And just in case Night Fury makes the Titles......

And just for a bit more fun, if you use WAZE for your navigation, you can select Toothless the Dragon instead of a car or bike. (photo to come)

On another note, I was this 🙏 close to bench testing this setup until I tried linking the clutch to J shaft chain....and couldn't.
So I have a delema,
1. Looses 10 nuts and bolts, move both the rear axle and J shaft or
2. As I need to remove the engine and finish the mounts anyway, add a wedge (a few washers) to the front mount, effectively giving me the room to add the joiner link.
Hmmm 🤔
UPDATE, Just realised I can link the chain just before I bolt the engine back in, and if I find the chain becomes too tight, that will be a tomorrow job. Cause why do today, when you can put it off for tomorrow.

A few weeks ago I had my shoulder cleaned up whilst under (thank F) anaesthetic.

Since then we have missed the last two club races. Its bit of a concern, as 1. North Queensland Mower Racing Club Inc July race is the Clubs major meet of the year, the NQ Titles and 2. although its 3 weeks away, I don't know if my body is going to be race ready.
