8/17 Drags at IDR

[HandoEX]

Wow, what an awesome day at the track! Tons of cars, tons of bikes. I thought the track prep was the best I've ever seen out there on a street legal day. Some rides that really stuck out to me...

-The green/gold deisel full size with the topper running low 12s. Damn, I didn't expect that!

-Dave H. launching the front end of the Supra into the stratosphere Btw, I think there were passengers in the Boost Werx cars on their last pass of the day. How does one go about getting a ride down the track?:lol:

-The boosted 4 door BMW that left early. Beautiful car! Same with the black STi running low 11s

-Another 10 second street car as Christian's white stang ran a 10.

-There were quite a few new bikes out too but most new bikes were cruisers. IIRC, someone ran a low, low 11 on a cruiser and I think I saw a GSXR1000 run a 9.85 (don't know anything about that bike).

Overall, it was an awesome way to round out an awesome weekend! Thanks to IDR, Tintmasters and everyone else that made it happen.

On a side note, I destroyed the clutch on my 919 on the last run of the day and had to limp home at 25-30 mph on the back roads. Ugh.

3. But i got a new personal low...so i was happy...

1. The blurr that got so high, the fargo radar picked it up!

I thought the track prep was the best I've seen it in a long time. I got two 8 sec passes on a street drag day....crazy. They weren't even scarry passes either. We both had passengers on the third pass. It was nice that Ron let us do that. Only rules was they had to have helmets, fire jackets on and we were only allowed to run through first. I still ran an 11.80 just coasting...hilarious.

We need to take some air out of Dave's car with the 4 link or wheelie bar or both. Unless Dave wants to enter some wheelie competitions.

That was Charlie McCann's GSXR 1000 that Dale Anderson was running when it went 9.85

It was cool that the track let us take passengers out, I cut a 1.28 60' with my boss in the passenger seat!
