Post by: AllAzusacroozer on July 12, 2012, 05:59 PM: I think they were owned and run by Karl and Lisa Moult's dad who owned the GT Signs company. Based Nottingham way i believe. Karl was a front runner in his age group (born 1974 ish i guess) in NBMXA.

Post by: JJR on July 15, 2012, 04:42 PM: I've a Thruster / Gee - Tee racing jersey that I got in 1988 at the Fiac Worlds in Belgium.
I'm long time wondering... did Thruster still make frames in 1988?

It all went south before then.
It's not worth a dime.
Might as well send it to Andy, just for old times sake!

Yeap, Karls dad was the Tee bit in GEE TEE Signs, he lived up the road from me and before the Thruster deal came along GEE-TEE sponsered the Nottingham Outlaws team I was on, Terry is nolonger anything to do with GEE-TEE Signs so doubt anyone there has a clue about their BMX racing history. ;)
