Mikey Slowe just took Johnny Turbo's velocity equiped 04 1000 and went 7.90 at 180. That thing hauls ass. Mikey said with some more seat time the bike will go 70's. Great job all involved.:bah:
Good number I guess? I recall the 750s in prostar running 7s and the superbikes running 7s on all motor. With todays technology I don't see where running 7s on a 1000 would be an issue. Lee Sheirts was rumored to have gone a 7 second pass on his bike testing somewhere, as where I saw the bike go an 8.02 or something. Let's see the numbers in competition. By all means not taking anything from Mike Slowe's accomplishment, though. Great job!!!
The bike SLOWE is riding has no bars and a mickey DOT and the #'s were in 6 passes.
If it was only as easy as a few believe?
Huh? :shock:
The bike SLOWE is riding has no bars and a mickey DOT and the #'s were in 6 passes.I understand that the bike had no bars but I bet his 60ft was a low 1.30 something or maybe even a 1.20 something. Without taking anything away from Mr. Slowe's ability and riding skill, it is a great number by all means. I just know that though it was a different setup a smaller cc engine has been quicker and faster. I wouldn't call a mickey a DOT tire either, it's just a dressed up slick built for the job at hand. Mr Slowe could put up a number on a big wheel from what I've seen. Not saying that it was easy at all but I think many would agree that it would be done sooner than later and that there are other bikes and setups that will be doing it this upcoming season. Merry Xmas to all!!
If it was only as easy as a few believe?
How much hp did it have @ the wheel???they dont want to tell :D
1.38 60ft and if that 1K were setup as a big tire dragbike with bars it would be in the 6's :wink:NOT A CHANCE

Blur - if i had $500 to bet i would save it for a ported head.
Sounds to me like you may never want to race anyone at a track if you will only do it for money.
I would only be spraying a 28 shot (2-#18 nozzles) and i am only at 195rwhp.
Using the 1000cc excuse sounds "ricey".
My bad runs right now are 9.40's - hoping for 9.10 on motor on Jan 14th or 15th and if so i am looking at a ported head and/or N2O.

Hey we have a little 63" nitrous Busa would you like to do something with it 8)
:roll: so what happend to the 7.90 topic?
Not yet and it doesn't matter. I think it's just a bunch of smoke and mirror tactics to try and rattle Mikey. His only hope is for a part failure or red light or something like that.
I'm not betting with Slowe because I have a turbo or that I'm a turbo man. Swerve can't win IMO.
Pat whats up man? Where have you been? I will say one thing we will be down there in less than 2 months and we will bring a 64" turbo bike and a 64" nitros bike and you know how we do a whole trailer full. Maybe we can get that race with Chris this year. We tried to race gnd last year and his giant motor wouldn't start. By the way I weigh 260. Mikey will drag Swerve! Pat see yo soon.
Shawn Gann is going to ride Swerve's bike...That is what is being rumored anyway...
Shawn Gann is going to ride Swerve's bike...That is what is being rumored anyway...:D :D whos better on the tree????????
The red and black 1000 has been a 7 second pass earlier this year with a dry shot. No one will beleive it but it has gone a 7 something pass with a 40 shot sometime back.
He will try it because he does have a real chance at winning. Remember the first streetbike to go a 7 was on NOS and whether people beleive it or not the first 1000 to go a 7 was on NOS! :shock:
They're in trouble regardless. Mikey all the way, since day one, unless he goes red or breaks :wink:
Thing is the could keep making the turbo stronger,it will only take som much like swerves bike,if someone breaks there's gonna be a world of excuses.he's not faster,he's just luckier :lmao: :lmao:
If he beats Mikey his game is over. Everybody then knows what the bike will do. Who will race him then?
If he beats Mikey his game is over. Everybody then knows what the bike will do. Who will race him then?

In that case, he can't win either way. :? Win the race, lose future opportunities to race anyone else I suppose. :? Lose the race and be ridiculed to the ends of the Earth for all the trash talk :?
TODAY IS JUDGEMENT DAY!!!
Blur ya gonna be there??? Give me a call if so!
I wish they would hurry up and fix psycho so I can get some updates when they happen. :evil:
they are all there someone oiled the track as of right now!!!!!!!

what time did the track open and how much time does swerve have to get it right and is Gann riding the bike for swerve !!!!!!
swerve trying to get them to run the 1/8 so he has a chance!!!!even to them double the money but mickey says no can doo!!!LOOKS LIKE THERE GOING TO GET IT OFF!!!!all motor against turbo!!!!
I would have found a way to make the gas work,always carry extra parts.....Mav i owe you one.
Thanks for the updates Trea you are the man. :thumb:
From the very beginning Swerve was claiming his ALL MOTOR 1000 was faster than the TURBO one and never had any mention about using nitrous. Then he claimed he had the system on his bike but didn't use it. So he was supposed to be ALL MOTOR anyway :?: :?:
The man had big enough balls to step out there,said more to me than some that run their mouth about what they do have and never leave the house......I bet he gets respect still cause he is still tha big boss 1000 all motor as far as we can tell......Anybody that downs him should step up and try him.....NOW WHAT,BET THAT...Dude, the last words out of your mouth should be "bet anything", You talked all that trash about how Swerve was gonna beat Mike but would not bet!! Now I understand why. Swerve loss just like everybody with sense knew he would!
Swerve doesn't even race. His bike is fast though...
Swerve doesn't even race. His bike is fast though...
Swerve does too but not on that particular run. He'll match up with equal riders and we all know Mikey has few equals. I think Swerve has made a challenge about being the best 215lbs rider blah blah blah. Dunno how true but he does ride/race.
Obviously there we no times shown at Bradenton but the bikes looked like they ran 8.40 to 8.60 range today...

