State Capitol Records broken

We had a great night for the 4strokes. Fist on behalf of Top Secret Racing I would like to thank( Tim Barker )for providing an amazing powerplant for our Raptor.We were able to get 4.2's on all motor (still in tuning stages).NO power adders.With this being the first time to run with a timing system.I will throw the guantlet for anyone to challange that at that track.Power adder(s) are being considerd for it though.
Now on to the power added 4 strokes. This is from what I witnessed.There could have been even faster times but I didn't see them.
First(slower or bad passes omitted) Finishline ran a 4.18 with Dax running a 4.17. Just a few minutes Later Dax ran a 4.070. I did hear a pop towards the end of his pass and his MPH was lower than what he had been running so its truly possible that its capable of going faster yet!
We had a great time and we were happy to get to test our project (Top Secret) raptor. Again BIG thanks Tim!
Sorry guys I know this is a Can Am forum but there werent any of you fast guys there.
Yes there are GUARD BEAMS AND THEY WORK. And NO we did not get the track owner to sign the slips.

I want to say first and foremost, CONGRATULATIONS TOP SECRET RACING, FINISHLINE RACING AND DAX DEROEN.
It seems the times were just a little slower at the Clash of the Titans even though we did not have guard beams installed. It makes perfect sense that the times run at the Clash are pretty consistent with what was run at State Capitol (a track with guard beams).
Again, VERY GOOD JOB GUYS!
I can hardly wait to see what kind of times I will pull on that same track.

State Capitol's track is one of the best around, the ET/MPH scoreboard is great for spectators and made for a great night of racing.

Yeah we are just now figuring it out, the track was pretty sticky and made the bike a little hard to handle and our rider is new to Raptors. Even on the roughest of runs it went 4.4s bouncing down the track. The build on this bike has taken a year with all of us putting money and thought into it. So to say we were happy is a understatement. We know once we put it on the spray, the setup will change but we are glad to have it out and running. There is five of us in on this bike with Tim, Chris and Scholle putting most of the sweat equity into it. So alot of the credit goes to those guys. Also big props to Little Stell for doing an awesome job getting adjusted to and piloting this bike. And me and Big Stell had fun watching it run.

Congratulations on the times![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I look forward to seeing those bikes run on the same track with the top DS's at Planet Sand in April............
