I to would like to extend a hearty well done to the corps,happy birthday.
  Just think of the things the corps could have achieve had they taught their personnel to read.

I'm kind of disappointed to hear there is so much politics vintage racing. It should be about fun, rules are rules but I also understand about traveling great distances.
 I'm kind of baffled why it is so serious, it's just a bunch of old guys riding junk. I also see a lot of nastiness in today's racing,
when I raced in the early 70's you used to stop and help the guy up the up hill and he would do the same for you.
 I think the vintage world could learn from Australia, you show up and ride, no points, no BS, just having fun. Too many rules will kill the sport.

I have gas running out through the vent in the bottom of the carb float bowl vent. I only get gas out of the side vent by the tickeler
when I hold me finger over the vent in the bottom of the float bowl.
Any ideas?

I just picked up a Mint 400 and would like to know where should the fuel be dribbling from when I tickle the carb? From around tickler like an AMAL, out the vent on the side of the bing or out the bottom of the float bowl through vent pipe in the float bowl?

Thanks.
