Cool is cool

Pre-unit fetish

I have a major pre-unit fetish, especially race pre-units.

Knee dragging

Back in my younger days.

Proper break-in procedure...

Its not in the Triumph owner's manual but it should read, "Beat the shit out of your new Triumph down a Land Speed Racing course before the first 50 miles".

Wholesome

Ya right!

Some good shots from the Life archives, I especially like the first one.

Uruguay grabs final World Cup berth

Uruguay claimed the final spot in next year's 32-team World Cup in South Africa by drawing with Costa Rica 1-1 to take the two-leg playoff 2-1 on aggregate on Wednesday.

Substitute Sebastian Abreu gave Uruguay a 1-0 lead on a header in the 70th minute, and Walter Centeno leveled in the 74th on a 16-meter strike. Uruguay won the first match 1-0 on Saturday in Costa Rica.

"It was a tough game," Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez said. "Our opponents really made us work.

"Right now I want to see these guys celebrate. Really, the achievement is theirs. At one moment we were almost out of the qualifying and now we can enjoy making it."

Uruguay won the 1930 and 1950 World Cups. It beat Australia in a playoff to reach the 2002 World Cup, and lost a playoff to Australia to miss out in 2006. Costa Rica was trying to reach its third straight finals.

Brazil, Chile, Paraguay and Argentina had already advanced from South America. The United States, Mexico and Honduras are the qualifiers from the North and Central American and Caribbean region.

Uruguay had most of the early chances including dangerous strikes from Diego Forlan and Nicolas Lodeiro, which forced key saves from Costa Rica goalkeeper Keylor Navas.

Victor Nunez had Costa Rica's first threatening shot after about 25 minutes. Costa Rica's best chance until its late goal was a shot by Cristian Bolanos from long range that was turned away by Uruguay keeper Fernando Muslera.

Uruguay seemed to have the World Cup berth wrapped up after Abreu's goal, but Centeno's quick strike gave Costa Rica hope and opened up the match.

This years Land Speed Racing stats.



This year was very memorable, we broke a record or pushed our own record up every time out. We also finished 10th in points for the year out of 140 motorcycles in the ECTA. And we recorded what seems to be the highest speed for a twin cylinder BSA motorcycle in the world at 154mph. I can only hope that we will continue with our progress next year and are really looking forward to getting back to Loring, Maine for that beautiful 1.5 mile strip and seeing ever increasing speeds.

LTA Record holder,
MPS/PBF-650/4 154.059 mph,

M/PBG-650/4 127.973 mph,