PSYCHO UP!!!!!
SWERVE LOST, THATS TO BAD, HOWEVER ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE DOGING HIM FOR RUNNING HIS MOUTH. THE FACT IS HE STEPPED UP TO A TURBO, AND IF HE TRIED TO SPRAY SO WHAT, ITS A TURBO, GIVE THE GUY SOME RESPECT, WHY DONT YOU GUYS THAT ARE DOGING SWERVE CALL HIM OUT OR ARE YOU JUST RUNNING YOUR MOUTHS :?:
I HAVE NEVER MET THE MAN , BUT HE STEPPED UP WHEN HE ALREADY KNEW WHAT THE TURBO RAN AND TRIED ANY WAY , HE HAS MY RESPECT!
:idea: go look at the pics and you'll see why it was close :!:Ill go ck it out and report back to the union. :lol2: :moped:

I met swerve and crew and they have my utmost respect.good people,fast bike,Ive met and dealt with Barry Henson personally and wouldnt trust a word outta his mouth as many others at the track where saying yesterday about him.All I can say is he better stay with the prostar so he can set up the races and rules and stay away from the grudge racin cause his shit sure didnt look to impressive against an all mota bike.won by the skin of his teeth and wouldnt have done that if the other bike would have had the spray right.That grudge race was a great example that Henson aint shit without having sombody in his back pocket throwing races or makin rules for him
Im not, I got nothin against Johnny or Mikey,,, but readin physco bikes post Barry talks shit like he had somthing to do with it in some twisted way but then again he twist every fuckin thing that comes outta his little mouth.I respect Mikey and Johnny.I cant help they have dealings with an idiot.Good race tho for sure. :smokin: :thumb:I met swerve and crew and they have my utmost respect.good people,fast bike,Ive met and dealt with Barry Henson personally and wouldnt trust a word outta his mouth as many others at the track where saying yesterday about him.All I can say is he better stay with the prostar so he can set up the races and rules and stay away from the grudge racin cause his shit sure didnt look to impressive against an all mota bike.won by the skin of his teeth and wouldnt have done that if the other bike would have had the spray right.That grudge race was a great example that Henson aint shit without having sombody in his back pocket throwing races or makin rules for him
dude thats not even barrys bike. he wasnt involved with bike at all from what i understand. its Johhnys bike that he built and tuned that has a velocity kit on it. i dont beliieve its a factory supported velocity bike. u can say what u like about barry, but i dont think he has a whole lot to do with this particular bike. dont be hatin on johnnys bike with Mikey riding cuz u dont care for barry.
I think barry helped tune it and sold them the kit only.To bad for them :? I guess you could tell since it only beat an all motor bike by the little tiny bit it did :lol:
:idea: go look at the pics and you'll see why it was close :!:
Saw the pics - i guess you are saying it was close due to the NOS bike having a 7" slick and 5 more inches of wheelbase?
Damn there sure has been a lot of speculation about this race. Believe this BOTH bikes have changed since the race was first proposed. It doesn't matter though congrats to Mikey on the win and props to Swerve for racing him. They tried several times to get the NOS to work and it didn't. As far as the speculation about the hidden NOS WHATEVER!!! Swerve's bike was out in the open the whole time they were working on it. You could see exactly what they were doing. If you guys knew the mph you would know it was NOT on spray. It was even said that Swerve's bike was down on mph that pass. Mikey did not have his best pass of the day either. I won't get into any info on the bikes but Johnny said they did not catch Swerve's bike until the 1000' mark. So think what you want. Both bikes were moving 8) Props go out to both camps for a heck of a job on both bikes :beechug:+1
No Mav you said the extra length and tire helped. I was just asking if you were sure, that's all :wink:
I know both Gary and Mikey as well as Swerve and his crew. They are all great guys who love motorcycle dragracing. Opinions are like a++sholes. Everyone has one. I agree that Barry did throw his sales pitch in the mix pretty quick. I didn't see him plug his kit when others bikes blew up. Anyone see when Barry's bike threw the rod in Gainesville? :bah: OOooPpPpsss, that was on national television!! Everyone saw that!! :lol: Anyone can buy parts but it's what you do with them that counts. I wonder what will happen next time these guys run. Blake is a wizard with the nitrous and Shawn has shown he can get out of the hole pretty good. Next time the nitrous will be working and Shawn would have had a little more seat time. Should be a good rematch. 8):thumb:
