Bill, Jim,

We should try to make a few of the saturday bracket races at Atlanta Dragway this season once you fellas sort out those minor growing pains on the dyno. I will have to bring the SOHC as all my other bikes are quicker than the allowed 9.90 ET which requires an NHRA license. They run the bike program on the 1320 so it won't be hard to dial it now based on the seat time and data you guys have collected over the last 2 weekends.

Frank,dyno time next Sat.Then off to Atlanta Dragway,we'll be in touch.Sounds like you had a pretty good weekend also.Need any gears for CB750F,let me know.Sunday was FUN!!!

.It don't get no better.Samauto will be back!!!

Travis, sorry I missed you, it was a hectic 2 weeks, maybe November, at Valdosta.

Keep your eye on this thread, I'm sure Bill and Jim will keep everyone posted as to when and where they will be racing.

Dyno will definitely let you guys know whats going on with the bike. Please post results here.

I hate that my bike jumped out of gear during that round on saturday. I'm sure the dogs are rounded at this point. It jumps out about every 15-20 passes it seems. It would have been nice for both Honda's to keep making rounds. I'll tear it down soon and have it fixed in time for your next outing at ATL. Other than the Honda robbing me, i had a decent weekend on the Kaw dragbikes. I'm now 3rd in points for Top Sportsman and 5th in the 5.60 index class. We might try to get up to the next Mirock race in Maryland so i don't fall behind in the T/S class.

If you happen to have softer diaphram springs for the carbs, bring them along and try them out just for grins- just my 2 cents

Ya can tell which is the English dude frank, even his leathers are pale.

When I was taking a shower later that day, I had a very long RED V from my neck to my belly button where the sun had got through the open front of the leathers.

When I got back Wednesday morning, it was 59 degrees here in the UK, the warmest day of the year so far. Thursday was much the same but it cooled yesterday and it's now just 52 and that's indoors, typing with my hat and coat on

wish I was still there

Sam.

And people have the hide to say us chair racers are a scruffy bunch.
Looks like the drag racers can give us a run for our money.

The zimmer frame as you call it.
Will be doing battle with a host of mad Victorians for their state title on the 9th and 10th of April.
Pat, Paul and all the crew are coming along as usual.
More late night's and to many beers, I'm getting to old for this sh!t.

Oh....thanks again for the cleansing ale enjoyed it immensely.

Cheers,
Brian
