atco race
I was there fri and sat and there were a lot of streetbikes mostly busas.I was disappointed that the streetbike shootout guys ran only eight mile.Did you go over to the dirt bike track?I think Rickey Gadson ran 5.20's in the eight mile.

onefast,
I didn't get a chance to go over to the dirt bike track but I will next time I'm there. I have a Husky 610 also so maybe I will check it out.
Let me know when you'll be there and I will come watch it only an hour from my house.

I was there Friday night I had my red 12 parked by the stands, it seems like every other bike was a busa, I seen a couple of gsxr 1000 run in the 9.3 to 9.4 range, Robert has a very fast Busa but the Velocity Busa was really moving.

We were there for the week-end, my son made it to the semi-finals in the 600 Supersport class. his best for the finals was a 9.92.
It was a shame for the "fast" bikes to be limited to the 1/8th but the track was so bumpy and with guardrails the whole distance it's not a place to be going 240mph!
Jim Carroll ran a 'smokin 5 flat which probably would have been in the 7.80's for the quarter...one quick 12.
