Nightmare wins the 68in hand clutch shootout in Montgomery
Here were the rules. The bike could not be longer than 68inches, and it had to have a hand clutch with a street tire. Anything else goes. The clutch did not have to be stock so gann clutches, hayes,lock-ups and all were in this class. I was running the MTC multi stage lock-up. Jarhead was in this class as well. I think there were 12 bikes in this field but once it was all said and done, I ended up coming out on top on my 14. It was nice to see a Kaw in the winner circle. especially probably the only stock motor bike in the class but the nitrous helped.

I forgot to mention, JARHEAD was in the class too. Drove all the way from Indiana and he was 64 inches and very competitive. Had he had the extra 4 inches, there probably would have been a different 14 in the winner circle. Great Job JARHEAD.

He is a little guy 120 to 130 pounds ... If he does have an after market shock it's not going to be what you need at 225 ...

I have the stock shock on my 14. I am only 117lbs now so i really do not have any problems. There is another 14 I ride but the owner is close to 300lbs so I will ask him for you and let you know! It works with me but is kind of stiff.

Montgomery is 1/4 but they only ran the 1/8 mile for the shootout. As far as competitive, you needed to be running at least some 60s. I was way over powered but .004 lights were making it happen. Just for a little comic relief, I had a foot race in the staging lanes while waiting on the track to be prepped and I won! I wrote zx14 on the side of my shoes! LOL

You made us proud, in a sea of Busa's the 14's really stuck out especially since we were out front most of the time. I qualified number three with a 5.63 @130. The bike really likes the air down there. Nightmare was riding the snot out of his bike, one of the best riders in the pack. Congratulations, it was a well deserved win!

130 in the 1/8 is moving :-) I wonder what your 14 would run with a slick and wheelie bar??

WOW you qualified number 3! That's amazing on that short bike. I think I was like number 8 or something with a 5.71 but I got faster. I was pretty much killing them on the tree so that paid. .004 to .010 lights all night!
