This weekend the locals had a good times street drags, there track is only 1/16 mi (330 ft), there were only three bikes there but any time you get to race legally is always fun, I thought I'd share a couple of pics from the weekend, if anyone els has some pics of them racing go ahead and post them,

When you run the 1/16th you shift into second right before the finish line, my best time was a 4.76 at 85mph, I think I could have went faster but running E.T.'s I was trying to stay consistant,

I think you should shut your sheild. LOL Most tracks will not let you leave the line if your sheild is not shut. Sweet Pic give me a little bit and I will post my wheel up in second gear pic from last weeks 1/4 mile fun. Wheel up in second with the bike lowered was wicked ass fun. Jeff

Here is one of them. My bike was lowered and it still loved to left in second gear. Probley had to do with the fact I used my clutch to shift gears. Here are a few others too.

Nice pics Jeff, I knew I would catch $#it for my visor being open but while I was in the stageing lane it tried raining a little and when I started to line up I fliped the visor closed and had little dropplets all over it then when I tried whippeing it off they just left big streaks so I just left it open that run,
