The Shock Has Arrived!

Now that is a thing of beauty! Our stock shock has been re-springed and re-valved. There was an issue of traction and we traced it back to the shock. The stock shock is not exactly a drag racing shock, but with these adjustments, it will be!

Traction is one of the most challenging things on the track and the more the merrier!

Now the shock will go back into the bike and it will be taken to Schnitz Racing to be put on their dyno. Then it is off to the graphics shop for a wrap!

Preparing For the 2010 AMA Dragbike Season

The Busa has been torn down for about a month now and was just recently put back together. All of the logos and stickers have been removed and it is prepped for wrapping.

We added a new swingarm, bigger Nitrous bottle and add some 50 shot fittings. An MSD ignition module and progressive Nitrous controller also were added.

The bike will be off to the dyno soon and wrapping it will complete the layout. Then she will take her long winter nap!

Norwalk - Summit Motorsports Park October 10-11 2009

The Track or Treat Fall Nationals at Norwalk certainly were more of a Treat for us this year! We took our 2008 Suzuki Nitrous Hayabusa and ran a 9.27 in the quarter!

We also went several rounds in Street ET as well as Street Fighter! Overall what we have learned this year has really came together at Norwalk.

What a great year we have had at the A All Animal Control race team! We owe it all to the fantastic Clients, Franchise Owners, Employees and Suppliers that make our program a success!

This will be our last official race for 2009 and we will be posting the 2010 AMA Dragbike Schedule in November. We are going to scale back our racing to a shorter distance and run more races and get more passes for extra seat time.

We hope to see you at the track again in 2010!

Atco Dragway September Orient Express Nationals

The race at Atco got off to a soggy start. It rained 3 days prior to the event and when we finally started running on Saturday, the track was very slick.

All of the high horsepower bikes did not hookup and even the lower powered bikes had a tough time finding any grip.

We managed to get in the second round of Street ET and then turned on the red light on the next round.

Our Street Fighter category was solid in qualifying but not getting a good light cost us the run. Overall the bike did much better and we didn't have to overcome any technical problems. We are anxiously awaiting Norwalk in October to see if we can best our low ET and run a great number!

A All Animal Control is having a great year at the track and improving it's racing program with each event.

Pingel Thunder Nationals Video

Pingel Thunder Nationals Results

AMA Dragbike put on another good show at the Pingel Thunder Nationals in Indy on August 1st and 2nd. The track was expertly prepared and everybody made good passes.


In fact, we made our best pass yet! The bike ran a 9.495 on a 1.555 sixty footer and hit the traps at 145mph. At that speed we broke out of Street Fighter and they placed us further down the ladder. It was not fast enough in RealStreet to get us a better qualifying spot and we were at the bottom of the rung on that ladder.


We move up two spots in the points and are now 19 out of 43...so we are in the top 20! Not too bad for our rookie year! With 3 more races to go, we may make it to the top 15! RealStreet is an extremely competitive class and with our speeds improving each time, we are making progress.


With all the mechanical issues we were plagued with, we overcame each one and made every pass we could.

O'Reilly Raceway Park August 1st and 2nd 2009

We will be heading out next week to Clermont, Indiana to attend race #5 of the AMA Dragbike circuit. This will be a special time for me as my hometown of Brownsburg, IN is just a stones throw away from the track and family and friends will be joining us for a great time.

If you will be in the area, stop by and visit. O'Reilly Raceway Park

There are a lot of things to do near the track such as visit the NHRA race team shops or go to the Indy 500 track. There is a first class museum there that you won't want to miss!

See you at the track!

Atco New Jersey - Rickey Gadson Drag Racing School

Atco Dragway in Atco, NJ is a nice track located in a rural setting which makes it perfect for racing. The elevation is roughly 25 above sea level and the track surrounded by beautiful pine forests. You couldn't ask for more when it comes to a place to run your bike.

Our inaugural race season has been a learning experience and with every race brings new experiences and knowledge. We continue to get the bike and rider faster and our goal is to be at the 9 second level by years end or better.

Thanks to all the support of our team members, friends and family, we will see you at the races!

A All Animal Control - Martin Michigan US 131 Motorsports Park

This is the way you want to launch out of the beams! We laid down some great passes as Martin, Michigan and had a blast. A All Animal Control of Detroit was also a destination on this trip and we had the pleasure of meeting Cheryl VanDyke and Kay Ellis at their Ann Arbor office.

Looking forward to meeting with friends and family in Indy in August!

If you have a wildlife problem in the Detroit area, feel free to call on the best wildlife professional at A All Animal Control of Detroit!

U.S. 131 Motorsports Park Results

I fought the rain all the way to the track on Thursday and arrived at about 4pm. It stopped raining at 4:30, so I got to work on unpacking everything and getting bedded down for the night.

Friday - Test and tune started at 6pm and the bike was ready to run down the track. The passes were not real encouraging and the track didn't seem to be very well prepped. All the passes were in the low 10's with the exception of one 9.8366 made about 6:43. The last pass ended up with spinning the rear tire as we tried to launch at 6K with a bad track.

