Despite this report being almost a month after the fact, there is still precious little time to talk about our second event of the year. The format was standard at least; a double-header format with two, 6-lap races at Willow Springs Raceway. The most exciting thing was the unknown of Lucky 13 racing, back from … Continue reading ROUND 2 RACE REPORT: Willow Springs

2013 Round 1 Race Report: Chuckwalla Valley Reaceway
Well the season has kicked off and there is a lot to talk about, but little time to talk about it. We began this season with no major changes. Actually, we made NO changes at all besides the fuel and oil, come to think of it. The budget is already tight going into this and … Continue reading 2013 Round 1 Race Report: Chuckwalla Valley Reaceway
2012 Season Finale
I have no idea why I keep putting off a write up of the final race of 2012. I assume that I just “closed shop” in my mind and have been ignoring sidecar racing as much as possible for the last month or so. The event was rather forgettable from my perspective, but it was … Continue reading 2012 Season Finale

Pikes Peak 2012: Part 2. Race Day.
Saturday before race day is a chance to put the final touches on the machine. We had very little to do besides install the 20lbs. of ballast and clean the bike up. The MyLifeAtSpeed gang had a small get together and we were able to attend. It was great to be able to put faces … Continue reading Pikes Peak 2012: Part 2. Race Day.
THIS WEEKEND!!!
Round 1 Race Report: Las Vegas, NV
Well the first two races of 2012 are in the books. I was literally putting the final touches on the bike minutes before putting it on the trailer. The tail section could not be painted in time, so it went to battle with a fresh coat of black primer. The last minute antics would continue … Continue reading Round 1 Race Report: Las Vegas, NV
The 2012 Season Begins In A Week
Well it's been coming up fast for awhile now, but the final weekend is here, and there is still a lot to do. We sent the bike over to Becker Moto Works and had as much work as we could afford done to the bike. The biggest problem is really not possible to fix- it's … Continue reading The 2012 Season Begins In A Week

Jay Leno’s Garage Shows Off Sidecars
Pretty cool skit. Bill Becker of Becker Moto Works is the former President, multi-time (and current) SRA-West champion, and a great fabricator. He's currently working on my own bike actually, widening the rear suspension and installing a more modern shock. His efforts to bring back a vintage class to the west coast is also really … Continue reading Jay Leno’s Garage Shows Off Sidecars
