The Acceleration Archive - Roger Phillips Collection 3


"The bike closest is Brian Chapman's 500cc Vincent Comet, blown and on nitro that bike ran 8.85 ET with a speed of 155 mph(very impressive indeed). The bike in the far lane is the blown twin engined Norton 'SuperCyclops' of Mick Butler" (Thanks Rene for the information on these rad drag bikes!)


Nice pre-unit swingarm getting ready to battle a Vincent!


Check out this lengthy pre-unit! Amazingly cool!


Purple framed pre-unit rigid with no rear fender, yikes! (all photos come from http://www.theaccelerationarchive.co.uk/roger/phillips_03.html and a huge thanks to Rene in Australia for sending me the link!!!!)
