Thanks guys!!!
6 races ago I won the nights event and that put me in 1st place. Since that race I have been the points leader but only by a varying 2-4 points!!!...Last nights event was basically a 3 way race, I had 30 points, #2 rider had 28, #3 had 26...You get 1 point per round and the event goes 5 rounds...#2 guy lost in the 1st. round, I was run down by the #4 guy in the 3rd round, the #3 guy lost in the 4th round...So, I finished up the season with 33 points, # 2 with 30, # 3 with 29, # 4 with 24...
Here are the bikes each guy was Racing:
My 2002 ZX12 all OEM except for Akrapovic pipe, MR9 VP RaceFuel, Muzzy blockoffs, 16-44, slammed, Falicon BilletBasket, 57" wheelbase, no added weight, no airshifter, no tricks...
#2 Racer, a 60" NLR Turbo Hayabusa Tuned by Orient Express.
#3 Racer, a 60" Gixxer1000 with airshifter riden by an ex-Prostar 600SS Racer.
#4 Racer, a 60" BigMotor Busa with all the tricks, riden by a Prostar Promod rider.
I learned alot from these guys!!!
What really helped me be consistant was attending Jason Millers StreetBike Seminars @ MIR in Maryland...I had help from Bergie-DontBeScaredRacing.com, Norm Jackson and of course Jason Miller!!!
When I was new to DragRacing I also attended Rickey Gadsons SportBike School riding his ZX6 and ZX9, then riding my 12 getting one to one advise on how to DragRace!!!

Best time was 9.51 @ 150, hot and humid...My regular dial was 9.55, went from 9.58-9.55...When I felt fast I would dial 9.50 or 9.54...