Saturday - Started raining about 4am and continued until about 8 or 9 and then they got the track dried out. We started to run around noon and I didn't get my pass in until about 5pm. I was set up against Jeremy Teasley in the first round of qualifying. I launched hard and beat him off the line and never looked back. About the end of the track I didn't notice that he wasn't flying by me and I looked back and he was way behind me. I won that race and found out later he broke down. A win is a win!

Sunday - I was going to the first round of eliminations with Jeremy Teasley again and this time he didn't break, but I ran the best pass ever with a 9.675!

We are gradually getting the bike ( and me ) faster with each trip to the track.

I want to thank my Sponsor - RMShooting.com and especially thank all the franchise owners at A All Animal Control that make it all possible! They are the absolute best!

Nitrous Refill in Charleston WV

If you are searching for nitrous in the Charleston, WV area, we have finally found a supplier for our nitrous Hayabusa! We called lots of shops before we finally found it and are so glad we did as our air shifter is nitrous controlled too.

Rapid Motorsports located at 6558 MacCorkle Ave, Charleston, WV 25304 - 304-925-6009.

The shop is run by a real nice couple and they can fill small and larger car bottles.

Kanawha Valley Motorsports Park

We took the bike down to Kanawha Valley last Friday night and ran 10 passes. The extended swingarm kept the front end down nicely and the grip was there when we lowered the rear tire quite a bit.

The best pass was a 6.4 in the 1/8th and we hope to get it to at least a 6 second pass. This was all on motor and we didn't spray at all. Planning another trip to the track this Friday and hope to spray a shot or two. The sixty foot time was not what we had hoped for and just need to find the right launch RPM for the new sprocket and swingarm extensions. She really ran well though!

With this set up, the bike should run in the mid to low nines in the quarter.

A All Animal Control at Atlanta Dragway - April 3rd, 2009

We fought our way through about 6 or 7 hours of rain and finally made it to Commerce, GA at around 11:30pm on April the 2nd. The traffic was pretty heavy and the rain didn't help any either.

We unloaded the bike and filled our Nitrous bottle and purchased some VPC16 fuel rated at 117 octane. Brought the bike over to the "Hitman" at MC Dynotec. The Hitman ran the first dyno pull and it pumped out 177hp. He then tweaked the maps and got the bike to a consistent 181.7hp.

He then ran the Nitrous and it created 214.9hp! We increased our horsepower 38 horses with the addition of the Nitrous and controller.

The wind has been kicking all day gusting to about 30Mph and we decided to not test and tune due the headwind. Instead we will go right into our qualifying tomorrow and the weather is supposed to be very nice but go from good to worse on Sunday. Let's hope they push the bikes through and we all have a safe weekend!

A All Animal Control and Rickey Gadson

Here is our run against 8 Time World Champion Rickey Gadson. Our launch could have been better and we lost precious time getting out of the lane. Hopefully we will get to line up against Rickey soon and try it again. Valdosta March 2009 Bikeweek Nationals

Bikeweek Nationals Update

The 2009 AMA Dragbike season got off with a great start. Lots of drag racers at the track and a good time was had by all.
We didn't bring home any trophies, but will take what we learned South Georgia Motorsports Park and bring it to Atlanta Dragway!
Here we are lined up for a run against 8 time World Champion Rickey Gadson. Rickey is a nice guy and I enjoyed chatted with him after he beat the pants off me.
Looking forward to Atlanta Dragway. It should be a great time for all!

Bikeweek Nationals!

Alisa and I made it down safely to the track and they have been doing a great job with the track prep and operations. It was crazy busy this morning getting everything unpacked and prepping the bike, but we managed to make 4 passes during the test and tune.



After the 3rd pass I was getting used to the new clutch set up and XXX Racing "rocket fuel" ( 108 octane ). It seemed like the front tire was off the ground for the first 300 hundred feet and it was quite the ride on that wheelie!



My times on the first pass:



60' - 1.893

330 - 4.990

1/8th - 7.289

1000 - 9.197

1/4 - 10.784 @ 140.62



2nd Pass

60' - 1.879

330 - 4.729

1/8th - 6.919

1000 - 8.762

1/4 - 10.325 @ 143.43



3rd Pass

Time Slip is in my key pocket in race suit back at the trailer!



4th Pass

60' - 1.837

330 - 4.618

1/8th - 6.772

1000 - 8.604

Waiting On Two Bolts From The Machine Shop

Two bolts and we are ready to fire the Busa up! It seems like it has been an eternity since the bike was running and hopefully Tuesday we will be good to go!

The header and pipe are installed, clutch mod is complete, mirror block offs are on and various other projects have been completed on the bike.

After we fire it up we will check for leaks and any air in the cooling system. If everything checks out we will give it one more going over and then button it back up, clean the machine very well and then put some additional stickers on her. The first race is rapidly approaching and we want to be ready way before it starts in case there are any last minute issues.
