Title: Early Speedway Sidecars
Post by: Doc on March 11, 2009, 08:54:35 pm

While hunting the net for a little local Ekka Speedway history I stumbled upon this sidecar site. Probably way behind the times but I thought a link to it maybe of interest to some who like me witnessed many great sidecar races at the Ekka in the 70's. For the record, as a kid my hero of the local chairs was big Ron Johnson on his black Vincent 8) he also kinda looks a bit like Lozza I reckon ;D that be him on the right in the first picture below. Check the size of the rear sprocket, the Vincent certainly didn't lack any mumbo 8)
