Dave Coupe and his Elsinore are just about unstoppable in the +40 Expert class. Dave's engine is built by Sam Alexander and just flat hauls the bacon. (For a good picture of Dave airing it out check out RacerX online http://www.racerxill.com/020604_AHRMA_BobbyM_1.cfm). Jim Dallas also rides a Sam Alexander Elsinore and last year dominated the 250 novice class. He got bumped up this year so we'll see how he does. I've built a pretty good engine and suspension for my bike and I got the NW 50+ intermediate title. I really want to ride a bike with one of Sams engines to compare. Sam and I have gone round and round over piston port vs reed valve for several years now. All in good spirits mind you. Loren |

Hi J, Sam works for the John Astelford Co. near Atlanta GA. There's a link in the Resources section of this site. Here it is: http://www.mindspring.com/~astinc/jacotop.html Both John and Sam are good and knowlegeable guys. The products they make are top-notch. Tell them I said hi. If you just want some simple port work or Sam doesn't have time I can do it as well. I'm in Northern California near Santa Rosa. Cheers, Loren |
