Mike the difference is Eric's is set up for 300' drags. He was running a 4' over swingarm & wheelie bar. Sandbombers bike is set up for hill shooting. 9' over swingarm & no wheelie bar. Randall was busting the tires off the line on sandbombers bike & spinning alot off the line.

Glenn,
No, I dont have anymore vids with you guys - that footage was from Friday. Next time I take vids I'm going to have someone else in the starting area with a walkie talkie to tell me who is going next! Either that, or I'll have a very good set of binoculars for me. I was fighting my Nikon digicam too - So its possible I missed a few races due to the overexposure problems I was having. I'll probably use the Sony video cam next time - A lot less adjustments to screw up. By the time I reset my exposure control the DS's were pretty much done racing. It wasnt my finest piece of photography thats for sure. Oh well - I'm glad its at least viewable. I'll do better next time.

Not trying to start anything but I wonder how much closer it would have been if TVI was dialed in? What bike did 222 race on the last slip in sandbombers pics? It looks to me like it ran a lot faster but not as close to his dialin. Seeing as how I don't know much about this stuff I'm probably wrong, as usual.
