so much for the light wheels making me faster.I put the stock front wheel back on and it cured the wheelies.pb my 60 ft on that run at 1.64.Gettin there.just gotta be more consistent.Out of curiosity about the horsepower v torque comparison my last run i shifted at 8500rpm which drops back to 7000rpm in the next gear.This is where the torque is at its highest.I had to use 5 gears and ran it out to 8800 in 5th over the line.What would be your guess on the et and mph.I still launched at a low 1.7 60ft?

PB for me too, 9.815 @143mph! It was my first run of the night which is supposed to be my slowest and usually is because I launch soft on the first run then my runs get quicker with practice, except tonight where it ws my fastest only because I managed to stuff up every other run. Better luck for me net week I hope.

gee i wonder where you got that info chris? your time slip maybe.Still 9.9 shifting at 8500 isn,t too bad.Look out simmo that copper bike is starting to look a little tarnished.Better get the brasso out.

Better ease up on Rob there Glenn, he's been too chicken to come play with the fast boys lately.

I think the brick in the front has cured the wheeles, what time did you run on that one short shifting Chriss Good stuff for street bike class, I might turn up at street height just for you next week

Be there next week Rob, my adjustable lowering links are on order, then I expect to get some track rash on my knees with the bike set to Genn height !

I might be the time to try that carbon rear chris,i think the cush drive makes it feel different off the line.Simmo i was still getting some wheelies last week with the brick but the stock front helped that bit extra.Its now much easier to ride in first now.Pin the throttle before the clutch is out and wait for the shift light.I did a 9.95 @140mph shifting at 8500.I missed a shift too so it could have been better.Glenn height eh.I offered guido a ride last night,but he resisted,probably scared.I just wanted a spin on his with that awesomely comfortable seat.

How was the grip last night, am I in the shit with street tyres on
Chriss if you lower the bike too much it can go against you, mad monos

GRIP WAS GOOD ON LEFT HAND SIDE . DONT KNOW HOW THE RIGHT LANE SECT BUT AS IS THE GROWING TREND THE TIN TOPS GAVE US OIL DOWNS, BLOWN DIFFS/GEARBOXES,ONE GUY DID A 180 HALF TRACK AND THE WHITE UTE WENT UP IN FLAMES IN THE BURNOUT COMP..... AGAIN....WHAT A JOKE
14-09-2007, 07:24am
just a stealth,but its only done 2 nights.I found the right lane to be great.the track was tacky under my boots.I have to resilicone my sole back on.Doing a good 1.6 60 ft really feels noticeably better.I,m out in front now but i can hear chris,s induction roar.Methinks 9.6-9.7 will soon be the norm.
