Welcome to the Team

NOTICE:
Team Funds Special Offers!

Well the team have a new website and company. Fortunately they will be helping us change our appearance over the coming year, so please bear with us as we evolve. Be scared Darwin, be very scared as who knows what we will evolve into, hehehe.

Things are going to change so as to allow for lots of interaction with the site for you all. This is only a start, as we have some grand ambitions, especially with regards sections for each bike, event specific notes, and our online team diaries.

The new people adecs have only been on the job for a short time, so only some basic stuff is working at the moment, but you will be surprised what we have in the pipeline for your viewing pleasure. :)

06/05/2008: Work Commitments & Website Updates

Due to work commitments for this coming month, both Les and I will struggle to have time to provide any significant updates to the website.

However, this does mean that in June we are likely to be doing a lot. Please stay tuned for any new items of interest.

Kind regards, Scott

29/04/2008: Mr Stedman in NASTy Mugs

Mr Stedman kindly sent me a picture of himself and his bike Taz for inclusion in the NASTy Mugs section of the site, and one I thought I would attach to here to show you a nice side-on of Taz.

If you click on this link to the full news article, you will even see a photo of Kirsty

01/04/2008: Event Notes Up - Easter Thunderball 2008

We have put up some notes about the Easter Thunderball which I was working at recently. The event was fun, albeit not that productive on the racing side due to the surprise weather. However, you can find these notes about the Easter Thunderball 2008 here on the Events page.

01/04/2008: A Polaris Update

Spec has built the expansion chambers which are the biggest ones he has ever constructed to date. However, now that we have them fitted so many other things can happen, i.e. seat rails, and where we are going to put things like the raditaor, fuel tank, fuel pump, etc.

Sadly there are no photographs as we have a new camera, and I haven't figured out how to use it properly yet.

This was just a brief update to let you all know, and that there may be more news with some photo's in the coming weeks/months.

01/04/2008: Email we received regarding the Cooper Jap V Twin Race Car

Now how is this for a bit of news. We posted that article a while ago regarding a Cooper Jap V Twin Race Car - Wow!!!!!, and just recently we received an email out of the blue from James Good.

Quote - James Good:
I happened to come across your website and saw some pictures of a Cooper V Twin you pictured and commented upon. Its owned now by a David Fyfe in Scotland but was my father's (David) Hill climb Championship winning car of 1961. Just out of interest, where did you see it?

I just thought I would post that here and say thanks to James for having contacted us. It is a lovely little car, and well worth the time we spent corresponding. Thank you also for that little piece of history, and I hope she is an championship winning car for her new owner.

01/04/2008: New Team Sponsor

The team has a wonderful new sponsor that has joined our proud collection of sponsors. SKILLNET has joined us recently, and more details regarding them can be found on either our Sponsors page including their contact details.

07/03/2008: NASTy Mug's

Well, here is a new piece of news for you all. We have decided to do a little secton on the SuperTwin's as we felt that whilst we talk about many people fairly regularly, it is not that easy for people that do not know the people of whom we speak to associate the names with faces at the track.

So we decided we would put together a small section about NAST, and more importantly all the Members that comprise the National Association of SuperTwins. This way, hopefully, people will be able to know who we are talking about, and perhaps even approach any of us if they would like to talk all things drag bike racing.

Just a Note for SuperTwin's Members: If you do not like the photo we have here for you, please feel free to send us another photo you would prefer to have us use instead. Also, if you are missing from the list and would like to be added, please also inform us so we can correct the oversight!

26/02/2008: Photo's from the Tail-End of Last Year

Just some photo's from the tail-end of the 2007 season. I thought some of you might enjoy looking at these. Just click on the title to this news article to see them.

05/02/2008: New to 2008 season

We have bought a camcorder, made for filming extreme sports, so the plan is to take lots of footage from the front of my gas bike, the side, the back etc. and put it all on my web site. We might even put a few on U-tube, then you can all see what I see.

05/02/2008: Causing a STORM

A great Yarmouth based band, now making it on the Norwich scene. I have seen this band at least half a dozen times and they are brilliant, they do covers, all the ones we know and love and boy do Storm get the place rocking. If you get the chance to see them it's well worth it, and so that you can recognise them here are a few photos.

05/02/2008: 2008 Calendar's All Gone Gnome

Well the little Gnomes and Pixies came in tanks and helicopter gun-ships, and raided the Gnome wearhouse where we had kept all the 2008 Calendars. Fortunately for us, we had all sold out so the only thing they managed to escape with was the card-board boxes, and perhaps a pair of my old smelly socks (you know what Gnomes are like).

Next year will be a special 5th Anniversary Calendar, so I would have to say now book early to avoid disappointment, as they went like a flash this year, rather like our bikes! hehe

05/02/2008: Mik's Caravan

Mik at Stiks, one of our many calendar sponsors, and a damn fine tattoo artist, has kindly donated to our team a nice little caravan for this season. As you may remember our caravan fell in half on the way home from the National Finals!! Thank you very much Mik

22/01/2008: Calling ALL Super Twins NAST Members!

Hi all! Well this is a new one that you probably weren't expecting! I'm wanting a picture of each of you. I am planning to put together a page or two about Super Twins and it's members, and I thought it would be nice to have a photo of each of you on the page, so if people are interested in talking Super Twins and see us at a track, they may just recognize someone.

If I don't already have a photo of you, please can you email one to me at the usual email address, so we can get this little project of mine up and running. If you don't have my email address, just use the Contact Page, and we will get back to you, at which time you will then have it.

18/12/2007: Santa Pod Racers Club Perpetual Awards for the 2007 season

Once again the Santa Pod Racers Club Perpetual Awards are with us, this time for the 2007 season. We have been nominated as one of the six Best Looking Bike's, with a nice shot of Tilly 3 in full Streamliner!

It is a vote based system to show support for bikes, and we would obviously be happy if anyone would like to vote for us. However, if you choose to vote for us, please only vote once. It's rather smart anyway, as it will only allow one vote from an internet address, but we don't want any vote rigging or anything of the likes, we would just like you to vote once if you think it's a nice bike in the competition. You can find more details about the awards by following this link to the Santa Pod Racers Club Perpetual Awards for the 2007 season

18/12/2007: Holli B on Bennett's Bike Insurance Babe Search!
