Went to a little outlaw 1/8 mile track on Saturday to make a couple of test passes. First hit was a little hot, lol. Track photographer got some pics of it, so I figured I'd share.
No damage at all. Short shifted and pedaled it, got back in the throttle, and nothing hit the ground but the front tires. Let off early and still went 5.95 at 108 mph.
For my 2nd pass I toned it down a lot, and ended up running a new best.
Only goal was to get a couple of passes to read plugs. My dad and good friend went w/ me, so it was a good day.
Next track day will be more suspension tuning, lol.

He might be 310lbs, but he isn't short either.

Tony...thanks! I can't slide the seat forward, it had to be all the way back. I'm 6'5" so I don't have a lot of room in there, lol. It ran REALLY well considering what I had in it.
I'm excited to see how it'll run once I get the suspension sorted out.

Don...thanks bud, lol.
Thanks JACK1440!

What was your best et for that day? I'm thinking he's keeping that info on the down low for now to fly below the radar in his circles?
