That's funny, well Noonan it wasn't yours was it?

[landsendlynda]

Must have been, I haven't heard from him all day.  He was supposed to call me this morning after his runs...sigh...another phone bites the dust!   

Guess it's up to you, bvillercr, to give us updates!!  I'm sure John is well into his beef stew and libations by now!!

p.s. won't be home tomorrow, so won't be able to update then either!

Bike stuff heard through the grapevine (and you know how the grapes can distort things) so take the info for what it is.  Noonan shut down early on the sidecar 89mph, later went 211 on the naked bike (m/c top speed thus far), Pat Womack also ran 211 naked, just a tick off Noonans pace.  Shane San Miguel ran a personal best 198.7 mph in 1350 PP.  Shane Stubbs was taking care of license passes he will stretch it's legs in the A.M.   Was wondering how Scott Stites ran.  Anyone?

Don't know about Scott Stites, but Dr. Jeanie Pflum also set a record today on Jamie Wagner's M/C at 190 MPH on a 186MPH record.

Scott Stites ran 182.763 on his first pass with a short shift to 6th. He ran 185.522 on the second pass with what he thinks is a clutch that is going bad. He thinks there is more speed in it if he can lay down a good run.

[John Noonan]

OK we have been busy..here is what I know..

Stites ran 185 and was ready to pack it in with a hurt clutch, we looked and it was only a broken sprocket cover so I had a spare to loan.  He will try for a better speed tomorrow.

Cathy Butler ran about 177 on her second pass for a new record on her 599cc Honda all motor. 

We had a dead battery on the side car and could not keep it lit so after a battery charging we ran 184+ on the 187 record we ran last meet.

Our open bike ran 211+ and was top speed for the meet (bikes) on our naked bike until Pat Womack ran a stellar 223.3 on his faired Turbo Busa.  We were on a great run until we hit sixth and killed a tire so Scott took me to the local shop for a replacement.

Fireman Jim running under the "Moreland Noonan Spyke" entry ran a phenomenal record speed of 192 + mph on the Waters, Higgins, Award GSXR 750.

Buddenbaum/fabrication/Budfab streamliner set yet another record at 117 from what Michelle said.

All for now as I have to go look for my phone..

Good luck to all the racers tomorrow.

Forgot to mention that Freud here!  ! ! Awesome!

We were pleasantly surprised to see Tonya Turk as well, she was being followed by some guy (very closely) with a diet Coke can in his hand   

Jill Iverson ran 107 on her bike and also got a record, she is also running for the SCTA points championship as we are with the sidecar.

Found my phone on the charger..

[hayaboosta]

Success on Sunday John!   Thanks for the update. 

[bvillercr]

Noonan just went 212, David Freighburger(sp) Hot Rod special camaro went 193 for the second time today.

[bvillercr]

Noonan just went 215.680 naked.

[Seldom Seen Slim]

Thanks for the updates, Mr. Bvillercr (whose name I can't remember right now or I'd thank you by name).  I, and many of the regulars (heck, visitors, too) appreciate the updates.  Ask if you can get the run logs and, if so, send 'em to me and I'll post.  I know that Dan Warner will send me a write-up eventually, but if you see him -- tell him I'm looking forward to it (and thank him for his stuff, too).

Back to outdoor chores for me.  Winter's coming soon!

Is Kent's electrobike there?
