Sunday morning had issue's with the threads on a needle jet in one of my VM29's
while changing main jets so I came up with a get by N/R patch
and we're good.

Wrong I then started having what seems like slow battery issue's motor turning over
real slow and poping back in the carb's starts one time and not the next so worked on that
and it turned out to be the switch I used to do the fake quick shift so unplugged it and
it's game on bike's working.

First round draw a guy on a 92 1100 Suzuki.
480

I dial a 7.40 he's a 7.16 Green light I pull a 1.72 60 ft. bikes pullin hard bang two gears and look
back I got about 4 bikes on him get to the line chop the throttle and run a 7.50@90.91
to his 7.49@104.07 for the win.

Round two I draw a buddy Steve on his turbo ZRX1200. Steve's REX has gone 5.40's 1/8 mile that thing is f'in quick.
480

My 7.40 to his 6.09 I run a 7.48@88.62 to Steve's 6.0972@103.14 and puts me out by .1493
Banged the rev limiter at 10,500 to long on the last shift as Steve came around
said he heard it and thought I missed the shift.
Even if I made a clean shift Steve would have still got me.

Never thought when I started this thread 3 1/2 years ago it'd stay at
the top of the racing page this long and draw 28,000 views.

The complete history of me drag racing what started as a $500 beater POS KZ650
is in here and would be followed this long.by people from around the F'in world.
I'd like to thank ALL of you.

Ya our track may shut down for a few weeks in late Jan. into Feb. as thats our
coldest time of the year. If I drive a few hours to San Antonio or Houston I can run year round.

Hoping to make a trip to S.A. later this month to run some 1/4 mile passes
