H2 Sidecar has success with first outing.

Post by h2chris »

This is the sidecar outfit owned & raced by Frank & wife in France. He took it out last weekend and won all three heats - he's very pleased!!
It had a few problems last year after fitting my big reed conversion & porting with running out of fuel. Of course, sidecars stay level when going around corners so Frank fitted a fuel pump & regulator for this season and he says it now runs beautifully. It pulls hard out of corners and has been revving to 10,000rpm. Congratulations to him and his wife!

his name is BERTRAND, finished second on the classic championship last year and Guillaume from FGMS worked on the engine too: he has a round crankcase on his H2 engine 8)

Brian,

that's what I was thinking. It must be quite a bit of weight to pull around a circuit. Mike Barrett has the same set-up on his H2. :D
