The June 2013 race at The Ohio Mile was a time when
everything came together for A All Animal Control Racing. The weather on Saturday
was picture perfect. We normally battle a headwind on this track, but this day
the wind was calm and great speeds were to be had.
We wanted to get out on the track early and be one of the
first to make a pass. The density altitude was 1260 feet when it was time to
make our first pass and we threw everything at it to make a great launch. The
bike pulled hard in the crisp cool air and at the half mile trapped 202.3381
mph. The back half of the track was even better and the bike picked up a ton of
speed to hit the traps at 229.3578!
This pass became the official Fastest Nitrous Bike in The Standing
Mile in the World, previously held by Guy Caputo of Tiger Racing Products at a
speed of 228.803 and was a 9 year old record.
Sunday came and provided some decent weather with sun and
some wind. The density altitude was over 2000 feet on our first run and the
bike clicked off a 226.9269 for another record in the Modified Partial
Streamlined Blown Fuel 1650 class.
The next pass up the bike slowed down a mile per hour as the
winds were picking up and the bike went through the traps at a brisk 225.7903.
The final pass of the meet developed an issue with the bike
breaking up when the nitrous came in and we had to shut it down and coast
through the traps. That certainly is the way it is in motorcycle racing!
This weekend added another 3 Land Speed Records to the
rider, Mark E. Dotson’s credit and bumped him up the list 14 spots to land 39th
in the Top 50 Fastest Bikes in The Standing Mile in The World.
With a 202.3381 half mile speed, Mark will be #9 on the list
of those over 200 in the half mile. There are only 13 riders to have achieved
this record that are listed on SuzukiHayabusa.org.
Mark E. Dotson now holds all 4 of the Modified Partial
Streamlined Fuel Non Pushrod records in the 1350cc and above category and 2 of
the 4 Modified Partial Streamlined Blown Fuel Non Pushrod records, the 1650 and
2000cc.
A All Animal Control Racing now has 12 Land Speed Records
and will be chasing after many more in the future.
Thank you to our many great sponsors who make our racing
program a winning team!

I am impressed! What did it look like at 226 mph? Could you even see the road?
