Wow Robin, those miniature cities are amazingly complex! Thanks for posting!
VEry cool. Makes me feel humble.
Here is a link to some Classic sidecar racing from Paeroa street races. Its run as a fund raiser for the community, entries unfortunately were down across all classes this year which is a shame as it’s a fun day.
If you are wondering what happened in the first race it was a broken earth wire on the fuel pump. Race 2 was better.

Pete & Bryan in the #250, taking a huge leap out front in the 1st lap!
You weren't kidding about that engine getting you a good launch.
Very impressive, a serious contender...

2M It was good but it looks even more impressive when the fastest bike of the day gets a poor start.
Usually we run mid field when the real fast boys come out to play but a long as you have someone to race against its great fun wherever you are in the field.
