Fred, I'll be at the mini storage business with customers this Saturday, but other than that -- feel free to send stuff to me to post if you get too busy or involved.  Or go ahead and do the expected great job of letting us know what's going on.

Best wishes for a fun and SAFE time for all.

Only thing I have heard, as about noon, Karl(Entropy) is the only one over 200mph. Bocking a pretty good headwind.

Well shinola, I was hoping for a tailwind.

But Karl breaking 200 into it sounds hopeful for him, not bad for the TFA CEO sucking air and burning gas.

TeamFatAzero is having a ball!!!

yesterday until 2-3-ish, wind was 5-7 mostly right on the nose; i was happy w/202.6; Guy Caputo was happy with 207-8 on motor, Gen 2 Busa folk not so happy w/188-195 (california kid = bill)

TrickTom running 230's, Bill warner 240's, both doing shakedown/tuning passes
bright sun, wall to wall blue sky.

Guy Caputo (Tiger Racing) and his Norwegian bud, T(Texas gumbo champ), are setting new standards for trackside hospitality.  Thu night = 10gallons of seafood bisque, last night = margaritaville, tonight = a dang huge witch's caldron of chili.  TeamFatAzero now considers Guy & T our patron saints. :cheers:

Wow, Guy never cooks like that for us at Maxton! Maybe he's trying to slow/weight them all down!  :-D

Good luck all & stay safe!

WTG Karl, Tiger, Tom, Bill, et al. Good luck today, may the wind be at your backs.

Bill Warner 240s?  Is he riding someone else's bike? Thought he was out for this year, that rocks  :cheers:

Tom "Trick Tom' Gates just posted a
261.5 ++ MPH in the mile at Goliad Texas

This breaks the track record, and qualifies Tom for membership
in The Motorcycle 250 MPH Record Club.

The 261+ MPH is the best motorcycle speed in the mile
in the world, including streamliners.

(It's just that simple)

The SCOTT GUTHRIE RACING team
all send their best to the new:

TEXAS TRACK RECORD HOLDER,
and the
FASTEST TEXAN IN TEXAS !
