It looks heavy Billy, and it has no bling on it, hahahaha. Good luck mate.

Oh, and you need one of these from JT Norton. haha.

Even Dave Schnitz has bought a couple, haha.

Glad to see you decided to get an extra bike ready. That's a clean F3

I'm in agreement with Iconic there Billy. It's not gonna go fast ENOUGH until you bling it out

Now, is there a primary bike ready?

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #54 on:** October 28, 2017, 01:03:29 PM »

It's next. My .040 MLS 73mm headgasket arrived last night! We going be ready as long as I stays....healthy. Had a in house Dr visit Thursday...was cool. Little girl knew her stuff. So I gotta get my bruit ( pronounced brew ee) checked. It's the turbulent flow of blood in the artery, first sign of some blockage etc. Gotta get ultra sound next I guess. It's the carotid artery, delivers oxygen to the brain! Now that explains a lot! Lol. But I have to get it checked. Took one look at my shoulder injury, said it would need surgery to fix! Nice, But I plan on racing Super E and Street ET. Getting older can be challenging, beats the alternative though! Stay tuned, Bill

Good job getting that tranny in so quick Bill. Its always gives me peace of mind to have a back up bike.

Its not looking promising on my new bike making its debut at the finals. I'm shooting for the race in December in Bradenton at this point. A few things I was hoping would fall into place haven't happened so far. Its thrown my entire schedule off so I've decided to not rush to screw up. I'm planning to build this thing once and only once, with the exception of an occasional freshen up.

I'm going racing at Rockingham this weekend to get some seat time on the Honda and again the following weekend at Carolina Dragway. Hopefully I can make rounds at the finals. This has not been my best year so i'll be lucky to finish in the top 30.

It could be worse Frankie, at least you'll be inside the top 67.

There's a picture to hang above my shaving mirror, Sam!

You are looking really good these days

Sam Green Racing · « **Reply #70 on:** October 31, 2017, 10:40:25 AM »

They sent me those in early 2015 Cal, the picture was taken a little after that.

That was Sam's age then

Sammy, you're always lookin good.

Just like a 750 engine....lol. Waiting on clutch plates

I love the way that clutch pack works though. Sourcing the special plates is a tough chore. We just need to come up with a viable alternative from now on.

Bill, Please do me one favor before you install the entire new clutch pack- could you measure the stack height for me sir?? I think if we mix and match known and readily available OEM steels and fibers, we can make up a similar set up that would grab just as well.

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #74 on:** October 31, 2017, 04:01:39 PM »

Sure thing shorty! Lol. Progress the B plate number the other day was the metal one. The B friction also not available but I have sources......
