Everything was great, except the wicked headwind. Good to meet you Hooley, congrats on the fast transition to asphalt  :cheers:

The ZX10 ran like a bracket bike, 6 passes between 225 and 228.

Chris,
         That was you pitted next us with your bike?  We sure had a good time and that is what it is all about for us.

Tommy worked for it this weekend, all kinds of gremlins. 244 in the wind was awesome.

One of my favorite pics;
