Thanks guys it was a great feeling to go out and pull a PB of 9.42 at only 140 mph on 9psi. I had major clutch slip on the new Hays and am slowly learning how to get that sorted. Hopefully an 8 is not too far away.
I really appreciate the support and help from Troy and Hank at Warhead racing for motivating me to push through to finish the build. Still a lot of tuning on the engine and clutch to go but I am ecstatic about the results after only about 12 laps.
Also a big thanks to Maj and Brett Ghedina for all the technical knowledge imparted to me without prejudice. I would be more than happy to pay it forward with the knowledge I have gained on a turbo build to anyone who wants to know. I am not one to fear being bettered by someone else because I gave away my learnings. I am satisfied in the knowledge that I have achieved many milestones through out my build and lets face it, you can build the fastest bike in the world but you still got to string it all together on the day to win a race.

There is no strong performance without a little fanaticism in the performer
