Bill had to make a rookie run. Shut it off at 3/4 and coasted through at 208. Course smooth but has a dip after the finish. Weather not bad so far.   LSL
All motor all the time and a turbo now and then.

Bill did go down.  He is said to be ok, possible broken ankle.  He was airlifted to the hospital as a precaution.  I don't know any of the details how or why.

Lets all keep him in our prayers.

Bill was timed at 236 on his second run Head wind. Will have to wait to hear from the man himself what happened (If the cell phone survived). With the enclosed bodywork Bill went down with the ship so to speak. His left side particularly his ankle was caught between the bike and ground. Someone will get us a report from the hospital, please pray it is not too serious.  :cry:      LSL

 :shock: Wow, so glad he is alright, this was not the news I was hoping for, yikes.

You too Shane, glad you are OK, sorry about the engine.

Bikes can be fixed or replaced. Hope Bill has health insurance.

we sure hated seeing Bill go down and are soooooooooooooooo glad he didn't get banged up any worse.

wind is about as bad as i've ever seen it, but at least its pretty steady so that 10-20+mph quartering headwind can be more or less safely dealt with.

TFA & friends are here in nearly full force, but speeds are obviously way down.

Tommy Gates got a 240+/- naked pass in.

First down the track at 7:30am, I did a 217.3 off the trailer, spinning badly 1st &2nd, my own damn heavy handed fault.
An hour & half later did a 214.1 into 10-15mph straight headwind.  Put it on the trailer, no sense beating it up.

Don Davila got 202 sputtering, alcohol turbo busa, fukken gremlins.  Terry Kizer is here helping, hoping for WAY more today
there's more but my computer is acting up...
Often wrong, but never unsure!!!!!

Good report Karl  :thumb:
The new half track clocks are awesome for spectating and peoe without gps data.
I'm running naked because my bodywork is rubbing the fender due to a leaky fork, will fix today. Went 209 to half and 241 in the mile, my best naked run. Gives me a better understanding of how awesome Bill's 255 naked run is!
