TOPIC: All day test & tune at the Sturgis 1/8 mile

Re: All day test & tune at the Sturgis 1/8 mile 1 year 2 weeks ago #11

George, If you could trailer it to the track we could dump my ecu into it and run both bikes. Just not against each other. That or bring your 17 inch rim with you and run it on my bike. :clap:

I probably won't get back from Sioux Falls trip until about 2am Sun so may arrive a little later in the day.

Have a long trip starting the 16th that will keep me away until early June! Hope u can be up and running before I leave.

Turned out to be a really good day even though I didn't ride my VMAX. Last year I went to several street legals and raced the last 3 or 4 weekends. My best pass was a 6.67 with a 1.63 60 ft. Maxout let me take his VMAX down the track 3 times. First pass wasn't recorded, something with the lights. Second pass was a 6.88 and my last pass was a 6.62 with a 1.72 60 ft. The new flash, Brocks and shinko really did the trick. I know if I could have made more passes I could have ran in the 6.50's easily. Our bikes are set up a little different and I wasn't 100% comfortable riding someone elses bike down the track. I can't believe how strong his bike pulls. Can't wait for the reflash and Brocks to show up. Street legals and races next weekend!

Reading as you wer a bit uncomfortable for it being someone else's bike you improved considerably after just 2 runs! Great result.

Really have the race bug now, huh? :winkwink:

Good solid runs guys that Brock V 2 really pulls wish you guys had a 1/4 mile track up there the second half is even better
with a 1.63 60 you would be running 9's for sure

Those are outstanding runs/times! :clap:

I believe that track is almost 3500 ft above sea level. Significant power loss at that altitude.

Probably looking at high 6.30's at sea level.

Thanks everyone! I'm suprised Maxout hasn't posted anything. He also made his best pass to date, 6.70 and can't remember his 60 ft. I do have the racing bug. I paid my track membership back in Feb. and the season starts this weekend. Still waiting on the ecu. I hope it shows before Sat.

KAHUNAS you should come out. There are usually a couple of sleds there. Last year a guy came from North Dakota with a turbo sled. I can't remember what it ran but he said he had 30 grand into it.
