I am inspired by Larry to keep riding as much as possible even being in the mid seventies

I have pictures back in the early 80,s of Larry racing the late Elmer Trett. Larry had experimental wings on his bike. You have to love Larry and his Team

[@danmyers9372]

CI of the engine? Static compression ratio? Who does the head? How much boost? % of nitro? Final drive ratio? Please get an interviewer to ask the questions we all have in our heads.

[@EngineBuilder]

Thanks for the feedback on the type of info you want to know. We strive to do better with each of these. Sometimes, though, certain info isn't known or they don't want to share it. It's not always our fault!
