Default 300ft times...

I always give people a hard time about not posting their times, so I thought I would put a few numbers out there and see if anyone else wanted to share. Especially since we didn't get to line any bikes up at Aledo or KY!!!

I ran this weekend at Fairplane WV and was running 4.8-4.9 off the bottle and 4.5-4.7 on the bottle. I still have a few tenths to gain on the bottle I think. I'm not going to be happy until I get in the low 4's.

Later,
Mike

Thats moving on down the track pretty quickly.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

I went 80 in the 1/8th (at 8.4[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] ) with carb and traction problems. I'm working on them....its only money right. lol
I want to end up at 7.5 this year, before I go back into the motor.

6.24 in the sand with a piped and filtered raptor. A bored and built zilla running drag pipes ran a 5.3 here to give you a reference. The fastest banshee with an actual banshee engine ran 3.4 . Track record is 3.1 with a sand dragster.

I know what you mean RaptorMan! I now need new tires, at 125 a peice, and possibly a new metering rod for my carb (like jets), at 50 for one. The ole'' lady doesn't like that either. Plus I would like to get a tach/egt/shift light ASAP, but she doesn't know about that yet. lol
I can tell you what tires NOT to get.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I think anything under a 5 on a four stroke is pretty quick, and under a 4.4 is flying....for 300 feet anyway. Take about .5 off that for a two smoke.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
