I'll be there in the Clydesdale class.
Too many oak barrel aged beers this winter.
The ol' leathers are working pretty hard.  :pw:
Have a Harley, spent lots of money on it, thought I had a fast motorcycle, bought a Busa, realized all I had was a fast Harley, not a fast motorcycle!

Got an update.

Ralph said he was only able to manage 214 on saturday. He said even though they had a 20+ MPH mostly tailwind it was blowing his bike around too much to make a full pass.

Sunday he said was calm the first half of the day. Thats when he ran his 262 in the 1.5 mile.

Not too bad for a little 1000!!  :tu:

Nothing but bike trouble-- both bikes had been running good, but neither would pull. 750 turned out to be a power wire pulled out of connector to boost controller and Busa suspect secondaries not firing.

Did anyone that ran Mojave notice a pretty good "dip" or "bump" in the runway about 7/8 of a mile ish... About 10-20 feet of the center line.
It was the biggest high speed wheelie I have ever done. Scared me pretty good.  :eek:

I will say...it felt a little bumpy out there.  I had to check my shorts when I got back to the paddock.

Erin ran a 228 on her na 1340.

Very impressive speeds for a bunch of riders at that event. 228 MPH out of a NA 1340 is outstanding.

So is of course 262 MPH on a 1K turbo.

Congratulations to all new record holders and personal bests.
