Man Jason, you're going to have a blast. LSR one of the best groups of people I have ever gotten to know. The first guy I ever met was RacerX, He goes by Eric. He's got or had a fist full of 250 records, along with Jarl, another Madcap of a guy. Eric has been running and modifying 250 Ninjas for a while, he know just about everything there is to know, and he'l share his expertise with you. Bring everything you can fit that you'll need for the bikes, and if you forget something somebody will help you out, just raise your hand and ask the question. Everybody has a good time and the name of the game is picking up speed as best you can.

Joe you are too kind. I knew it all when I was young. Now that I am old and leared a few things I find I don't know it from shinola.
trying to go 200 KPH with a 250cc four stroke.

jason, the productions class has been exstreamly fun and rewarding, and if you already own the bike most economical.

i took my sons 2002 Buell X1 white lightning and set, broke, and bumped records in multible classes. i did all the work needed for it to pass tech in house myself, also took the wealth of knowledge found here on the site and continued to go faster, faster and faster.

i plan on trying to get 160mph out of it in its oem configuration while keeping it street legal. [while i build bike no 2 for the goal of 200mph]

a rule book is the key, that way any questions you have can be refered to in the text of the actual rules.

by all means make it a family quest, my wife is my crew chief, my brother is my crew, my son is the bike owner. and yes driver changes are allowed.

as far as the ECTA, they truly are the best group of people i have met in the motorsports comunity.

see you in april

any questions just ask

Hey guys new here and looking to ge tmy bike legal for Wilmington this spring. I have a modified Triumph Rocket III Classic. I am sure it will be classified as modified as I have a Rotrex Supercharger on her. She will be running naked no streamlining. I feel she will give a good showing even though its probably outclassed since its a cruiser.
Anyway if anyone has a copy of the 2012 rule book they could let go I would appreciate it or at least the section covering the bikes and particularly 2300 cc modified class.

runt, I low-sided my bike recently and I really don't know if I'll have all the OEM stuff back on it in time for the April meet, so right now the plan is Modified Partial Streamliner. I may eventually try to get it in Production since it is stock, but time will tell. If all goes to plan, my wife will run her V-Star 250 in Production and maybe Modified so we can fill some of those empty records :-).

Warp, that is a nice bike! I love Triumphs. You could run Modified Blown Gas and Modified Blown Fuel in the 3000cc class. Neither class has a record yet, so you could be the first to set them.

Thanks,I haven't even thought much past the 200 mph naled club. But I must admit that sounds funn The only time I ran any race fuel in her was to get control of the detonation when I first fired her up. Of course she ran great on the 116 octane. Now since its a daily cruiser with 60,000 miles on her I just run premium 93 octane. I do have almost 40,000 on the blower. The longevity of the Rotrex unit is nice. SHe is a blast on the street most people come up on the left sid eto pick on me and well I drop two gears and I am gone.  I do love letting bikes have me off the line that way they get to hear the whistle right before I go by. The grin factor is great :)

Triumphs rule. I don't know if you're going to remove the bags - a couple of years ago at Maxton, there was a guy with Harley Ultra who left the side bags on - that's where he carried the nitrous.
