Also went back and looked at the history for the 6th... 2 weeks ago we had a constant head wind of 5 to 10 MPH.. gust perhaps a bit more. Today was basically no wind or slight tail wind! Which is very unusual... in fact I even noticed the East wind today..

My Camaro 5 Shirt doubles for hunting season. And since it is hunting season and I was in the middle of the "CORN FIELD" I thought it was appropriate.

We got shoved to the front as soon as the track was cleared(the motorcycles got shoved to the side). We lined up and he cut a .93 reaction time to my .06. I was in front all the way through the 1/8th mile at which point he powered past. Damnit. 13.96, a good run, but I really wanted to stay in front of him.

It was our last open track day until February. You guys up north with your 40* weather have it better than you know. It was good to meet BaylorAF tonight. The black/white looks sharp.
Nice run you are making it interesting around here.And it will get better once you get the bottle on.

All reigns come to an end. I expect mine will too by next Friday. Good luck to all of you who are going to the BF event.

That run was with traction control on. I tried runs with it on and runs with it off. Seemed like it was better with it on. Right lane at Lapeer is defiantly the faster of the two. I made sure most of my runs were done in that lane.

When heating up the tires, I noticed this was one of the few runs both tires were spinning and I did do a lengthy warm-up.

Barely got the RPM's up and then just hammered it like there was no tomorrow.

Your Welcome.

If the crown fits where it. We KINGS have to remember it is a tough job but someone has to do it, until someone else steps up and wants to take over.

PS: I sure hope for your sake they change that weather forcast. The latest is not looking good.

WTF they were predicting 0% precipitation yesterday... Now "Friday
Mostly cloudy in the morning...then becoming partly sunny. A 50 percent chance of showers. Highs in the mid 40s."

Hey Rod, even if the weather doesn't cooperate for friday, they still have T&T on sat & sun if that works for you.

I know it's a long ride for you but I'll be there friday or sat/sun to vid your antics.

I was thinking the same thing. And since the weather changes every few hours I am not sure even 3 dozens times is even enough for us in Michigan. Might be more like 100 times.
