Got-Boost? Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 I'm sure you guys heard the KP/LMR 263mph Camaro crashed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fubar231 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Awesome photos, that bmw 1000rr is sexy as hell. Did you make any passes? Whatd you run? Also how come some bikes are stretched like crazy and some arnt, i thought for the mile events you didnt want a ridiculously long swingarm.

Got-Boost? Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 I had a few things happen but overall can't complain it was a GREAT weekend! Saturday first shakedown pass (very low boost): The start was SLOOOOOOW! VIDEO: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10151510459089162 Second pass felt great but about the 3/4 mark I felt something hit my leg and let up, coasting through the traps... Second pass: On this run my lower fairings disintegrated somewhere around 220mph... Taped it up and decided to run "half naked" on Sunday and turned up the boost a little! :gabe: Now I was fighting wheelies in 1st-4th gear and spinning in 5th/6th at STOCK wheelbase low boost-2nd setting... Third pass: Fourth pass: At this point, I more than met my goal of 220+ for the low boost setting and was happy to have a SAFE and FUN weekend so packed up and headed home. I've got a LOT left on the table but I'll save it for another day. Was a GREAT weekend to be back racing! :fuckyeah: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also how come some bikes are stretched like crazy and some arnt, i thought for the mile events you didnt want a ridiculously long swingarm. That is Valerie Thompson on her sponsored BMW, she went 212mph for a new 1000cc record! You don't want them crazy stretched but most people think they can hook out here like at the "prepped" dragstrip and it doesn't happen. It's all a learning experience and everyone has an idea of what's fast or will be fast..lol. Some would also rather have wheel-spin over wheelies at 180+, I like a little of both...

Thats awesome she set a record, and i dont know about wheelspin at 180.... i feel like a wheelie would be easier to maintain. Are there any pics of your bike posted up above? Except for the very first pic thats nearly all black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got-Boost? Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Honestly I was racing and taking pics of others, don't think I have any of myself. I'll see what I can find online.. *EDIT*... From Gearheadflicks... (First run on Saturday before the fairings failed) (First run on Sunday, half naked) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
