That's similar to the bike that donated its front forks to the c-5000 project....do you think Matt is working on a c-5000 Mk2 ?? :-X

The guys at AER warned me this could happen....an ever increasing thirst for speed that cannot be quenched  :o

..looks like the AER "bug" has really taken hold...Plod, Scott and "Goldfinger" all going for 24v conversions.

Next years event should be good ...proper c5 drag racing  ;D
