Title: AMA blog, about CL speed
Post by: Dane Martin on November 28, 2016, 10:04:51 AM
The folks at AMA often have nice surprises. I was looking for a pic of Mike Hazel's "the move" and came across this. It's from June or July, so pretty recent.

PS, anyone have a pic of "the move" formula 40 or C speed set up

yah, the D engine is really interesting. Going to make an aluminum drum to replace the heavy steel one. Waiting on the spinner to arrive from down under so I can fit it all into a pan. The piston and liner fit are really sweet.

I'll keep an eye on this one, - the D Speed MDS (if I can remember).
I've got one of those engines.

All of the exterior mods are made...it now fits in the cowling.
Just located some 7068 alum to remake the drum, so it should be a few more weeks before I get part 2 published.

I think it's fitting to put Boris into a Pink-o Lady. More on this later
