Well must say takin' photo's is way down on my list when on my bike & it very rarely happens, usually way to busy riding, but thats me 
.
To start I have 1 x photo from the Palmyra Allbike Drag meet last weekend 8/12/12. Photo was taken by the local paper "Daily Mercury".
They have got me on launch in my first qualifying run. If you look near the rear tyre you will see how poor traction was, even after a burnout & checking for traction twice...
Managed 3 x runs in 10.5's the night before & 3 x qualifying runs of 10.437, 10.440 & 10.406.

But come race time I flamed the rear tyre on my first pass & left the line sideways till I buttoned off to get traction...
Next run was not flash either with with a wheelspinning 10.686, this time it was minimal wheelspin on launch but she spun up the rear tyre around 7500rpm in first gear. My final run I let the tyre down to 18psi & I had a by run as 3rd fastest qualifier in class, this gave me a 10.447 on 10.400 dial in, even with a little wheelspin off the line.
All in all I am happy I can ride the 'Busa to the same consistency as my ZRX, but next time I WILL have the traction sorted out. NO excuses.
We had 50 odd bikes for the meet, not as much as when I last raced but more than there has been for the last 2 years apparently. Things have been hard for some around here lately.
Our setup.
Finally, Congratulations to Grizzly on his Gen2 for breaking into the 9's for the first time during the previous night test & tune
