MOTORSPORT: Wilkins' joy at national track win (From This Is Wiltshire ... - This is Wiltshire Posted: 22 Oct 2009 04:44 AM PDT MOTORSPORT: Wilkins' joy at national track win12:29pm Thursday 22nd October 2009 STAVERTON motorcycle racer Jamie Wilkins capped his season in stunning fashion at the Rockingham National circuit in Northamptonshire last weekend. Riding at the final round of the ThundersportGB series, Wilkins, 30, took a clean sweep and secured second overall in the championship. On the Saturday he grabbed pole position by a massive 1.4s in the Streetfighter class, and won the first ever bike race to be held on the National track layout. Another win in the afternoon and two dominant victories by big margins on the Sunday completed a perfect set of results. The lap record topped it all off. His tally for the year now stands at 17 wins, six pole positions and six lap records. "It was an amazing weekend," said Wilkins. "Everything went right and I felt unbeatable. My Aprilia Tuono Factory and Dunlop tyres worked brilliantly so I had strong pace from the first session. "After the really bad luck in the middle of the season that cost me the chance to race for the championship, it really means a lot to finish the year on such a high. A big group of friends and sponsors had come to watch too, and it was great to win for them. I need to say a big thanks to S&B Automotive Academy and White Dalton Motorcycle Solicitors for their fantastic support." All of the action from Rockingham can be seen on MotorsTV, Monday 2nd November at 7pm. A full season review will be shown Monday 16th November at the same time.

367 mph: Living on the edge and loving the view - Union Posted: 22 Oct 2009 12:26 AM PDT
Growing up in the 1950s, Denis Manning was like so many other boys his age, sharing the sport he loved with the man who taught him. "Of course, around that time, most kids wanted to be Mickey Mantle," said Manning, of Grass Valley. "Well, the Mickey I wanted to be had nothing to do with a stick and ball. "One year we happened to be at the Bonneville Salt Flats when Speed Week was there. It was when Mickey Thompson went 400 miles per hour (in a car). And well, you know how young kids get inspired." Manning found enough inspiration to last a lifetime, living in the fast lane for more than four decades. It's been a long and sometimes wild ride. In reaching last month's world land speed record for motorcycles, Manning has assembled a team of local people who share his passion — and who plan to keep setting more records. For the third time in his career, a Denis Manning motorcycle owns the world speed record. As previously reported in The Union, rider Chris Carr of Nevada City drove Manning's "Seven" streamliner, the seventh bike he's built in pursuit of his passion, clocking a world record 367.382 mph last month. Carr's run across those same salt flats Manning's father had introduced him to gave the motorcycle maker another world record — he first set the world standard when Cal Rayborn rode a Harley-Davidson to 254.84 mph in 1970. It wasn't until 2006 that he reclaimed the record. Not that he wasn't trying. "Getting the record was a real turning point in my life," said Manning, the 63-year-old owner of BUB Enterprises Inc., the Grass Valley-based maker of motorcycle exhaust systems. "It took me 30-some years to get it back, and in that time, I built six of the 11 fastest (motorcycles) in history ... only to fail." By the time Carr finally surpassed the world speed record in 2006, it had increased by nearly 100 mph to 350.884. Two years later, the record was gone again. Grass Valley's Rocky Robinson, a former rider for Manning, pushed the mark to 360.913 in 2008 aboard the Ack Attack. Robinson chronicled his path to prominence in his book "Flat Out: The Race for the Motorcycle World Land Speed Record." Robinson's ownership of the record lasted a little more than a year, as the mark now is once again owned by Carr, Manning and the Seven crew. "I've known most of the land speed racing greats, even all the car guys. All of them would tell you it is a big part of your life," Manning said. "Rocky is no exception. Once you've had the record, you really want to retain it. It's hard. I know what he's going through. I've been there." The world of land speed racing is a demanding one. Building a bike geared to reach such speeds is a painstaking process, Manning said. But it's a challenge he and his team relish, immersing themselves into details of design and mechanical minutia for months — all for a race that lasts less than a minute. "But this isn't racing," Manning said. "It's history-making. "In racing, all you've got to do is beat the second-place guy. In this, you have to beat the fastest of the first-place guys." And they don't come any faster than the 42-year-old Carr, the new owner of the title "the fastest man on two wheels." "This guy will go down as one of America's best motorcycle racers," Manning said. A crew of talent stands behind Carr: Many members of the Seven crew have worked together for years in pursuit of their shared passion, Manning said. Two men in particular played crucial roles in the pushing the envelope with the Seven bike. John Jans, owner of the Datum Precision CNC machine shop, has helped with the machining and carbon fiber frame of BUB bikes since 1992. Joe Harralson has been helping the team with engine design and engineering for 15 years, after hearing Manning speak at a Society of Automotive Engineers seminar. It hasn't been all smooth cycling, however. Engine failures, chassis failures, crashes, fires and bad weather seemed to conspire against Manning and his pursuit of the record. But they kept going back to the drawing board until they got it right. "You only regret the things you didn't do. If you don't try, you'll never know if you could have succeeded," Manning said. "I learned real quick that failure was only the bottom rung of the ladder. And some way, you had to get to the top of the ladder." Manning's teammates built their own engine: They crafted their own patterns for engine parts, taking the patterns to a foundry where they poured their own castings before machining the entire motor. "It shifts four gears in six-tenths of a second," Manning said with a smile. "It runs a mile in less than 10 seconds. That's pretty much half the speed of sound." Such high-end design and high-octane performance doesn't come cheap. "We always get that question: How much?" said Eric Manning, who assists his father's crew with photography and computer work. "Let's just say how much would it take to go to Porsche, for example, and say 'I want a custom engine?'" Fortunately for Manning, his business has gone hand-in-hand with his pleasure. His passion for land speed racing has provided him with plenty of opportunities to market BUB Enterprises. But the sputtering economy has taken its toll. Last week, Manning laid off 15 employees from his business on Springhil Drive. "Times are tough," he said. "Just look around. There are three empty businesses right here next to me." Perhaps the world record couldn't have returned to Manning at a better time, helping to bring attention to him, BUB Enterprises and the company's high-end exhaust systems. And considering Manning and his crew aren't about to call it quits anytime soon, they may find more marketing opportunities down the road. "The goal is to go 400 miles per hour," Manning said. "That has always been the goal. And frankly, I think we will. "My wife (Melissa) has said I've lived on the edge so long that I love the view. I don't want to back away from the view. It's too good. It's too beautiful." Contact Sports Editor Brian Hamilton at bhamilton@theunion.com or (530) 477-4240.

