I brought a 40 tooth with me today.
I also confirmed with the KHI ZX-14R project engineer that the Roaring Toyz pre-production engine was set up for "maximum durability" and not optimized for maximum power like the final production versions... AKA, it was down on power as we suspected from the beginning.

Wow! That's impressive!
Those e.t.'s at sea level would still be mighty but the fact they were achieved at altitude is unreal.
Thanks for sharing Rickey. Much appreciated.

3000ft AD is less oxygen. Simple physics.
The fact your friends set records there is commendable.

Well if that's the case why doesn't RG just show CORRECTED times. We do it with dyno numbers all the time so why not with ET slips.
All I'm saying is Vegas is not a slow track. Not one bit ya I'm sure SAC is faster than it but it's also the quickest track in the west hell maybe even the country...

I agree vegas is not no 2-3 tenths slower, Hell my track starts at 900ft above and most race days we are 2500 to 3000 ft and I can go to the quickest track there is and I'm not going to pick up no 2 to 3 tenths no way in hell. maybe in the old days of carbs but not on these fi bikes. not saying a tenth isn't possible. But 9.25 on a stocker just lowerd is flying! hope he betters that today.

I can show a solid 1.0-1.5 tenths from any Dallas area track vs Houston and here is only 600' between the two of them. Vegas has to be more off then that. You guys should look at it this way, on swb, the thinner air may be helping him get out of the hole harder. I bet wee wouldn't have minded that a few days ago

The busa guys are calling all the bikes in Vegas ringers and Brock and Ricky are full of shit , just like they did with the 2006 zx14 .. As these bikes start hitting the tracks they will find out the truth real quick .. Sounds like a bunch of sour grapes to me ..

You guys must have magic air then in texas. We can go from 3000 ft to 1200 feet and we see a .10 are you retuning to see that much. we gain nothing in 600 foot difference.
