Dragway Results and Ball Hat Winners

Well it was a great day at the track. Bike ran flawlessly. If had been a 140lb man I would have run in the mid 11s, as most of you guessed, with no problems. I am also sure it would have broke 120mph if that same person was riding the bike. Never got to 5th gear, pretty much topped out in 4th at just over 6k rpm. We did not switch to the bike tire because we were breaking traction mostly in 2nd with the car tire pumping in about 6 lbs of boost. Switching to a 65 height tire as opposed to the 55 will help. There were a couple people that may recall that I am 6ft and 300lb. This is why I chose the 55 tire. Here are the results
1/8 mile speed 89.53
1/4 mile speed 113.42
1/4 mile time 12.42
60ft 1.964
594ft 7.710
1/8 ET 8.21
The hats were for 1/8 speed, 1/4 speed, and 1/4 time so the winners are
1/8 SPEED, not time as many put but would not have changed anything
Colin at 89.2
1/4 Speed, Dogg at 115mph
1/4 Time, Winemaker with a guess of 12.4
I would like the winners to send me an email with your addresses and I will get you hats off to you next week.

Im 6 foot and around 300 with leather. I run a 205/55/16 Yokohama. Mine got 1/8th of 7.52. You can do better.
Get some experience with the bike. Get used to it and then... take it back again.
Here is my last time slip (my time circled).. no 1/4 results though. Not a track near me
