Re: Propane conversion on Dragons' Breath Mazda 13b engine

The first bit was 3 years back when the Dragon really was simple Remember bumpstart that was still with engine #1 and now the much improved version with engine #2 https://www.youtube.com/...

Andersonville North Motorcycle rally and Races 2014

As promised some footage of the 2014 races at Young SK. Sad to say there was no modified class as I was the only one in the modified class so rather than cry over things I decided to race anyone that would with the understanding that the regular class trophy was safe from the Dragon . Lost ignition ...

Re: Propane conversion on Dragons' Breath Mazda 13b engine
