I think it runs South East and there has always been a nice frontal and/or right to left wind as you making your pass. Best times for least amount of wind have seem to been in the mornings.

If the conditions are right I would think Karl, Ryan, and Buddy will all have 200+ mph runs.

It'll be fun to see who will have the title of the Fastest ZX-12 at The Texas Mile. Right now its only at 195 and change by some fat idiot who does not know how to ride!


You forgot to add Gary to that list.

Gary, you are correct-o

I just did a lil googling and found that the "track" is oriented 100/280;
passes are made from WNW to ESE ..


If the Accuweather forecast is right, it means we'll have a nice tail wind on Sat:

"Saturday, Oct 28, Sunny. Winds from the NW at 11 mph"



and a quartering head wind (right to left, as Gary says) on Sun:

"Sunday, Oct 29: Mostly sunny and delightful. Winds from the SSE at 10 mph"




Nice. I can't wait!! Trailer is all loaded and hooked to the truck. It is about a 1300 mile drive. UGH! Not looking forward to that but I am looking forward to seeing everyone again.

85F and rainy today in Austin, Suppose to clear out and be 80F and Sunny for the weekend.

That was Austin News what do the real weather people have to say? Is it still as above. I like that wind action on Sunday!!!!!!

I'll probably pick up my bike this evening, I hope it will not be raining as I hate cleaning it afterwards. If Bros. bike is running good we will pack our stuff and load trailer on Friday. Leave Austin at 5:30AM Sat. and hope to be in by 8:30AM. I hope that the Mile people will start the event on time so the N/A guys can take advantage of the cooler air.
