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

1/4 - 10.148 @ 143.66!



Should post some pics tomorrow!

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.

My Ladies At The Track

The women in my life were at the track and enjoying the fun in the sun! This was the first trip to the drags for my daughters Jessica and Taylor and my wife Alisa grins and bears the time there.

Alisa is not exactly a drag race fan but I think it is growing on her! She wakes up every day raring to go to the track...NOT :-) I am glad I have the enthusiasm for the both of us!

Our next race will be February 28th - March 1st at South Georgia Motorsports Park in Valdosta, GA.

We are looking forward to it!

AMA Dragbike 2008 National Finals

Korry Hogan was once again getting it done at South Georgia Motorsports Park. He caught a bad light on his last run and lost the round.

Larry McBride and Korry Hogan were sure making history running their incredible Top Fuel machines. Larry made the quickest pass ever on a motorcycle running a 5.74 if memory serves me correctly!

We had an awesome time at the track and ran into our old friends Debbie Knebel and Pat Jones. Paul Cavanaugh was also in attendance running his turbo Hayabusa.

The weather was picture perfect, the accommodations were great and the crowds were great. AMA Dragbike put on a great performance as always. Radical Rich was there blogging away on his website http://www.brackettech.com/index.php

Rich will be the voice of the 2009 AMA Dragbike season and we look forward to him announcing the events across the country!

South Georgia Motorsports Park

The National finals are coming up November 7th - 9th and we will be out there supporting the racers and sharing some great times at the track.

Our team is coming together and we are getting our gear ready for bike building over the winter. Our first AMA Dragbike event will be in Valdosta in March at the South Georgia Motorsports Park.

If you will be in the area, give us a call @ 304-345-1511 and leave a message with our staff and we will contact you. We would love to see you while we are in the area!
