Looks like the 'little' 500 mx bikes have no chance against that beast :D

Is there any convention or reasons for which side you run the chairs? Seem to be a bit of variation in the field.

Last season Hansi did some training laps on a modern WSP Husaberg 570. He was 5 secs per lap quicker than on the Jumbo. :o
This year he is having another crack at the championship. :o :o 8)

Hey Yungy,

Mate have you got your chair going yet? Are you Geoff and you to Odd1 going to enter the Titles? Did they not say if they get a few entries they would see what they can do for the Pre 90 chairs? Walter I'm shaw a lot of people would love to see the Jumbo go round.

With you guys all keen to go and with mine that makes 5 Pre 90 I'm sure Wayne would be keen also that makes 6 of the big Pre 90s and 5 of them big great sounding 2 strokes..

I did think of changing the engine in mine to a LC4 but like ya say you got to love the sound of 2 strokes.
IN IT FOR THE FUN OF IT. LIKE MR NIKE SAYS JUST DO IT.

Yeah l no what you mean Walter..  You would think someone at MA would have used a little foresight and made a pre90 class to be the same as the solos.

Yungy. I also would love to have a go on a Jumbo. But who would race against you knowing they wouldn't get near you. Walter was it your Jumbo at the 1986 Ausie champs at Raymond terrace? I have video footage of that bike in action. ;D
You don't have to be, but it helps.
