any pics from the day??
It would seem that there will be 1 less competitor at the rerun of the Nostalgia Drags.
For those that have not heard, Burgo managed to destroy his A coupe at last weekends Nostalgias at Ballarat. Fortunately he walked away unhurt. Pretty amazing when you see the accident.
Here's a video:

Here's a pic of the car at the last round at WSID.

I love prangs and accidents like that where the competitor comes over as quick as possible.
Sort of goes from wanting to "kill" the other guy to helping them out, it doesn't get any better in my eyes.
Who remembers the big crash Craig Lowndes had at Calder Park at the end of the main straight a few years ago? I was there and saw it happen before me as I was up that end. To see how many cars stopped racing and went to his aid was a real eye opener.
Cheers M
it's smashed but not destroyed ;) it will return but with out that engine the missus has put her foot down, here's some still shots that look kinda worse than the vid

Alex
mark,i saw those handle bars stickin out the tonneau cover when you were coming in to the drags.
i ve built some crazy low rider pushbikes ,so i was wondering intensely what was under there.
now i know.
was hoping to see ya cruisin on it but didn't
thanks alex for the pic
after so much walkin i'm putting a motor on one.
maybe we can start a mini bike class
Waynos the bike is Jackson's he is 12years old I did it up for him so he let me have a ride ....Last time I took the Dexon the Security got me for ridding it around when they finally caught me told to to put it away or get out ........FC427......
isn't that odd....
you can have a drive a 1000hp machine champing at the bit which is not street legal, but riding a pushbike is way too dangerous...
LMAO

LMAO
as long as it has a motor huh.i think there's still a chance of a nostalgia motored pushbike class!
we could also put electric motors on them and argue the point that they run em at bonneville(i think the record is around the 100 mph)i suppose it is a motorbike frame though.
100 MPH on a Pushy would be scary for us old folks :o :o The Dexon at 60MPH on those little mini bike wheels makes your heart pump .......FC427......
we want pics of this bike Mark!
sounds like fun.
100 miles an hour is scary for most anyone ,let alone on a pushbike,
and as ed said, show us some pics of this dexon baby.i think maybe you were havin too much fun on it when security stopped you.
security guards don't like fun .it makes them have to work ;D
