Killington Luge/DH
On 5/17/2015 PSR wrote in from United States  (65.96.nnn.nnn)

Be at Killington's Bear side on June 6th, and, but for one nasty lefty, go STUPID Fast down the hill!! Beware of that left turn, as it cost two of my boards (wooden, homemade, but, we made what no one else would, then) their footpegs, and gave me a scar that's still here on me 30 years on! Nonetheless, this is a Great Luge HILL, one that gets the blood pumping while being a predictable run.
Back in the day, we clocked 73 MPH (on Krypto 68mm and/or and Indy trucks, while on plywood sleds, equip. varied a tad), but this hill always but this hill always gave us HUGE SPEED, with a smooth run-out, and few cars. Be There if you ride fast! Enuff said....

Street Luge Chassis for sale - Price Change
On 7/13/2011 stick boy wrote in from United States  (208.65.nnn.nnn)

Well, I pulled that price out of - er - the air, and it's come to my attention that it's maybe not realistic.
If you're interested, contact me and name a price.
Here's the deal: I don't wanna give the thing away, but I do want to sell it. We can probably figure something out that makes us both happy.

Street Luge chassis for sale
On 7/2/2011 stick boy wrote in from United States  (71.211.nnn.nnn)

I'm selling an all-metal street luge chassis. It is "homemade" but is not a hack job. I've built several luges and this is an evolved drop-bed style based on accepted designs.
It has front and rear bumpers, nerf bars and upholstered pads. It's been through a couple of spinouts and has normal wear, but has never been crashed hard and is straight and true. It's a complete chassis - add your own running gear and go kick ass.
(So, I'm a skater not a lawyer, but I feel compelled to add the obvious disclaimer: Street luge is an extreme sport that carries risks including injury or death, being dumped by your spouse or girlfriend, strange looks from your coworkers, jail time, lectures from your boss, and walking around all the time with a speed-induced distracted thousand-yard stare... Buy this, fit it out and ride it at your own risk.)
Anyway, now that that's out of my system... I'd like to get $400 for it. I decided against posting this on flea-bay for now. Email me at lew isle w is99 atyahoo dot com for pictures and details. (Obviously, remove the whitespace to make a real yahoo email address.)

For Sale: TRS Street Luge
On 4/14/2011 Bowland wrote in from United States  (67.63.nnn.nnn)

For sale is a TRS street luge built by Steve Fernando. This is one of the best luges I've ever owned. I'm asking $500 for the luge without wheels or trucks. It comes with a travel bag. The bag has a shoulder and back pack straps. The board weighs a little under 21lbs without hardware. With 3 Randal Comp II's and Big Zigs it weighs close to 28lbs. I'm 5'6" so if your interested but don't think the luge will work you might be able to get it altered. I'm pretty solid on the price. For measurements, specs., more pics, and shipping you can email me at info@robertbowland.com. Here in the next few days I'm going to get the box made up and break down the board for shipment and this will help us figure out exact shipping. I will try to do my best to mail this anywhere. With all that said, please serious buyers only!!! Don't ask me about wheels and trucks because I've posted most of that on my ebay under the name: thebowlander1. Buyer pays $500 + shipping. Prefer Pay Pal.

looking to buy a street luge
On 2/6/2010 bradley-g wrote in from (70.181.nnn.nnn)

so i used to ride several years ago . i rode a few of the barrets that frank waterhouse put on in the early 2000s and the first return to bonelli (the short course) . but then had to take time to have kids and do the grown up thing . In the process i had to sell my board ( a dreggs ) . but now i want back in. so im looking for a preferably used rogers pegless or full. i read a website that had posts from like 2006 that said that was the last run they did of them that year. plus 900 hundered is not in my budget. also if anyone has a REWsports andy lally pegless that would be cool too. theyr is what i believe is george ortons rail on ebay with the wedge helmet and 6 sets of cherrybombs. but i have to pass on it cuz i think it would be an insult to him to chop the front off and turn it into a pegless. On top of that when i get one i got no one to ride with . the socal scene has pretty much gone straight stand up which is cool and all but i want to get my speed in check laying down before i jump back into standing up. thanx brad

Madison County Gravity Fest 8-2011
On 1/27/2010 gravitydrno wrote in from (70.168.nnn.nnn)

[b:2ydef0d7]Press Release- January 27, 2010DrNo RacingMadison County Gravity Festival-[/b:2ydef0d7]As most of you know Madison County Gravity Fest ran for seven (7) consecutive years beginning in 2002 on Rocks Road and in 2003 moved to East Hill Road in Munnsville where it remained until 2008. In planning for the 2009 event it was decided that the event would have to be postponed due to issues with the road along with several other issues including the economy.East Hill Road had for years suffered from problems and the community felt it was time to deal with those issues, the work was planned and then began in the Spring/Summer of 2009. Those issues were significant requiring large amounts of work to be done and progress has continued in stages. The construction on East Hill Road is slated to be completed sometime in the Spring/Summer of 2010 leaving the Madison County Gravity Fest Committee no option but postpone the return of Gravity Fest until 2011.Rest assured racers that there is work being done in anticipation of the return of Madison County Gravity Fest for 2011, this event is not ready to call it quits. There was communication about selecting a different road but it would not be the same and the committee decided for it to remain on East Hill Road.This event is not a DrNo Racing event it belongs to the people of Madison County and they ask that you, the racers be supportive as they deal with these community issues. The end result is when the event comes back in 2011 you will be racing on a NEW road with an excellent surface for racing.

Powered Streetluge Salt Flats Results 2009
On 11/23/2009 roland6250 wrote in from (209.204.nnn.nnn)

It was pointed out by Old 97 that we failed to post any Powered Streetluge Bonneville Slat Flats 2009 results so here they are.We'll we returned from the salt flats with everything intact. Even thou the event was delayed until Thursday afternoon due to rain and the courses where still quite wet we made some good runs.After we learned what we needed to do with Jenna's motor she was able to record may 100+mph runs including three 114+mph runs and let me tell you she did some incredible riding to accomplish what she did. On several runs her starts began with her sliding the whole Powered Streetluge sideways due to the wet surface and traction issues.My first pass was on a very wet course, so wet that after the 1 mile mark I could no longer read the GPS due to salt on my shield. My first run broke the 150mph mark by running a average of 150.3mph throught the 1/4 mile speed trap. On my second pass I found that 4th gear was no longer working so my second and final pass was 116mph. We made several attempts to get 4th gear back but did not have the facilities to tear down the motor on the salt flats. Have a great day,Rolandhttp://www.PoweredStreetluge.com
