Man I ain't trying to go there...And get my feelings hurt...I ain't no pro...And have no desire to be just having fun...
Hey Stunnah I can't do what the pro's do or even your average Joe! This was merely a way to compare yourself, A measuring stick nothing more! Sometimes nowing what can be done helps to improve what has been done. Keep on dragging.

I just did a radio promotion at a Dragway in Douglas Georgia. After running 3 times in my Radio Van (a Chevy Astro Van; see pic) I was satisfied with a 10.52. I was so pumped up - outrunning the cross town rival's van, and it was my first drag on a real track - I asked the owner of the track if I could make a run with my 'Busa. After checking out my race suit and looking at my bike like it was something from outer-space, he agreed. It's a bone stock 02' silver/grey. On the first run I pulled a 7.02 and on the second a 6.76 - not bad I thought considering I was a drag track virgin.
My times are starting to go down...Ran a 6.71 was really happy with that...They should continue to go down the more I get to the track...Hoping to get in the 6.5 range...I weigh 250 buck naked so I think that would be a good run for me...

the most i can say is that you have to become one with your Busa but the thing that has helped me the most is i use to race MX in my early teens but i had to quit while i could still walk i am almost 20 now and i walk with a mild limp some time but most i can say is learn your bike and twist on that MFr oh yea i leave the line at around 10k and baby the clutch but am all the way out on it by the 60' mark.:kick:
