i had a great weekend, set 2 records and joined the 200mph club! a huge thank you to Bart Boucher and Eric Pacquette for a awesome weekend! i set the P-pp 750 record @ 129.5mph on barts 1974 triumph trident. then Eric offered me a ride on his 1990 gsx 1276cc turbo and i run a 236.9mph for the aps-bf 1650 record! to be 24 years old and have the opportunities that i have had, im still on cloud 9!

On 9-27-08 we lost a great friend and fellow racer, he was the BEST, he helped anyone with anything at anytime. His name is Dave Owen and he will be missed by all that knew him and I am glad to have met him.
Seeing him at Bonneville during 2008 Speedweek was the tops, Dave was in awe of the salt and as usual was there helping out anyone who asked..simply put we lost a great man who will be missed by all.

Great job Thomas. It is slways great to see you run on a fast bike. Get that side car going Eddie. Both our bikes came back needing a little work, but with 3 new records. We are happy with the APS/G-1000/4 record at 205 mph, but with the issues we had on the pass, there was much left on the table. It was a lot of fun seeing the Kawi's be fast though.

I hurt all kinds of stuff this weekend, never got a real pass. I've had a few meets with zero issues, I can't complain. I'll have it fixed up for Maxton.
Here's that slick bike;
