Just checking to see if people were able to make any runs today...

They ran today
-
We ran from 9:45 (when we got the track dry) until 7:00. Perfect day for racing with a light tail wind. Fastest bike was 222 in the mile (sorry Karl). 35% chance of showers tomorrow. Everyone is happy as hell. You should all be here.

hey Tim,
I am happy as hell that very familiar ZX12 ran 222.0 in the Mile, makes my hard lil heart go pitter-patter. :cheers:
tell em to run 1.5mile today and beat Doug Meyer's 222.39 at 2009 Loring 1.5mile (on a that ZX12 in its junk yard dog days)

They fought with the clutch all day and he short shifted it to the 222.
when got the 222 they realized that they were out of gear. So, more is better. I'll tell them for you but I think they are going to want Colts 235.

short shifting costs 3-5mph... :-(

This bike is now the fastest NA Kaw, period. And it did it without a gale-force tailwind, like was present in '09. Awesome.

226+ into a headwind. Warp12 philosophy reigns on this day, it seems....

It was a great run on a beautiful machine into a fairly hefty headwind. Congratulations again Henry and Scott!
We had riders doing 15-20 runs. Yesterday. Same today. Folks were hot lapping until they couldn't stand it any more! :cheers:

Guess only one camera was available and no cars made the event.

Josh (at long shutdown) took a bunch of photos and there were others as well, I'm sure that links will surface. Vehicle 7600 ("Das Bullett") http://www.landracing.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=9934 ran 200+ but I can't remember their best speed. There were a few new 200 hats as well.

thanks for the props Karl, it was a serious TEAM effort :cheers:
