Wow, very nice. Great job!
Any day on a motorcycle like this that ends just needing parts and labor is a good day.

That bumps the fastest nitrous speed up the list a ways - well done!

Is there more left in it for this meet?

WoW!!  :shock: WTG Ramsom. You have mastered the most difficult form of pavement LSR. And with a 1350 without ultra aero. You got some "Big Bottles"   :mrgreen:  Congrats again.  LSL

Rain, rain, rain.
Shane Stubbs lost the motor at 245 in 5th gear, ran over his own parts and punctured his rear tire. He kept it upright and is fine.
Unfortunately Guy Caputo went down on the big end and was airlifted out. He was conscious and asking questions. Prayers sent.

Super pumped about the achievements of members and the skill of bringing a bike to a stop from 245 with no rear tire, but all the air sucked out of the room reading about Guy. Sending positive thoughts and strength.

The latest news on Guy is that he has a broken leg and arm. He wil will get surgery tonight. He's beat up real bad, but from all preliminary indications should be ok.

Get well soon Guy. Glad it wasn't worse although it probably feels worse right now. The LSR family is thinking of you.  :tu:

Hey Shane, all that practice at Gilley's had you ready to ride the wildest bull of all. Nice job.

Fabulous start to the Wilmington
and east-coast season !

Ransom Holbrook =  244.2997 mph
NO TURBO, just nitrous !

Fast time of the meet,
Fast time of the year.
Beat all the cars......

That puts him on the World's Fastest
Riders List in about 45 place.

(MOST worthy for a first-effort to make
the list in the mile with NO TURBO !)

THREE big moves on the world's fastest list
of fifty, and it's only the beginning of May !
