Jack William's Syndicate Scuderia Dragster



The photos in the last post are of a well known local dragster raced by a long time local racer and enthusiast Jack Williams.  He has a type of a racing museum now in Aldergrove.  Thanks to befastpast.blogspot.com for the vintage magazine cover and information; go there for more information about the lower mainland's racing past!

RIP, Marco Simoncelli


As an avid MotoGP fan, I was shocked and horrified to see Marco Simoncelli crash and eventually die during the Malaysian race this weekend.  I always got a kick out of his riding style, and he was such a personality on the paddock, with his crazy hair.  What a terrible loss for his family and fans, and for motorsport in general.  Remember his family in your prayers.  RIP, Marco Simoncelli.

The Lion and the Lamb Sign





I made this sign for an art show at my church, hence the surrealist Christian imagery.

SV650 With Emgo Cafe Racer Fairing


So I decided to go with a red racing stripe to break up the black of the fairing.  I might still paint it though.

My SV650 With a Cafe Racer Fairing








I bought this EMGO cafe fairing.  I'm still not sure as to whether it should stay all black or if I should paint it red.  It needed some cutting to fit and I made up my own brackets as the stock ones were awful to try and fit to the SV.

This machine needed lettering to finish it off.  Here are the before and after shots.  Thanks for the call, Joyce!
