She's a little tired at this point. I'll be busy in the off season freshening it up. Time to replace those stock Honda valves with a new set of stainless steel valves and hopefully some massaging to the ports.

Jerry, I really wasn't 100% myself at this race. I'm sure I could have lowered the record more if I felt up to making all 3 of the qualifying passes. Stay tuned for next season and I'll assure you lower numbers will pop up on the board.

Mike,

I've got 4 engines to work on before I get to this one. Considering all of the tasks ahead of me, including finishing the nitrous- mono shock F model project bike, I'm hoping to finish old faithful before the first Cup race next season. The bike has made several 10.3x passes already. My goal is to consistently put those numbers on the scoreboard with this bike in 2018.

A little birdy told me that our friend Bill is coming out with a BIG gun in 2018. I just need to stay slightly ahead of his deep pockets. Lol
