SlowPoke Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 saw this item on ebay, claims to---- '....add several mph to the top speed due to decreased drag' http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Single-Dominator-Black-4-Small-Headlight-Motorcycle-Base-Mount-Kitcar-Headlamp/221227534484?_trksid=p5197.m1992&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D14%26meid%3D8209105215275325997%26pid%3D100015%26prg%3D1006%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D221227534484%26 ??? ???

User0083 Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Possible... However wind direction could effect the top speed. I noticed 7" to 5 3/4" made a difference... Slightly narrower, but more focused, beam!!!! Slightly O/T, I changed to crystal halogen lamps, with extreme brilliance H4's.... About £45 in total, but lights as good as the tin top now. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380432375595?redirect=mobile Quote

SootySport Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 That's Russ Bost selling parts, just round the corner from me, He's a damn good Kit Car designer and builder so don't have a go at him. Dominator headlights are smaller and cause less drag same as anything else. The 5mph. more may be a little overestimated I feel. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Funny, nobody laughed when they swept the Speed Series a few years ago. (Or before that in other events where people started turning the headlamps round so that the curved "aerodynamic" side faced forward). Quote
martyblues Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Maybe it should be called Tescoing, "every little helps" ching ching Quote
stephenh Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 The dominator is the same as lights often referred to on this boardroom as M & Ps I think. Lots have them, including quite a few of the road going classes in the Speed Series. No idea how much potential speed they add, but as already said, every little helps! Quote
User0083 Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 I also love the black cow. And there is nothing better than chewing on a plopp Gotta be careful saying stuff like that in Birmingham. "You're a right cheeky little monkey, ain't ya" Does not go down either!!!! Quote
User0083 Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Me cheeky? Not as cheeky as the Ghanaian my wife called a cheeky monkey!!! Not a pleasant reply. Quote
