Picked me up a win yesterday!
Went to a two wheelspeed race yesterday and ran in the 10.50 class. picked up the win on the new 2012. Bike is still bone stock. time trail I short shifted at 9800 every gear and I knew I was going faster then 10.50 so I rolled out of it at the 1000 foot and it went 10.31. 1000 foot time tells me it was on about a 10.17 pass. next pass shifted at 9200 every gear and went 10.56 and was number 5 qualifier. this class is ran on a .400 pro tree. had a couple .020 lights and a .40 and a a few in the .80's

This time F 2 mode and short shifting, 60 foots where 1.86 to 1.88 and then could have still went a 10. teen if I shifted at redline. air was 3600 feet as well temp was 94. trust me a nine second pass stock will not be hard for me.

No I went 180 miles one way to race and I was in 10.50 mode from the first pass. Our bet was a 9 off the trailer when I go out and try to go fast for the first time

Bently did just what he told me he we going to do .. With the T/C and power modes run the bike in index racing .. Runnig it in T/C 2 mode and short shifting put him in the money .. In T/C 2 he doesn't have to worry about spinning , popping a wheely ... Just cut a lite and take a ride to the win line .. No strap, no lowering , no nothing .. He doesn't even need a pipe a P/C .. Win win in my book ..

I'm new here so will probably be flamed for this but I read your link. It says vehicles equiped from the factory can use them. It also says devices that apply the brakes are banned, the 14r TC does not apply the brakes.
