Hi Folks.

I just emailed some else about this strange activity I just discovered. (Henry)
Then I thought this crew would be a no brainer to share this with as well.

There is a serious chance some or all of you already know about Cycle KARTS (not cycle-cars).

I have always loved pre-war race cars. I look up stuff, do research, watch races, and hill-climbs all the time. Most of my favorite machines are what the British call 'specials'. Cobbled together shed-built confangulations driven by mad gentlemen that talk funny.

After I saw this video, I started more looking about. Turns out that not only is that wee town in WA state a half days drive from Southern BC but there are lots of Canucks doing this thing....in fact there is an event in Armstrong every summer.
When I joined a forum for more information, I discovered a fella I used to work with (Kelowna) is on the forum, building his own vehicle, and planning to attend the festivities in Armstrong in 2023.

Anyway have a look.

Cheers, Tim.
