I pulled this off of YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8ESBANM3FE Looks like in the U.K. This guy driving this Drak is awfully quick on that narrow course. I noticed on lap two he got sideways a few times. Looks like a blast.

I wonder what Engine that is, it sounds a lot like the Tigers, but somehow a little different, might be the fact that he wasn't hitting the rev limiter all the time like I do?

At the end, he made a different turn at the last intersection, I wonder if that was a mistake.

I would really like the know the distance of a lap to see what kind of speed he was running.

Dennis, next time we need to try pavement, better traction and no dust for the follower.

I think the Engine is a Honda 600. There was a remark next to the video about it. The Brits also run Honda 929s in their open class. But yes, it sounds a lot like the Tigers. I did hear a few times that he was in high gear and with similar gearing he was cooking along. Noticed how fast some of the fences went past him and, gulp, wondered what he would be clocked at?
