Default Funny Track Story!

Me and a couple of buddies were down in Montgomery at the strip and this yellow four wheeler came up to the staging lights. He ran a 12.91@128mph. Is that not crazy or what, I dont think I could ever feel any kinda safe on a four wheeler going 128mph

I saw that too. Earlier on in the staging lanes, he was trying to get me to race him for money. I don't race for money anyway, but I'm not that stupid. The power/weight ratio on that thing is sick.

Later on that night, he ran a 12.78. Don't know the MPH, 'cause he was in the right lane, and the sensor was screwy. It read like, 48, and I know that's not right.

Yeah, it had "600cc" written really small in vinyl on the side, and I think I overheard him tell one of the local sportbike guys that it had a Jixxer engine in it. Can't recall what model ATV it was though. Looked like the chassis had some work done to it.
