Bit of a project going on that is proving to be a bit of a job.

Read some details here http://celeresracing.blogspot.co.uk/

the internals start here http://celeresracing.blogspot.co.uk/...ine-strip.html

Enjoy

Bit of a project?

Bit of an understatement.

It'll be fine.

Cheers

Now subscribed to both blogs, can't wait to read how you guys get on... I foresee a few late nights ahead!

Flip · 31-03-2014, 05:18 PM

Excellent stuff- love it!!!

Will that get through noise testing at CC?

I want to take my little racer down there but was unsure whether it would pass or not.

Do they run open pit days there or only part of track days do You know?

utopia · 31-03-2014, 06:06 PM

Yay, a Ducati to race instead of a screamer.
Well, eventually anyway.
You could almost call that a monster even.

I can just imagine your grin as you set off down the glencrutchery road.

Best of luck with the season.
Will try and catch a race sometime/somewhere. ....(Ireland with any luck).

Stafford · 31-03-2014, 08:35 PM

Thanks guys, yes a few late nights ahead. Well she's in pieces now and mostly in a set of drawers in the garage.

The cans have DB killers (not required on the IoM) and I'll have to pop over and get the 888 tested prior to booking. Don't think they do open pit which would be nice for a test day.

Dukedesmo · 31-03-2014, 08:45 PM

Nice, always had a soft spot for the 888. If it's in Louigi & Chris's hands it'll be sorted when it's done.

bigredduke · 31-03-2014, 08:50 PM

I think there is an '8' missing from the decal on the bike...........................

Shouldn't it read - 38 D cup?

Nickj · 31-03-2014, 10:08 PM

looks like a nice project, best of luck with it

[QUOTE=Nickj;481389]That's a bit close to celery Stafford

That's no coincidence,as it's all I'm allowed to eat between now & The Manx,for two reasons.
1. Stafford is throwing so many lightweight goodies at it.

2. John McGuinness is,as he claims,40,fat & still fast as feck,whereas I'm only the first two,and Stafford thinks the last two are directly related.

So as he's giving me such a lovely bike,I'll do whatever he says.

Anyone know any good celery recipes?

Thanks Albie,but fear it will be celery stew with celery.

Honestly Max,as our resident Fanny Craddock,is that the best you can do?
