100mphscooter.com - The Ultimate High Performance Scooter Club.

Welcome to 100mphscooter.com
"The Ultimate High Performance Scooter Club".

The majority of Scooters have not achieved the magical
100mph, but all the same with today's tuning and today's
tuners, more scooters are actually breaking the 100mph barrier.

We want to know just how fast your Scooter really is, and include your efforts in our Speed & Records listing.

Please Register for membership and Submit your Speed. If you have any Photo's or Video let us have them also so we can add them to the site.

Whether you have managed 50mph, 70mph or 90mph, in fact whatever speed you have achieved we want to know, and we will list you and your machine, including its spec for the whole world to see just what you have achieved.

Our ambition is to assist the scooterist who's aim is to record that magical 100mph or 160.93kph, by listing events and sharing information with tuners and riders to get you there.

So far for 2012 there are 1/4 mile sprint events organised by Straightliners/ACU and 200mph.net and a number of Top Speed events including the first National Record Event being held in the UK in many years.

These events and others can be found on our Events page.

A trip to Germany to the Scooter Centre Kolne 'Max Speed Festival' is on the cards, but we are awaiting confirmation that the event is on.

For those of you who would like to take part in an event but are not sure what to do, our The Idea page will advise you on how 1/4 mile sprint event's and a top speed event's are run. Take a look, its not as difficult as you may think.

You don't have to reside in the UK to be a member of 100mphscooter.com. All you need to do is Register by completing the form at Submit Your Speed, email your timing slip (and a photo if you have one) and your information will be added to our listing.

Each time you improve your 'Top Speed' simply re-submit your details and we will update your speed and profile accordingly.

Scooter Shootout

On 02/10/2011, at Elvington Airfield, York, UK.

The riders from 100mphscooter.com (with assistance from Straightliners) held "Scooter Shootout" our first ever 100% Scooter Event.

Having more than 850 people come through the gate and 125 riders taking part in the Sprinting, Top Speed, Moto Gymkhana, Dyno Shootout and other attractions, the event was considered an overall success. Immediately after the event, discussions with Straightliners and Elvington Events were positive toward a Scooter Shootout event in 2012 and we were actually given the go ahead for a weekend event in 2012.

Due to the increased interest towards the 2012 event we were concerned that Scooter Shootout may become too big to try and relay the relevant information via the 100mph website, so the domain name scootershootout.com was purchased so the event has its own dedicated website to keep everyone up to date on 2012 and future Scooter Shootout events

A basic layout has been uploaded which you can see if you follow this Scooter Shootout link.

But while you are here, you may as well click on the images below to see the results from the 2011 event.

Your constructive criticism is welcomed to assist in us making next years event bigger and better.

The idea of 1/4 Mile Sprinting, and the procedure for Sprint Events and Top Speed Weekends EXPLAINED

A list of all events can be seen on the events page - 2012 EVENTS

Pass the 'db' noise test

A number of venues used for events are disused airfields.

Some are subjected to noise restrictions by local councils.

To continue using these venues for sprinting and top speed
events everyone needs to comply with the noise restrictions.

If we dont, we run the risk of loosing the venues.

With this in mind, I have gathered information from a number of
Dirt Bike and Moto Cross web sites and forums for advice on how to quieten 2 stroke engines for the db, or sound meter test.
