Dirtquake 2018

A few shots from Dirtquake 2018, a flat track race event at Arena Essex Raceway with a difference in that most of the bikes weren't intended to be raced on dirt........everything from a Honda Cub to a Vincent

Cracking pics Tony.
If any of you are interested Arena Essex do a fantastic banger racing event called the firecracker 500 around guy Fawkes night.
This years one is the last ever and with so few tracks left will be a must see.
Locost book chassis, Undergoing testing post rebuild :D :?
Robin Hood 2B, keeping me sane
Sylva Leader, stuck to the trailer

Not bad coverage, but shame the commentary somewhat swamped the sound of the bikes. More antics in the heats that weren't televised, only the quality riders got through to the finals :lol:
