Looking good Frank.

The bike ran consistent passes of 6.53-6.54 all day. The exception was the elimination pass against the slower bike when I short shifted after catching up to it early in the run. I was leaving the line slipping the clutch more than usual because I was concerned about track conditions. I lost in the 4th round due to the bike spinning in the 60'. It felt like oil on the track.

Thanks man. I'll take that as a compliment. Lol

Nice times, my best 1/8 is 6.69 , 104.xx fastest 1/8, you still da man! You got a schedule for NMB?, Bill

[dragracer]

I don't have a schedule Bill. It was a special event for memorial day weekend. They run events there from time to time. Might B something on Facebook if you do a search.

You got me on the mph. The fastest 1/8 mile was 102 although I have been 6.40's many times.

[dragracer]

Well, you have been quicker than 6.69 and I have the ticket to prove it right here. Notice how your bike start pulling harder than mine after the 1/8 mile. That's the difference in high compression with a good flowing head versus my stock valve F3 head and k pistons.
