Doc set new personal best..
I got to ride a friends bike last Sunday at the PMRA world finals.
I got to ride this bike Sunday, the guy who owns this bike runs Top Gas with it. I ask him last month at the race if there was ever a chance to ride it I would love to ride it. Well I got my chance yesterday...
After a couple of mishaps with the first 2 try I got it right on the 3rd and 4th try.
1st pass 7.93 @ 170 mph.... In the 1/4 mile
2nd pass 7.86 @ 175 mph
That is a personal best and the quickest and the fastest that I have been down the track on a bike. If you look there is NO wheelie bars on the bike..
This is Angie Mcbrides old Outlaw Pro Street bike that Larry bought and put his motor in.
He is going to put a bigger motor in it over the winter and he wants me to ride it again next year to see what we can get out of it...
Was it fast?? YES was it Fun?? Hell ya!!!

Thanks Guy...
Short time was on the first pass 1.26 the owner said that was the best ever 60' that this bike has had for him. Like I said though the first 2 passes were only 330' long and then roled out of it. But the 2 full passes were 1.33 60' times. This guy was so excitied that he started talking about changing the clutch to make the 330 time better.
If you ever get the chance to ride a bike that goes that fast do it and also remeber to tighten your helmet TIGHT, I had my helmet shaking so bad at the big end that I stated to get out of it, But could see the finsh line was right there so I stayed in it...
And to the guys that run NOS, that Sh*t is awesome!! Where the hell did all the power come from... I will try and get the picture on here ASAP...

It was Angie's old bike. She sold it this past spring to Larry and he has been riding ever since. He bought the bike as a roller only ie; no motor or electronics. Of all the bikes that I have riden over the last 5 years ( this bike made #32 down the track) This bike was the most awsome ride.
A very smooth and controlable bike even when the NOS came on. Also this bike was my First NOS pass on a bike. I have riden other bikes that had NOS on them but the owners wanted to see what the bike would do on motor with me on it. So I never had the pleasure of getting to meet Mr. NOS up close and personal. Damn now I know why you guys are always talking about it... Damn that stuff is fun, I don't care who you are.. It Fun... Hahahaha
My next dilemma is do I build a Outlaw Prostreet bike ZX12 or a ZRX 1100 w/ a ZX12 motor in it or a ZX12 Prostock bracket bike??? I guess God, Money and Time will tell me. I am hoping that this ride will lead to other rides??
But only time will tell...
As I always say; I don't want to own 1000 different bike's, I just want to ride 1000 different bike's....
