Jim, Looking like we'll be there for the festivities - 4 each & thank you for the invite!

Dean, Please keep your head & hands inside the window at all times... and have a safe trip.

Karl & Brenda, You are seriously the wild couple leaving thisafternoon from Texas.. I'll see if they'll hold tech open for you - lol.

Jimmy, Forget about having to have all the big equipment, offer a limited amount of services to get a dedicated customer base.... just perform those few services VERY well. Good luck & sorry you (along with Ali, Gary, Doug, Mike and others) aren't going to make The Maine Event this year.

Back on the road now, and far enough north that people think northern Virginia is in... "the south".

Looking forward to seeing your new bike running, tried getting your old bike there this meet but looks like it's not going to happen. And he's bringing his Harley instead.... whodda thunk it huh?

Karl, 5am on friday? You really are a driving maniac man.

we all got thru tech fine yesterday, Rickey Gason arrived at 7pm or so.

today we see what green power has to offer, both on Jims wicked sounding, MOJO Zx14, and my new serene green big inch Busa machine.

Both machines are frame up builds, last minute prepped, straight off the bench, just lil dyno time.

Today should be interesting.

It'll be the 1st time i have ridden a Busa. hmmmmmmm.... we'll see how she does.

BTW: my 12 is a home with a freshly built motor waiting for the Texas Mile in Oct.
nice to have 2 green machines, yup!

couple of questions...

do you think that the catylist tail will hurt at all in LSR?

Also, do you have any concern about running extensions with 240+ hp?

will you be my friend? lol

Jim & Jamie, you guys rock, sorry I had to eat and run, but it was great to see you guys. Next year I will book more time & do some kayaking.

I appreciate it Zack. Huge thanks to Scott Guthrie Racing for giving me the opportunity to ride one of the baddest bikes on the planet - Todd Dross, Debbie Dross & Josh Owen make it all work smoothly, helping everyone while riding themselves, and of course Scott made it all happen. Ellen & Lauren, Amanda & Jake, the list goes on, thanks to all.

The ZX10 didn't want to keep it's plenum attached with the cut down fuel tank, it worked on the dyno, but not for the duration of a Loring pass. I will fix it before Bonneville and try again. I had plenty to keep me busy with the H2 Guthrie bike, so it worked out OK.

I'm glad you had the opportunity to air one of Scotts bikes out Dean, you've proved numerous times that not only are you a great builder / fabricator but a pretty darn good rider too!!
Guthrie couldn't have picked a better person to ride his bike. Sure wish it coulda worked out on the 10 but your speed was awesome and I'm sure there's more left on the table.
