I might join you guys but give the bike a run for the first time. Not sure how I'll go launching though clutch is feeling pretty tired these days. :(

Should be there around 4:30 when the gates open. Racing doesn't start till 6 so you should be right

Thanks for the helmet cliffo!

14.5 was my best run and was the first of the night. bad launch and ran 3rd way too long, should be able to see a 13.8 next time if I'm not retarded. but happy i went.

Not too bad really, was being quite cautious and making sure I didn't release the clutch too quick and slipping it a fair amount.

My last run I tried to launch better, didn't wheelie but ended up spinning the back wheel fishtailing down the track until I backed off. Track felt slippery. Lost a second.

If I could get a good launch and 60ft time, bike should do low 10's, maybe even sub 10.

No worries mate, was good to see the skybanger in action.

Really like your plates too.

My best of the night was a 13.3 @ 101mph with a bit too much wheel spin.
