This is at our "local" track. Local being 130 miles away, there aren't any nearer. You can see why we don't strap it too hard. This is my dad, Keith, riding - he owns the bike. I hold the outright course record on it at 9.67. The track won't take any more - it's still spinning at the top end.

My Bad (on the clutch)...
The adjusters (on my JMC ZRX ) swingarm doesn't have RollPins...
I DID however...have a problem with my ChainSide Adjuster Block "tilting" forward because the adjuster is BELLOW the axle...
No matter how tight I tighen the axle...with 130 (PumpGas LowBoost) to 152+FtLbs of torq...the chain loosened as the AdjusterBlock twists/tilts in the arm...
I made a 4inch (150+mm) long Adj.Block and don't have that problem anymore...


ENTROPY
WAYtoDamnedLONG!?!?!?
Been working my butt off here at SM2W and just got a C-a-week RAISE to show for it!!!

I broke my turbo (blew the bearings OUT of it)
learing to "control the boost" which is NOT easy on this type of turbo...Quite literaly "lost control of boost" on a dyno pull after being up ALL NIGHT trying diff. ways to LOWER the boost for launching/1st-2nd-Gear...ComPLETELY my fault...I was tired...
Cost me as much to repair as a NEW conventional turbo would have cost but...I would have also had to redo the exhaust, waist gate (AeroCharger has no WaistGate), and charge tube and OILING (self contained on this turbo)...
I REALY like how this turbo BOOOSTs so QUICKLY also
It will start going Pos. @ 2,000rpm
Has 100+torq from 4,400 all the way to the Limiter...with it's max (listed above) at 6,500...what's VERY COOOL is...it has 148+Lbs from 6K to 7,600 LOL...
At 4" over WB and Stock (17/42) gearing...I have done MANY PowerWheelies in 2nd-gear-through-4th-gear (140+mph)...funFunFUN!!!

OhYa...it makes 190+HP at 9PSI on PumpGas and 230+ (150+ from 5.5K up) at 14psi with -4* and C-12Fuel...
Absolutely LOVE this bike...
Catch up on some bills and then I'll store/post some pictures...
(like ThreadTitle implies)LOL...

I got 196hp on the dyno. I was hoping for a little over 200hp but it didn't happen.

If I can only get my 1320 to run numbers like T- rex I might give JC a good run on the 16th.

1270. Made 179hp on Ryan Schnitz dyno two years ago. Other racers claim his dyno reads about 10% lower than other dynos. Its a TURD for sure My best et 9.24 followed by a 9.26 but usually in the 30 and 40's. Hell i'm just the wrench for zx12 girl. She's the jockey The 12 will be going under the knife this winter for a check up. Been 2 years since the kit was installed and most of it been at the dragstrip zx12 girl is hard on equipment

Yup,

bremertonraceways.com
portlandraceway.com
woodburndragstrip.com

If you know you're coming, get on our northwestdragbike.com forum too. Your 8.99 will put you 3rd on the NW quick streetbike list ('course I just extended my 12 and will be close to that in the next couple weeks...maybe).
