As told 2 me by The Master of Speed :wink: it Looks Like another BAGGER Went down,and I Fore 1{ in the Name of SAFETY } Think that there is a Problem inherent with them  :?? I've only drag raced 1 so The salt+ a Bagger is a combo I'm not familiar with,but as Obiwan Say's{IT'Z NOT RIGHT!} :-o . To Much aero Drag or Rider instability maybe? Or bad salt-Wet Course,and New Riders = Bad New :|?
Sure do miss Not being there :cry:!Keep up the Great Work,and Hope 2 See you All soon.

P.S A Sunset or Sunrise Pic would be Priceless!!! :cheers:

But the high point of the day was when I took my daughter into impound and  then to have her record certified. She ran 131 on her qualifying run, then 137 on the return run. This was on my Honda CX500T which can't go that fast.

Congrats to you & your daughter (... who's name is...?) !!!!

The 205 was Greg Watters on one of our 750's. He was doing shakedowns on the methanol tune and running on an open record.Fastest pass so far with these conditions.
  I ran 186 and 196 on the naked 750 on another open record,mid day salt was better.Tried a late run but could only get 187,lots of wheelspin on all runs.Body going on today and Mick will have a go.

We're down at the south end of the international long course.  Richard Assen's warming his bike (That was his little son on the bike in yesterday's photo, by the way).  Max's liner is sitting over there with a bunch of folks around it, and Don Angel is suiting up and putting on the helmet.  I'll post and get a photo or two.  65F and no wind right now.

Thanks for the updates,
Does anyone know who is running the red and white 125cc streamliner? Any reports on its speed yesterday?
Thanks

Max's bike is away -- and dammit, the batteries in the camera just went dead -- during the send-off. 

Don is building speed - after a bit of drama wandering as he left the line.

Chute is out.  Didn't get through the mesured mile.  Turning off.

Budfab is trying to push start.  Assen is readying to go.  Yesterday's Assen run (189) was slow because of an intermittent in the tether switch -- cutting off and back on during the run.

Don Angel in the Lambky liner is still on the track, not moving -- waiting for him to clear it so they can run Assen and Budfab.

By the way, Richard's son is seven-month-old Luke.  He thanked me for your interest, ladies and gentlemen.  He told me that two years ago they brought their daughter to the salt for their first visit -- so the idea of bringing youngsters continues.  Break 'em in early, hey?

Bob (webelf for us) says he got the run logs from yesterday -- but I haven't yet looked to see if and where he posted 'em.  I'll check -- and if you find 'em on here, let us all know where to look.  I know that Rice Bros. explained that because of course starts and holds -- the sequential run numbers reset to zero a few times -- don't let that stump you when you find 'em.

Assen's on the bike, engine running.  Engine off.  Engine running and he's away.

Measured mile:  226.482   fastest run of the meet so far.

1081   157.423 in the mountain course.

I'm looking for the run logs from yesterday.  And Delvene hasn't sent me the record sheets from yesterday yet.
