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!
