It is true about the sidecar family - you can stop racing but you can never, ever leave!

Hi Bull,

Great looking frame.

We have been discussing the idea of sorting out a shipping container and bringing some outfits over to the US for a Classic Transcontinental Meeting.

It will probably never happen but you never know. What's the classic sidecar scene like where you are?

Regards,

Simon

Like most things the economy is hurting numbers, but the is a good classic group on the east coast racing with USCRA and also in Canada with VRRA. AHRMA is also building a group of racers and they race at some of the best tracks around the country and draw racers from all groups. Modern racers are running with both the SRA east and west. Here on the East they have just had the 1st Festival of Sidecar's weekend in June which they hope to build on with racing for all classes. I must get back home for Mallory Park again soon. Thanks Mike
