Cam, haha, now that's a story until itself. It was running a RC 295 Dynoman cam at the end with 915, Stage IV head. 12.05 best ET,he backed off to not breakout, 1.912 best 60ft. Ran 7's in 1/8. 116.xx was best mph, but I got 119.xx at the end!
Scary as we never found out why Sam went down!

and it's no good asking me.

At IDBA races I watched CHAD make many passes and never seen him wheelie much, but he got many win tickets = their is a reason I called him BIG KID w/a smile as he was 200+ pounds. One of the best PRO RACERS that gave " GOT BRUCE " BIKES A RUN FOR THE MONEY had his clutch lever hooked to a air cylinder on his rear foot brake lever so when he pulled in his clutch this held the brake down and locked, turned on and off with a toggle switch before and after launch, he had a lock up in that GS motor. Never seen him red light.... no KREEPING on two step.
TURBOD , when Muncie opens for a test and tune I will drive over for A DASH FOR CASH , gone are those Tim Mills days, packed house good food.

Sam's 836 ran 12.31 best. I don't think that RC had the CV carb choices that we're using.

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #287 on:** March 24, 2016, 10:00:04 PM »

Wasn't it a 836 when I took it to the finals in 2012 or 13 at Commerce? We ran 12.25, 26, 27 and 24 that night! , Maybe a 12.28.Maybe it was already a 915? Sometimers done got me! Yes, but he had Byron Hines, lol! And more cc's!

It was 2012 Billy, I rode in the same event in 2013, it would have been an 836.

Yes Sam, I thought it was 2012. Dennis, these are for you and Jon! Lol. A logbook! ,12.26 dial to go to finals, ran a 12.262! Yeh, an automatic can be deadly! Look ,12.18 the best when it was 836cc, 1.9's 60 ft. We going to be dem pesky automatic's again! K, Bill

It might be an idea to check with Man Cup to see if they still let autos in street ET, I saw something that said it has to be hand opperated.

Frank - Sam and I have been through this. Clutch guys use a line lock to hold bike on starting line with a dragging clutch. Sam asked the powers that be. Yes, line locks on rear brakes are legal in Street ET. It's considered a safety item. I don't assume, I ask. Hondamatics use the line lock on the starting line to prevent creeping forward, just like clutch bikes. I just leave harder when the line lock is released... I welcome protests. Educating fellow racers doesn't take long so long as the officials are doing the talking. Chain guard - check, lights - check, tires with tread - check, no two step - pull the tank - check, fuel shutoff - check. Protests won't take 5 minutes.
Hondamatics don't have to just race in Street ET.
Automatics are not clutch bikes. The setups are very different. Give a guy who has been racing them since 1985 a little credit on knowing a little about racing them. That's why I say that it will take a Hondamatic to win the SOHC purse for Street ET.

.....

Not sure that answers the question. I saw the same thing in the 2016 Rules. Something about has to be able to kill engine with clutch release.
Billy needs to check with ManCup as they were making more rule changes last week regarding the new 1st round stuff.
