!) The bullet had a stuck everything so even trying to get a set of old boxes working would have taken forever - Your unit turned up and has been behaving impeccably :clap:
.
We just had our first race, Mark was ahead in the bullet until he drifted to far and I claimed the lap and VICTORY! :e11
