    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I will get you all a picture of my recent "BUY" and like Bill say`s just waiting on a bearing for the rear end. Just got the rear disc today from Blowerbike and it looks brand new:D. I have put the old man off to the side so I can get the dragbike ready for the season. I have to send out the crank to be rebuilt due to sloppy connecting rods from blasting with the turbo:D so... off to Gardner crank shop in Mass.

I raced at BIR in 02 for the "BIG RACE" which was all bikes!!! I love that track:clap: and the people are cool as hell:D Where else can you "PIT" in the shade of a tree in grass and have Papa Johns pizza delivered to your pit on a quad:eek:...I had a ton of fun there.
 
This is another old school bike but not the one that this thread is about. I just picked this guy up from a friend and am planning on racing it later on in the year. I just cut all of the vinyl and put it on the one piece body...enjoy:D. Oh if anybody is counting this is #13 that I have in my harem (lucky):eek:

Kris,
That thing is Koowell :dancing:.

Paint looks like if you shot a clear over it it would be really nice. I know that is a drag body, but never seen an EZ/ED with suare headlamp :D.

Wanna see it sometime.

Ya, I would definatly be wearing earplugs around that thing.
I can remember being at the drags, in the pits and standing about 10 feet from an alcohol funny car idling, it was like someone beating on my chest:eek:
Darn good thing they didnt decide to rev it even a bit:eek:.
