Featured Kellys Speed Outlet

Hi all,

Not one for advertising, but i run Kelly's Speed Outlet, its a small place i have that is designed for classic and vintage racers to get their bikes prepped for racing, whatever that may be.
Based in North Lincolnshire

wow thats a beauty, you fancy racing vintage flat track?
Gary from Sportax is the man for all things Rotax,
If its the 500 rotax you want the delorto pfh 36, great carb, and tune-able too, Mikuni work really well, and come up more often at better prices.

 

racing is what iv done for many years in one form or another, im trying to diversify, move my objectives as i get older, and flat tracking and straight line is where im at in life. I have a old BSA which is on here somewhere that i love straightlining on, along with a zoo of other contraptions.
kettles always on too

 

what this old nail haha

 

thanks guys, at some point when i find the time, i have a bsa lightweight bantam thats getting a speedway conversion and a JAP motor with 2 speed box.
but i have enough going on sorting my shop truck out at the mo.

petes a good bloke, he really knows his stuff, and if you have done a lesson with him, you will have come out well
you should do it, its a great laugh, and in the main unless your in DTRA championship contention, its just a fun day out for not a lot of money.
You can do a whole variety of classes, from inappropriate road bike, where scooters to bmw gs race, to street tracker, or even if your bike fits the class full flat track.
Im flat track racing sunday but in 2 classes im also taking a vintage to race.
i was nearly tempted to race my scrambler,

 

yeah only now and again, its fickle 6v electrics cause issues, i need to rid most of the electrics from it, but each time i get ready to start stripping it down i just look and think, na, looks right as it is, then put it back in the corner.
one day, maybe.

 

iv just raced dirtquake down at arlington stadium in August.
Never again. Not even bothered about the DTRA points. Iv never been to an even so policed that you couldnt take videos, they wouldnt allow it. ITV own the rights now to DQ, its all just publicity. We had our 1st quick 4 lap practice at 11am, (if you dont know arlington, its got a very very awkward 1st turn you need to learn) then nothing on track until 2 pm, track wasnt even being used, as John Mcguiness and co were playing look at me around it.
1st moto 4 laps, i placed 4th, 45mins later 2nd moto of 4 laps got stuck in traffic and placed 6th, no more after that, as i didnt qualify, so in a full weekend i made 12 laps, some only had 9 laps.

 

There was a load of us who said never again, its all part of the Guy martin publications thing, in conjunction with ITV.
raced on the sunday, it was on itv4 on the wednesday, and if you saw it, it was a joke, i Hope Pete cringed. They even had a kenny roberts 750 stroker there and you didnt see it !!!
I was talking with a pal who went with Pete to teach "the pros" how to go around the track, and what you saw was no spirit of competition, you saw what they wanted you to see, if you watch it on itv play back, look out for coco, she won thunder on a sponsored harley, in her class was tai woofended, multiple times world champ, just watch it, please you need to now lol

 

ahh this only thing i got recognised for, and its on DQ web site photo page is my boot
my metal boot has welded on the side "faster"
they didnt post other side as welded that said "fuck this"

hahaha
