True. I think a triple would sit very nicely in that frame with very few mods.....

I wish it was Eddy.
Im gonna being buying lots of lottery tickets , then i might stand a chance of being able to buy a nice new chassis.
Then i could have a battle with people , instead of bringing up the rear of the p3's.

A big 900 Wessie in a new chassis - two words spring to mind - Houghton and Nick!! Our famous aerobatic chump, sorry champ! It's going to need a bit of work to be ready for Knockhill. The word was it could be out at Donington - that's if any of us are out at Donington - and the word is that we will be.
I was talking to Reg Patten today - the 1400 Imp testing seems to be going well.

If only we did get to battle with u on a regular basis, instead of one race out of four over a weekend.

My money would be on Nick Houghton or Brian Gray. No matter its a lovely thing, and using the rule of thumb ! I would say its built to the same diamensions as a Windle ! The 10" wheels are the give away.

No, not at all. It is just getting frustrating that we feel we could go faster but the chassis is saying otherwise. It would be great to be able to afford a new chassis like that just to see.
I am sure Windle were not the only chassis maker to use 10" wheels?
