ONEBADWS6 - one of these day's I'll get back up to US41. For some reason I liked that track a lot! Little to no tech, we raced a few GSXR 1300's, and you could get as many runs as you wanted.............

Thanks guys. No idea what I weighs yet but I know I saved a lot of weight with the FAB 9 rear, brakes, HVAC removal, manual steering, blah blah blah. I saved some weight as well when fabricating the minitubs, etc......I'll find out as soon as I head off to the track in a week or two.
