Doc1647545523 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Absolutely my favorite truck there, and it didn't compete last month: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d178/lt1wagner/Ohio%20Mile%20June%202012/IMG_9800.jpg http://i355.photobucket.com/albums/r445/martyr65/IMG_9806.jpg http://i355.photobucket.com/albums/r445/martyr65/IMG_9923.jpg Just a pity it wasn't running better Saturday. Lots of different vehicles there this time, making it well worth visiting again. July 6-8 will be the next one. And it looks as though they have the staging wait down to perhaps 30-45 minutes. I'm wondering what the brave lil Viewt would run ....... http://i355.photobucket.com/albums/r445/martyr65/emoticons/confused0006.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc1647545523 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 http://www.dragbike.com/dbnews/templates/fast1320_z13.aspx?articleid=7526&zoneid=13 A 73 year old motorcyclist failed to brake, crashed, and was pronounced dead at the scene. Because he rode through the trap and didn't brake, they suspect he had a medical event such as a stroke or m/i. He went through the traps at 170 mph. He went off the end of the runway, and his 2000 Kaw went end-over-end until hitting a fence. He had completed safety qualifying runs earlier and was certified to ride up to 175 mph. He died at 9:15 a.m., and racing was suspended for 4 and a half hours. He died doing what he loved. R.I.P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
