Personal Best

Very impressed with todays results. I ran MR9 and the track temp was over 100 degrees with about 70% humidity. No excuses but track prep is poor in Orlando so my 1/8 mile times are weak. Can't wait until it cools off. 8.60's here I come!!!!!!!

So you figure you were spinning the tire on that 5.69?
Are you 135-140 suited, or unsuited? I forget.
Nice Job!! Wait for the cool weather!

I weigh that unsuited. I know it sounds like a load but they don't use VHT at this track at all. All the 7.90 bikes run like 8.20's here at this track. I am going to Smokins track on Sunday if this cold front comes through. The track Smokin runs on is KILLER! Thanks Shane

Well done ... 8.81 in the heat is killer ...The mr9 really gives you a great bump in power even in the bad air .. I wish we could still get the old u4 because it comes pretty close to the mr9 but a lot cheaper ..

Yes, that seems about right. I would figure that by the time it shifts its about 10.9. I think that I told you before but I have to thumb shift first gear or the autoshifter messes up. At good tracks it works just fine.

Thanks Dusty, see ya in Valdosta. I met a guy today that runs SEMDRA, he's got a ZRX and runs the 6.50 class I think. Its funny he mentioned that he was buddys with the owner of Star Racing. He mentioned some guy name Mike something that is the #1 qualifier in that class next weekend.

I think Chad would have to pull a few inches of wheelbase off to make it a fair comparison.

In semdra there's a 6.0 class and a 6.60 class. He might say he's #1 qualifier, but a guy name stanley russel on a old gsxr1000 is #1 qualifier with a 6.601 I saw the pass.
I had bad news broke to me friday, I have to go to work tuesday and will be gone for a week, so no semdra for me. I got to give up 6th place in set out of at least 110 in the class.
I don't know the owner of star, just the 2 doug's. They are good guys to work with.
Make sure to bring all your bags of tricks with ya where you can teach me a thing or two!

Damn!!!!!! You were 6th out of that many? Nice job man. I can't remember the guys name but now that I think about it he runs the 6.0 class. He was telling me he ran a 5.99 which knocked him back to 13th or so. Honestly no bullshit I am coming to that race in Nov.

Check out www.semdra.org and it was street et. I run the 6.0 class too. Last race got rained out (that's why they are having 2 this weekend) and I qualified with like a 6.05 (I think) and qualified 13th out of 30. That's a TIGHT field.
NO bullshit I need a few pointers! How many people you bringing with ya?
