Stoneleigh 2008 The weather was a little mixed, but in spite of that some 20 JZRs came over the weekend. Several new members came, some with and some without their cars and we met many of our old friends, some with JZRs and others who have reluctantly had to sell them. We had a good AGM with plenty of positive discussion. Malcolm Lindley took over the vacant post of chairman. The Minutes will be in the June/July edition of Pilots' Notes. Roger T came with an interesting adaption to the steering which allowed a JZR to be towed easily. He has a Pan with a large cooler on the top. The steering adaption interested us particularly as we had experienced thetyres 'scrubbing' round sharp corners, leaving precious rubber on the road. We were very grateful for all friends who came early and stayed late to help both in putting up the tent and dismantling it. We could not get it done without them. We had heavy rain during the night but it had mainly dried out by early afternoon. It just needed some draping over trailers at home and luckily we have had a very hot and sunny week. There will be a Stoneleigh 2008 gallery and I promise it will not be as late as last year. Evelyn & Brian

Latest on SVA from John Ziemba I had a pan euro JZR for SVA last week and it passed first time, so now all the models will be able to comply. The chap who tested it was very interested as he had never tested one before and came up with a few suggestions to make both our lives a bit easier. I think this may be worth a mention as there seems some confusion about JZRs being able to pass the SVA test with open engines. Anyone who is preparing their JZR for SVA is welcome to contact me for a chat on 01254 760620. John The form to fill in about SVA for John is now on the Spares, Regalia page

JZR - DAYTONA FROM JOHN ZIEMBA LATEST UPDATE At home in Rossendale, up in the cold, dark and wet windy valley, lives a yellow JZR Daytona, the first of the breed to pass the stringent 'SVA' Designer and builder John Ziemba refers to the Dayona as 'A point and squirt ' which is perfectly true but I haven't found the limits yet and don't intend to!! It really is ballistic. For a full insight into the joys of the Daytona don't miss the Spring edition of Pilot's Notes. Daytona Dave
Webmaster's Note: With the SVA for three wheelers with us, John Ziemba has created this completely new design JZR - DAYTONA which is a rear engined trike with the donor being a T595 triple injected Triumph Daytona. The engine produces 128bhp at 10200 rpm with another 12bhp available with a special exhaust. Initial trials gave blistering performance.
