Ponytail said:Yes, my buddy kevin is on the bike in the smoky picture on the right.
I'll leave further comments about the orange top for conversations between myself, kevin, and his crew.
Holy thrusting torque batman!Ponytail said:He ran 182mph twice, and 187mph once, all hovering around the 8 second time.
IHRA is still placing limits on him at 180 mph till he can establish a safety record. He'll be over 200 mph soon enough. The bike SHOULD be pushing 250 mph in the quarter.
Holy sh!t!! I'm sorry I missed it especially the lady in the orange.Ponytail said:He ran 182mph twice, and 187mph once, all hovering around the 8 second time.

Ponytail said:1/8 mile tracks are still fun. That's where the real race is anyway, off the line. It gets REALLY interesting watching guys trying to launch better.
LooseTooth said:This is true. I'm new to the sport, but this does seem to be the problem. One of my last runs I started in on a wheelie off the line and headed right for the wall. I'm doing well, however. The only two I have lost were when I missed a shift going into third...

That is about as fast as my 636 Ninja can get my 215lbs down the track. Actually, if I could get that launch down, I'd be doing a little better.
