Whenever I've been out to the 1/4-mile track, every time I go through the trap, my speedo says around 105...but the time slip says 95.

I've had it pegged out when I was CATCHING UP TO Becca!!  ;)

Where is this 1/4 mile track?  Does it have a name, or address or web site? I get over to Houston/Woodlands area on a regular basis and would be interested in checking it out.

What was your best time on the Suzuki?

I never bought full leathers so I couldn't run it.  I definitely would have if I had the gear.

It's www.houstonraceway.com, located in Baytown.  We have fun running against each other and watching the cars & trucks run, too.  Most Friday nights they have the "friendly" races, but it's been awhile since I've been out there.

Thanks, sounds like fun,  I'll have to check it out when it warms up a bit.

I believe my best run ever was 13.69, and no other 1300 has beaten that time that I've run against.  There's one crazy Costa Rican on this board that beat me down the track a couple of times, but I whooped his shiney hiney down there once...and his times were still slower.  ;)

The 1800s that have run out there are getting around the 12.6 range, so we 1300 riders are only slower by about a second...at least I AM!!

There's an 1/8-mile track that I'd love to get on & race an 1800...the time difference would not be as big as on the 1/4-mile times.  Shoot, if I caught 'em sleeping at the light, I might actually take 'em.  O0

Oh Becca...where are you? 8)

Here I am sucka!!! Whatcha want??? ;D ;D ;D

Who gives a !@#$ who's correct on the speed or not, just as long as you can smoke the next Harley that rolls up next to you. ;D
