Opening night at the drags (PICS)
03 May 2009 22:51
I only got a couple of pics from Friday night. The track looks awesome but is going to need to be broken in. The new 660 feet of concrete is pretty slick.
First bike on the new track

He just got that bike 2 days before the pic so he took it easy. He only ran a 11 something. He only did one pass and went home to tear it apart. He is making it a dragbike. :laugh:

I'll look around and see if anyone has some video. All the fast cars were all over the track due to it being so fresh. It was a little scary sometimes. I was on my sons zx6 and the first run I kept the wheel up for about 80 feet but was moving towards the centerline until I shifted into 2nd. That felt pretty good. I still got a 12.52 out of a 15 year old 600.
On my second pass I beat a guy on a 05 Busa. He had problems getting into 3rd but a win is a win.
