Nortons in AHRMA vintage racing

Postby grandpaul » Wed Feb 10, 2010 11:40 am

Who all here on the forum will be involved in any form of AHRMA vintage racing this season? I've only seen one or two Nortons in Production classes since 2007...

I've ponied up once again to sponsor the Novice Historic Production Heavyweight class (roadracing), and will be running AT LEAST Willow Springs and Portland International. (Sorry, it will be on my '69 Triumph )Bonnie

See you out there!

You're coming to PIR!?!?!?!

Get out!
You probably want to go into town, and find a up to date Jap Bike store,
With a full spares department, a clean workshop, and kean young mechanics.
And ask them if theres a Grumpy Old Bloke out in the Hills, who knows how to fix Real Motorcycles.

Practice day is my birthday.

I was already going to be. Need a free pit crew? :mrgreen:

Of course.

I also have 2 free passes to each race (all weekend), as one of the sponsors. First come, first served.

Yep. Disney in between race weekends, then a visit with Kenny Dreer to pick up everything he's got left over.

Paul,

Thanks for sponsoring again. I really want to come up to PIR, being I'm originally from Seattle. My family and friends will come down for the weekend.

If anyone out there has a 750 Norton (I'll even ride some "lesser" marques) they want to get out on the track, I'd really like to find a ride for that weekend.

Hey Kenny, I'm thinking I might just safety wire the '74 monoshocker and put number plates on it...
