Thanks for the kudos, guys.
We went out in the first round with a bog at the line. But we're pleased with the first time out!

Thats a bad MF. I saw it make that 6.83@196! It has some problems still but I'm sure muzzy will get them sorted.The busa boys weren't liking ZX-12's much after sat. Pro-mod, fastest qualifying time (ZX-12)same in SBS,Superbike ZX-12 ,were all the fastest!Mad mike was still in street ET when I left at just after 5pm. Racing was rain delayed several times .They called all the pro riders to the tower I assumed to call the race? We had a long ride back from atlanta and I have to work tomorrow.
Robers Supernaught lost $10,000 in a street race.So I was told.

Rob Supernaught? The legend "in his own mind" lost! I bet if you ask him its a first time for everything. Really, I remember one of the guys saying he's a cool guy. Just talks shit in the nature of competition. I would like to see him race though, intresting if he can back it up

The Pro Mod bike and Ryan are an awesome team, first 6 second pass in his career. The 'Busa boys were a tad upset at Muzzys new project. makes me proud.
Good to see Bear, Dean, Mad Mike, Vincent, Roger, Horsepower Mike and Harry again.
Got to see Robert lose the race on Friday, almost worth the trip just for that!
Chad had a good week-end, qualified #3 in the 600 class with a 9.96 and ran a 9.87 and 9.88 in his two rounds of eliminations. Will be continued next month.
He got put out by Mad Mike in street E.T. in the second round, but did get some more seat time and that's what he needs.
If the rain would have held out that would have been great, oh yeah.....Chad's picture was on the back of the Gainesville event t-shirt, so we got to buy some of those.
They looked cool.

Doug, "WHere" were you?? I did not see you?? BTW, Anyone notice the "New" Paint Job on Muzzys Transporter? Me personally, the other paint Scheme was the Best one and the New One looks Common! Of course I spoke to him about it and he was good natured and Diplomatic also, to sum it up, it is what Kawasaki Wanted and that is That!

OK MM, I still do not like the red stripes, but no one and I mean No one can miss your bike anywhere! Sort of like great commercials that we all like, but cannot remember what they were selling. In your case, we all know, and the only thing missing when I see your bike is Joe Gibbs!

I was HERE. Lots to do, and I didn't need to be THERE! But Thanks for asking.
The truck paint is in keeping with the Kawasaki company wide design since the truck is for the Kawasaki sponsored Pro-Stock bike.

Good luck in Houston Doug, I for one will be close to my Powerbook waiting for round reports.
I took 64mb worth of pics at Atlanta, and of course I now have a format error and may not be able to retrieve them. A dozen or so are of the Pro Mod.

I understand about the paint scheme, but someone at Kawasaki with a Brain should have said, It is a Beautiful paint Job and it makes us look good! let alone the money saved that could have gone into the Bike ! I know that makes too much sense, but Muzzy did have the best looking transporter of all the Teams. They fixed it so he is just one of the "Group"!
