The night started out Very slippery(wheelspin to redline 1st,2nd,3rd) and i started with a stall after burnout and a tired battery(missed first run).Thanks to LEGEND i got a few push starts until we pulled the wires for the headlight.The rubber layed down and traction eventually came back,but by that time we all had 15psi or less in our back tyres and had a 5-6km,hr head wind.My stacks seemed to have the edge in 4thgear over the factory shorts(must be the torque) as peak rpm,s weren,t reached over the line(down 150rpm).We eventually got 9 runs I think(me 8) and the last 3 were within about 15 minutes which was fun.I had some great side by side runs with simmo and chris,I won a few and they won a few(over the line anyway).I had wheelspin and a wheelie at the same time once which was a 1st and hopefully a last,simmo got the death wobbles and a very close concrete wall,guido enjoyed matchracing the nos busa and chris got lots of shiftlights.Simmo cracked a 9.9 and chris and i got a few 10.1,s for a dissapointing night based on grip levels as 10 degrees on such a quiet night with no headwind and a goodtrack could have been the makings of lots of pb,s.Stay tuned for LEGEND,s streetbike debut next week.Poor bloke was itching for a run,bad spectator makes a good competitor.

Lots of launch practice, I could feel the confidence building in my launches and 60' times decreasing, shame about the track grip though, bordering on dangerous! I'll be back after the next track prep.

WSID and their expert track preparation again. Makes me less than keen to bring the road bike.
Glad everybody had a good time and lots of runs.

Hey, Good night I thought (except for prep) Really good to see a whole lot Hayabusa's doin' what they do best!
Can't wait to get out there again Glen, bike's all done this arvo!!! Good attitude's I noticed as well, guys kept at it untill the bitter end with pb's for the night happening for most towards the close of meeting. Hopefully next week. Leonard.

I,ll match race ya leonard as long as you tell bruce its not stock height.Afterall thats the ONLY reason you,d be going faster, right.I also spoke to the shinko importer and confirmed their is a difference between a stealth and ultrasoft.The compound.Still not a mickey thompson though.If it gets any slipperier we may all need trailers with Mickey Thompson shod bikes.You,d almost think they are trying to scare us off.Thanks for the push i owe you and dee now,one for each bike.

How did you go last night Guys,
Do we have a faster Busa than the Copper one yet

Who knows with all the rain we've had recently, there may even have been some grip. Would have been a brass monkey night though.

3 10.0,s and 3 1.7 60ft,s.Had the horsepower on leonard and beat him 3/9 times.Loved catching and passing him on the top end.Must be that shit motor from bruce he,s got in it.The return lane was WET as.Leonard ran alot of 9.9,s and a few 9.7,s and a 1.5 60ft.I think we did 10-12 runs and they closed at 9.15pm.Great to launch next to leonard,spurs you on.Guido was on song and even ran a 10.7 launching in 2nd gear.I once again experienced wheelspin whilst on the backwheel,not nice.143mph night.Thats approx 20 runs in 2 weeks,thats more like it.
