i think he would have beaten me anyway..i was going to race that Viper, but the cops pulled him over and told him that if he see more cars or bikes go down that road he would arrest them..we all decided to leave at that time..

I must say, last night was a blast. A great meet with old faces fast cars and good times.

Hopefully we can keep it in that direction. No ****** minors drinking beer in the parking lot and doing donuts.


Great seeing everybody out there, and Duy, that comment about KT and weight reduction just made me laugh out loud! LOL

There were some good runs before the cops said no more.

good runs

I did good vs the 1000 but the ZX-14 or whatever it was jumped me and we held about a car away from each other till about 150.

Sucks not being able to use 2nd gear in this car..

Sucks to know that 2 of my ribs on my belt were gone when I was running that night lol.

I want to run KT.

Duy we need to run again

yeah his bike was pretty quick for being stock..i usually beat the stock 1000s..and it was pretty funny when he said "let me show you why my 1000 is quicker than the other ones"

he pointed to the S on the gas tank..i thought he was going to show me a little bottle or a turbo...

i would like to run him again, but i will not have a passenger this time..its already hard enough to beat these bikes , but having an extra 200lbs is not going to help..thats like 4000lbs..

And supposedly it runs 8.90's and Scott beat him from a dig so I'm having a hard time believing that. Scott's bike is stock except for race baffles and a filter. Best he has ran was a 9.7 at 145mph so it doesn't add up.
