I saw the rain coming and headed South- to Bradenton. There was an Outlaw heads-up race today - sick fast Pro Street, Pro Mod, and Open Outlaw cars all day long. Alongside was the standard bracket classes, with about a dozen bikes. One fueler HD testing. Unfortunately I got there at 1pm, just as the lanes were closing for TNT. But I strolled around and got some pics...
The Pro Mod pole was 6.49 @ 217mph.
God Bless Americana.
Funky Altered - hauled serious ass.
Anyway, I only got 3 passes all day, the first I ran on the motor, a 9.44 @ 145. I've never been 145 without Nutec, so I was pretty happy. It was overcast, 60, with a cross wind. Traction was good as always. I had dropped the pills down a half step, and on the first soft nitrous pass I ran an 8.99 @ 161, and it popped pretty loud at the upper shifts. Pulled hard. All the plugs looked good, so for the first round I dialed an 8.95 and set the box a little stronger, came out soft, then carried the wheel a long ways before having to notch the throttle, and ran a 9.00 @ 160, getting beat by .011. When I let off and flew by the guy, I heard bad things coming from the motor- turns out on the last shift I blew 2 header pipes off the spigots. The springs were still there, so I popped them back on and it sounded fine. Overall I'm happy, the motor ran great, and with less nitrous I'm still toting the wheel. It's hard to fairly evaluate the rake with me being rusty, and with only 3 passes, but I think I like it. Smoother on the big end for sure. But the backfiring does not make me happy. I'm gonna go down a full step on the jets, and set it a little leaner, and see if it happen again. If so I'll have to wire in the kill box.
Good to be back at the track.

Cool pics dean. I was late geting to the track.I only made 3 runs in between rain periods.Track was slicker than two eels fuckin except at the start.My first run I stood it straight up off the line,spun sideways in 2nd gear and still ran almost 138mph. There was a professional photographer who was taking pics of me on that run.he said he will send me the pics if I email him.He said he was there taking pics as they wanted to promote the track and other sporting events in the area.
