It's back....almost! new Dyna 3 ohm coils, NGK racing wires, RS34'S,  Pingel filter, Motion Pro 1/4 turn throttle and cables, charging system all gone, regulator and rectifier were still on. New Dyna shift light and minder all wired up.Swapped seats with Medyo, gotta cut it down in the front, that's about it for now, it'll be at Valdosta also. Bill Still gotta tape up a couple inches of wire harness.

Bike should run really well now. Glad you had time to work on it BEFORE the race. Now you can sit back and relax enough to concentrate on your race game. Time to make rounds.

TEAM 750: Space your self out so you guys meet in the final 4.......... Take those fast bikes down early = they have to wait and think and YOU BE GONE PASS THE 60' WITH THEIR VISION saying do-not red light ...... time trials ok but in eliminations not good with a SOHC750 taking out a TEAM RACER.

TEAM 750: Space your self out so you guys meet in the final 4..........

Easier said than done. At Rockingham they started drawing playing cards, even in the first round, and matched riders by paired cards. Frank and I ended up paired in both 1st and 2nd round! This may not be done in the early rounds at Valdosta, depending on the number of riders entered. If there are too many entrants they may likely just leave early pairings to the riders as has been done in the past. Just no jumping line once you are lined up...

WIBURE: If they line up race, space out in the same line = draw cards all 750 draw last cards ....... what odds would the final 4 cards be pairs ???. How do they get bye for 1st or 2nd rounds ? Best reaction time ?

If I didn't have to help the wife in pro ET, I'd line up at the rear of the pack to avoid the same problem with running each we had at the rock. Then again, with the number of bikes projected to participate, I should have time to get back to the lanes when she runs.
