Yes, we're still planning to make that trip. Umm, will you guys consider parking parallel, instead of perpindicular to the lines this time so we can all fit in the same area???

Lol. One non conforming racer made 5 rule abiding racers park away from the same spots they've been using for 3 years now, hmm.  And we didn't even complain to you. Now that should let you know how friendly we all are towards a new racer and how much we all like you.  Now whats that saying you people like to use: there goes the neighborhood. Hahaha!!! Sorry Bill, i just couldn't resist that -turnabout is fair play among friends.

HEy, we've got another points race at Orangeburg Dragstrip this saturday. It would be great if you came down to race with us.

HONDAMATIC RACERS : Do you have ceramic wheel bearings in both front and back wheels ?  I know they cost a lot but the gain is great.  My son got me high speed wheel bearings from a GERMAN MFG. CO  [ non-ceramic ] supplier he deals with in his business in California and my little turtlematic  rolls around very - very easy now a days = best ET in 5 years.  Wheels spins OVER very easy from the stock bearings that were cheap standard factory installed. We used WORLD WIDE CERAMIC bearing in the wheels and motors of all the BUSA'S and the PRO/STOCK bike we race over the past years.

Around 78 dollars per wheel bearing, the last time I checked. Yes it definitely helps. Stock in some racing rims. Also helps in motors, especially transmissions. I'm not rich enough to use them yet. It's on my to do list for the next time I have my motor torn down and I have an extra $5-600 available. All the big horsepower setups use them. Standard on Pro Stock bikes for over 10 years. Just put them on your front rim, jack it in the air, and spin the tire by hand. Compare it to stock bearing wheel. The amount of time that wheel spins is far longer with the ceramic bearings. The only bad thing you can do with them is to apply a bad preload. Reduced friction gives more horsepower for going forward. What I plan to do when I get serious... ;)
