Gotta be within 2%, isn't that the FIM rule for a return attempt?  I don't think it'll do -- but tell me if I'm wrong.

Nonetheless -- not too shabby for the first run in a couple of years.  Congratulations.

Not much going on.  Runs continue. Buddfab is warming the engine down here at the end of the int'l course, Wheeler is still canopy open in the pre-stage pit.  I'll go ask about that hat.

Here's the latest that we've got:

Wheeler's been airing up the rear tire, Buddfab ran 189, Wheeler's engine has been started just for checkout but the bike is still on the trailer, the little 125 cc Red and White Honda liner (#9622) is just leaving the line.

Sam says he thought he gave the hat back a few years ago after the Australia trip.

9622 is at the 2 mile.  Speed through the mile:  133.1mph

By the way, Thanks, Dean.  I appreciate the $$.

Jon, I made a small donation not to long ago and yes you did thank me. This coverage is lots cheaper than being there so I made another small donation. :cheers: The only problem with this is I cant tear myself away long enough to finish preping the bike for the dyno this weekend and WOS. :roll:
Come on Sam!!
