NAKTC - News & Info
ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Project XTR  - Project has begun on Feb 2004 but the idea was established well before that. The XTR is about building a new NAKTC icon.  Please email at knyt@sbcglobal.net if you're interested in support. This is your chance to take part of what possibly "history in the making" by purchasing XTR T-shirt(s). I will be taking pre-orders of XTR T-shirts. All contributor's names will be engraved on a ceremonial plaque when the project will be unveiled at the 7th NAKTC meeting at Midohio in July 28, 29& 30 in 2006.
Triple DVD
NAKTC on Wheels - The home of the NAKTC is in Peoria, Illinois, but it is also on wheel on June 2004.  Everything about the club is being incorporated into a this 8.5' by 20' enclosed trailer.  Eventually, the club icon from the project XTR will be displayed in this trailer.

This year we are planning on celebrating our 7th NAKTC meeting at Mid-Ohio.  We will introduce and formally initiate other officers to the club.  We will have more structured activities -- bike show with awards, group ride, bike wash, refreshments, parts, DVD, bikes, club pins, t-shirts, clocks and other collectible items. We are even thinking about some kind of raffle. We want this event to be  very special this year and hope to make it biggest ever. Guests are always welcome to park your bikes there throughout those 3 days.  There will be a number of great triples in the corral so come by and hangout. We will also accept new members.  To celebrate our 7th meeting, project XTR will be unveiled and special events are being planned to make this a very memorable meeting.

2nd Annual Mid-Ohio 2001 NAKTC Triples Meet RECAP - Posted on Aug 24, 2001

We had a bigger turnout than last year. At one point, there were around 30 triples in our corral ranging from "mild" to "wild" as "Killswitch" described it. This time we gained another full-blown dragster, brought over by "Chainsaw." Can you imagine 3 dragsters screaming at the same time? Let's put it this way, a combined of around 450hp with 9 stingers blasting loudly and rapidly where people can hear from the far end of Mid-Ohio. We gained 9 new NAKTC members on the spot this year so I expect next year's meet will be even more exciting.

The Canadian Triples Riders joined us for the parade laps and it was an absolute joyful moment. "Killswitch" and Greg Patton laid some rubber on the track while Boilerfan and YT carried the NAKTC flag around the track to mark our presence. The members helped out with the event including cooking out and bike show which made the meet very very pleasant and enjoyable. More recap later on the link below.

1st Annual MID-OHIO NAKTC Triples Meet RECAP - Posted on 7/10/00

We made it there and back...what a BLAST! There were around 20 triples all together hanging around the NAKTC Corral. 2 notorious full-blown H2 Dragsters generated a "BIG BANG" at the meet. The rest of the triples generated endless conversation. We're all EXTREMELY GLAD to be there and got to meet half a dozen of NAKTC members for the 1st time.  There wasn't a moment all day long when we didn't chat to visitors at our corral. Lost count of how many visitors stopped by. We made a BIG SCENE and everyone was thrilled. The laps around the race track was incredible...no wheelies allowed but "killswitch" and "evel" paid no respect to the rule. If you never been to Mid-Ohio AMA Vintage days before, all I can say is you absolutely must try to make it the next time. My throat (other members, too) is very sore now from rambling away about the triples.
