Seems innovation in sidecar racing isn't dead afterall, despite the efforts of the FIM & ACU, least not in the Camathias Cup class.

Hi Phil, double engin'd outfits arn't new, been done in the past many times
Triumphs, Konigs etc but not two Nourish Weslakes.
You would have to ask the builder.
I think the cc limit for the class is 1300cc
so I think the engines will be 500cc each???? or somewhere around there? could even be 2 x 650cc
Looks like the left hand engine runs "backwards" withthe cylinder head & cams reversed.

Watched this race in Croix France and Hengelo Netherlands. Sounds awesome. Fantastic piece of engineering. Not sure if it can be raced here, your loss I’m afraid. Julie
New bit on the side.