Nissan spreads electrics to Infiniti, vans - Automotive News Posted: 21 Oct 2009 09:56 PM PDT TOKYO -- Nissan Motor Co. will expand its line of electric vehicles to the luxury Infiniti brand as early as 2012 and also will create an electric commercial van to sell to governments and fleet customers. Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn revealed the plans today at the Tokyo Motor Show, an event featuring electric-vehicle displays by several manufacturers. Ghosn said the electric Infiniti will be "a compact luxury car -- a stylish, high-performance four-seater with zero emissions." Ghosn, who has become one of the industry's most bullish electric-vehicle proponents, is signaling that he thinks electrics will proliferate into multiple market segments. The electric market is currently dominated either by products that are glorified golf carts -- in some cases unsuitable for highway driving -- or by exotic sports cars from niche automakers such as Fisker Automotive and Tesla Motors. But Nissan is rapidly mobilizing to mass-produce its electric five-passenger Nissan Leaf starting in late 2010, with hopes for sales as high as 150,000 units a year. Two more Nissan previously said it would have two other electric products. Ghosn said today that the second model will be an electric version of the NV200, a small light commercial van that Nissan is preparing to manufacture in Canton, Miss. The third, he said, will be the four-passenger Infiniti model. Ghosn said it is too early to provide details of the Infiniti plan. Andy Palmer, Nissan senior vice president in charge of zero-emission vehicles, the Infiniti brand and global light commercial vehicles, said the NV200 decision was prompted by requests from governments and large delivery services for an electric delivery vehicle. "We have a lot of companies knocking on our door looking for electric vans," Palmer told Automotive News today. Nissan is entering the U.S. light-commercial business. The United States is the only major world market where Nissan is not already selling light commercial vehicles such as the NV200. Taxis? Palmer suggested the electric vans could be used as taxis or postal delivery vehicles. Separately, Nissan officials earlier this week indicated that Infiniti is also considering an electric concept vehicle called the Land Glider. That futuristic concept is a narrow, motorcycle-shaped car with only a driver's seat and a single back seat. Ghosn did not elaborate on whether the officially planned four-seat Infiniti electric model would be a unique platform or derived from the electric platform developed for the Nissan Leaf family car. For the past few years, Nissan has been engineering separate platforms to keep the Nissan and Infiniti brands distinct. This content has passed through fivefilters.org. |

DiMora credits Gates Chili for guiding him down the road to success. "The teachers always supported me in whatever I wanted to do," according to DiMora. "They were always very encouraging. I attribute much of my success later in life to that encouragement. I knew back then that I was going to build and manufacture my own cars. My own family thought I was crazy," he recalls, "up until the time they came to work for me!" he adds with a good-natured smile. While attending Gates Chili High School, DiMora was already tricking out his many cars, as well as those of his friends. Soon after graduation in 1975, he left for Santa Barbara, California, where within a short number of years he rose to become the owner of Clenet Coachworks, Inc., the manufacturer of the most expensive luxury automobile in the world. The company sold cars to such celebrities, dignitaries, and car enthusiasts as Sylvester Stallone, Julio Iglesias, Rod Stewart, Wayne Newton, Farrah Fawcett, and Aaron Spelling. Fortune Magazine called the Clenet the "American Rolls Royce", and it was used in such movies and television shows as "Dynasty", "Dallas", and "Dragnet". DiMora also designed and manufactured another hand-built automobile, the Sceptre, which won the "Best Car" award at the 1978 Los Angeles Auto Show. Now, as a leading U.S. luxury car designer and manufacturer of automobiles and custom motorcycles, he is building the most technologically advanced luxury car in the world, the Natalia SLS 2, introducing the 1200 HP Volcano V16 engine, with a price tag starting at $2 million.
