I thought it was the weight we were guessing at Scott, if we did have a bet on the ET, the commpetition is not over until I run the time I said. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Sorta glad we are all smiling again. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Readout on dial-in board shipped to Bill (12.28) before the bike ever ran. 12.36 best in mid 60's weather. Cooler weather coming. I don't think that I was too far off... ;)

My opinion is this..........The bike is not going to get much better other than
a minor jet change here and there for the Engine.
It ran very crisp and sounded even better as I was watching bill going down the track
just need to work on getting seat time to get Bill more consistent (Right Bill?)

The cool nights and low humidity is a racers dream and the guys last night got out the big jets

Good job to all .....................:)

Jim

I just put the welder down but know its time to go back to work

Cool Jimmy, if it needs good air, I've got just the thing.
Weather station arrived today, I thought it was faulty like the last one but I just found out I was reading it wrong :-[ It went all the way back to Sweden for nothing ;D ;D ;D
Will get it in the post to you first thing Monday after all the old people have picked up their pensions, allways have to wait ages on Monday morning. >:(

Sam (off to bed soon, hurry up with the rest of the news.) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Sam,yeh I forgot,you need your"beauty sleep"! ;)
Big FUN last night. ;D
1st run R/T .014,60FT 2.413(it bogged once)1/8 8.573,MPH 92.30,1/4 12.880 @ 112.31
2nd run R/T .129 (asleep,opponent .295 alive?)60FT 2.324(bogged just a hair)1/8 8.443,MPH 92.81,1/4 12.742 @ 112.53
3rd run R/T -080 >:( 60FT 2.055,1/8 8.089,MPH 93.35,1/4 12.364 @ 113.21( Oil seems to like warmer temps)
4th run R/T .088 60FT 2.253,1/8,8.306,MPH 94.13,1/4 12.538 @ 114.61
Yes,Jim we gotta work on that rider(young whippersnapper)I'm blaming him! ;) ;D
We are now going to fine tune some things,install better position pegs(see Jim,what cramp?)
Install Autometer tach 5 inch,0-11,000 rpms.
Fix idle stop,opens 1&2,before 3&4 catch up,hitting on linkage,just not where we need it!
But Big Drum Roll,rode it over to neighbor's and on way back did a stall speed test...what's that? a TACH needle trying to move,not 3,100 but 3050,trying real hard to be seen! Way cool,we'll know for sure with new tach.
Ceramic bearings..after Valdosta,for next year. Weather station will help,Thanks,Bill

Found it. Looks like H2Eric was the closest, with a guess of 12.34, while my guess was 12.412. :(  ;)

I'm Looking forward myself Frank 8) I'm as ready as I can be and I'm sure the guys will be able to put the finishing touches to the bike for then. It will be good to get away from the bad weather that we are having, summer seems to get shorter every year, I really wish I could spend the winter over there.
Did you get your weather station yet? I posted the one I got to Billy yesterday, it's a cute little thing. 8)
