All out drag bike
What is done to make an all out drag bike,
The type that have trouble with the road course?
Why is that?
Loose tolerances in the bearings.
Extremely high compression.
special wheel bearings.
Dry blocks, or no raditor?
Any or all the above and what else???????????
I always hear, someone could not make the road course,
and wondered WHY?

Main reason is...they have 2" of ground clearance!!!
VERY High compression would be another reason (if the motor is built that way...

Every since i fried a clutch at the track.
I trailer my stock motored zx12 dragbike to T&T.
The chairs and cooler really helps too.
The question is WHY do they have to be trailered to the strip?

Well when you travel 12-20 hours to race on saturday and you leave Friday, it is a little hard not to trailer it.....
