Going to the dyno on Sunday. If it survies that then I will be good to go.

IT looks like I will be there myself. This is my first texas event, but I will be running a Nikon D300 camera instead of a bike.

See you all there

Don

I look forward to meeting you Don. Have that camera ready for the super fast turbo bikes in the Shootout

Way cool Don, come by and hang out with TFA, great bunch of fellas. Maybe also talk to Jay or Shannon and see if they can hook you up with a spot close to the traps to take a couple pics.

Tom, I think your going to have a lot of fun spectating. At times it can be even more fun than running!

By the way, the old 12 motor is in the Frame!!!!!

TFA always has the hotties so I will check them out for sure !! I am supposed to be set up as media so hopefully they will allow me close enough to get good pics.

I look forward to seeing all of you there

Got the bike tuned by the Cheese-man yesterday!

I've just got to wire a few things and put the fairings back on and I'm good...

the suspense is building!

Good enough to get in the Normally Aspirated Shootout?

TRNorBRN6001 · « **Reply #36 on:** March 15, 2009, 02:54:36 PM »

It's a real eye opener for a stock motor!

EXCELLENT!!!

Buncha folks (incl TFA) staying in the greater metropolitan Beeville area.

Well we have gotten alot of work done,, on the shop! It's close to being finished but we haven't touched the Heavy Bus at all so it's going to be a crunch for us too. But at least it will be an indoor crunch!

I'm all ready other than installing the fairings and last minute packing...

Had a good weekend at the Cheese Man's shop...

rgeorge · « **Reply #42 on:** March 15, 2009, 11:45:04 PM »

Not ready.

My 12 is completely torn down, still waiting on some parts. I don't have as much practice with assembly/disassembly as most of the TFA guys, so the build is going very slowly. I should have it together by the end of May. That gives me all summer to get a good tune for the Oct Mile.

Well we are doing pretty good, took the bike out for a short breakin run yesterday. Going to JC's for dyno/mapping tomorrow. Im excited.

TRNorBRN6001 · « **Reply #44 on:** March 20, 2009, 01:23:12 PM »

Don't know what time you are headed over to JohnnyCheese's, but watch out for traffic on I35 near downtown Austin, SXSW. Usually bad in the early afternoon/evening.

Hope to be doing heat cycles by Sat. morning.

fvance · « **Reply #45 on:** March 20, 2009, 02:33:19 PM »

I am leaving here at 7am, appointment is at 9am. I figured Sat morning traffic wouldnt be too bad. JC said not to be to anal about the 9 oclock deal.

TRNorBRN6001 · « **Reply #46 on:** March 20, 2009, 03:10:58 PM »

Yep, all the out of town music folk should still be sleeping.

fvance · « **Reply #47 on:** March 23, 2009, 02:25:37 PM »

Just looked at the weather forcast, Fri. 20% chance of rain, 3-5 mph SW wind, That be a tail wind.

Sat. and Sun. highs in the mid 70's, didnt say about the wind, but I dont think it is supposed to be much. Sounds like a perfect set up for lots of horsepower and lots of fast runs.

Fred,
JC said you were possibly having some set up questions on yr LM-1??

I ain't no expert, but i have done it with LM-1 and DL-32. If I can be of any assistance just say the word
