Jim Trent win super eliminator class at Man Cup
« on: June 02, 2025, 09:40:06 AM »
Jim won the super eliminator class at the Manufacturers Cup event at Alabama International Dragway this weekend on his Honda 750 dragbike. Not only did he get the W in the final round, he took the #1 qualifying spot and won the reaction time award. It was a clean sweep for Jim in his first attempt at entering the class.

Job well done.

 If you see green, you already missed it!  Awesome job.

He had the best reaction time during qualifying.  I think it was a .005 light on a pro tree.

We both were looking for you Wilbur. Sorry you couldn't make this one.

Jim showed up and showed out in S/E. The bike ran great and he rode it to perfection.
