ACU British Championship for Stock and Super Scooters - Round 5

[John 2]

Said I might go - and I did. Stock Scooters are standard road models. Super Scooters are tuned machines. One small problem however, was that there was a large range of performance in most races which meant that the field became immediately strung out making competitive grouping fairly rare. - More to come.

Not exactly the Tourist Trophy but probably more fun and way safer for all! Great action shots.

Thanks cgw. You say way safer but there were two collisions needing ambulances and two accidents in the first three races. I think modifying standard road scooters to perform beyond their design intent can make life a little hairy. Small wheels probably don't help either.

Thanks jeff. Strangely enjoyable even though the average lap speed was only around the 50mph mark.
