went to Jason Miller's StreetBike Seminar yesterday.....

Ran a 6.07, 6.05, 6.03......

The bike, 2008 14, lowered, Brock alien, NO Name-baseline map, Power1 tire with 38lbs., pump gas, 40tooth rear sprocket, oem air filter, catalyst seat, foot shifting, fly's in.....stock wheel base!!!

Not bad for a 175lb. without leathers, fat guy huh...lol, as compared to the 130-150lb. jockeys out there.....

For us heavier guys, remember you need to launch at a higher RPM to pull the extra weight.....

The Clutch Technique is called " The SNAP n SLIDE " .....Learn it, Live it, Love it.....



Nice times for SWB!!

IRP now does the street legals on Wednesday. It is 20 bucks to race, you can get your license then but you need the paperwork filled out and a physical done before you can run for your license. All the info is on NHRA.com.

I am planning on running out there March 30th if the weather holds out. and i am planning on running in Muncie The 2nd of april. But thats a little further north. it would be a good haul for yourself.
