We're proud to announce that up-and-coming circuit racer Josh Brown will be racing our Polini-prepped 70cc Piaggio Zip in next year's BSSO scooter series. At the ripe age of 15, Josh is already demonstrating great skill out on the track and we're very pleased to be able to support him next season. These developments mark an exciting step forward for Adrenalin and our involvement with scooter racing.On Sunday 11 October, we took Josh along with the Zip down to Santa Pod Raceway in Bedfordshire for some performance tests on the drag strip. Track time delays due to bad weather, a strong head wind and traction issues dictate that more quarter mile testing is needed. Alterations to improve the performance of the Zip are due to be carried out by Daryl Taylor at 50cc Tuning in Doncaster before the next race meeting at Elvington in North Yorkshire on Sunday 18 October. Daryl will also continue to assist with ongoing engine work and in the paddock next season.
Get the full story and the quarter mile times in the second part of our online 'Project Zip' feature available soon at www.adrenalin-pedstop.com
