Street Legal Drags, Fontana... Took My CBR600!

This was kind of a 'bucket list'-type thing for me. The CBR600 is not a drag bike by any means, but I still wanted to give it a try.
I went 12.35 @ 117 on my first and only pass EVER on a motorcycle. Not sure if I'll race it again or not, but at least I can say that I've done it!
The track was SUPER crowded (hadn't seen it like this in years). Got to the track at 9am, didn't get a run in until noon, and then I had to leave. The last time I went, I showed up at 8:30 AM and got 4-5 runs in by noon! Not sure why there were so many people there...

Yeah, getting a sportbike to 60' is quite a task. Thats why whenever some people say they beat a sportbike off a red light, I really don't hold any merit to it.
Average rider launching a 600cc sportbike off a stoplight = about 13.5@110.
Not a bad first run though for you. Good job!
