Great weekend racing wise for me. The weather sucked, it was cold, 49*F, but the bike loved it!!

9.359 @ 138.03 mph. I have gone 144 mph, but the cross wind was too strong. In fact, after just one time trial, they shortend the race to 1/8 mile.

My previous best was 9.40.

Congratulations Gary! (It's the purple clutch cover that did it.)

Nice improvement, I look for 0.5 sec over 100 secs, you got 0.05 over just 9 :)

Congrats!
Just read a hot tip somewhere that throwing some nitro propane in with the race gas is worth a 1/10 or 2 :shock:
