Champ, sorry for making ya work
Hey deano, cos I've payed for 4 riders and I'm bringing 4 riders and four bikes do I need to pay more to be able to run any one of the four bikes?
I spose I'd better drag the bike out & make sure it runs.
Lastminute Racing Team rides again ! :rolleyes:
Tell me about it. Don't even know if mine runs yet. Just finished the new axle adjusters and pit a rear wheel in. Still got to kick it in the guts , put some front discs on .
Make some longer dog bones and hope like hell I have fixed the clutch shudder
Going to go down to the wire
Shit hot day.
Thanks Deano for organizing it. And Si for the clerical work.
Just got home (have to work tomorrow) and buzzing still.
Judge doesn't like traveling south of the border, Darrens Honda that he dragged from a hard rubbish pile goes ok, Kev absolutely punishes rear tyres, and according to a busa rider my old ZX9 "goes pretty fucken hard".
Best I got was 11.112 @ 131mph and try as hard as I could I couldn't break into 10's like I so badly wanted too. Traction was a hit and miss affair for the first 200ft. This shit is addictive as fuck just trying to get everything to come together and get just another .1 second.
Hope the evening works out as well as the day did and look forward to doing it again next year.
Pics and vid later too tired to argue with computers tonight.
Sweet! I will be there. Next year! It's would be sweet if we could get it lock down early as, even of it's locked down within a 4 week period so I can book some hols, Deano your a fuuckin legend of Asf, no! Your just a legend! :) I want too be there, you know I'll pull mad skids :)
Thanks heaps guys I had a blast , I didn't get the times I wanted but I had a great time , thanks to Deano and Si and everyone , and a big thanks to Yella especially for putting up with me all weekend lol
Like the others have said a great day. Popped my cherry at drag racing,hmm it's fun isn't it. It was great to meet up with mates I knew and people that I hadn't met before. A big thanks to Deano for organising this and all the er questions that he had to deal with in the lead up. A huge thanks to Yella for finding my wallet that I left lying around (it's good to see there's still honest folk about) it came as a bit of a shock when I tried to pay for my spag bol on the way home. Not as much of a shock as seeing the three nuns in the car park swigging on pots of VB!
Anyway for those that were there and those that weren't here's some pics

Nice, Glad I could help Simon
Good pics Si
Thanks for posting them
Think I saw you this morning deano heading into Heidelberg?
good pics simon...looks like a great weekend..fuck it missed out again
Thanks boys, had a blast
Good to see you hippies.
Had fun.
Might have broke my bike.
Awesome.
There it is! The picture that would sum up that whole weekend to me. The oldest rivalry there and captured perfectly. I can picture the gritted teeth and wide eyes in the helmets. Brilliant!

First 2 are the 7 last one was on Kev's Busa
Great pic's and run times boys. Looks like ya all had a ball. Hope it's on next year so i can get in a run or two.
Only got 4 slips for the day, best one is -
R.T. - .44
60' - 1.89
1/4 - 10.91
MPH - 131
That was one of my first few runs before the clutch got nasty on me so I never bothered getting any more tickets coz I wouldn't have gone any quicker or faster.
.2 & 4 MPH slower than last year :(fuck
Next years wish list - Nitrous Oxide to keep the turbos in sight, clutch cushion mod, extended swinginarm, air/quick shifter, straps, lowering links, a flat slick & a bigger tacho.
I want me a 9. :cool:
Thankyous to the Mean Dean Machine for his organisationality & Simon Sideways (yes, I saw that!) for the pics, what a top way to spend a Satdy!
tk just first do what a few of you boys should do........2 step ;-)
more power isnt the answer most of you boys have enough power for low to flat tens and some 9s
I reckon a quickshifter is cheating, I couldn't live with meself if I had too many 'aids'
Traction was the big problem for me. Lost so much time getting to third gear and half track or so so I could stretch the legs.
The track was not prepped at all so quite slick. The odd zx9 and gix 11 were over powering the track at times.
I enabled the 2 step on the ecu. It was fantastic. Made my 60foot time so much more consistent. Most in the high 1.8 low 1.9 from then on wheel spin took over even with the shinko 'hook up' tyre.
Maybe a little lower and a little longer next year then some 10.5's maybe
I am pretty keen to get back there on a normal test and tune day when the track is properly prepped and see what I can do with hopefully more traction.
:o
I didn't get any slips, but it was a fair walk from the pits to the bar, so I estimate around 10.5 minutes.....
It was good to see you all again.
