So to sum this all up.
The bike is dead consistent if I do my job.
I need to try this setup with U4 instead of 87 pump gas.
BTW at our track we were running for the Wally tonight. I made to the last 3 bikes in Street Bike and went red.
As always had fun. I am determined to get this bike with the Tsukigi, at stock wheelbase into the low 9.30's or maybe even the twenties at my size (200lbs suited). I need to have consistent 1.56 or better 60fts and lower my 330's to low 4.0's or 3.9's
I believe that I could pick up some on the back half of the track as well. I may have to get a custom map to my fuel of choice.
I'll add some pics tomorrow.

Thanks Hoot
btw does your friend want the pipes?
Thanks Smokin I'll shoot him a PM. What kind of times is running during the summer months?
BlackMagic, yes these times are with the Tsukigi exhaust.
Back in the spring when the air was great I went a 9.53 with stk pipes.
When the hot summer came it was 9.7's with stk pipes.

Blue Mule I will be there definitely in Sept/Oct. I should be really flying by then.
We have been doing too much racing this way for now.
But we like to come to KCIR towards the end of the year.
I should have come for the Soul Brothers Race
I was going to come for the round up but changed my mind.
Wow (Listen at all those shoulda, coulda, woulda) I let you know when.
