A company very well known around here has some lowering straps for 21 bucks... I'm going to have to order one friday...

what was your tire pressure? did you lower it or forget to cause that could be some extra speed right there

 

I left it normal, I rode it there and unless the worst woulda happened planned on riding it home. I didn't forget about lowering it, just like a big smokey burnout each run I chose not to do it. Would dropping the pressure help to keep the front tire down? I didn't have an issue hooking up on any of the passes...

 

I'm sure that Ricky Gadson can get these bikes in the 9 second quarter mile time. He did an R6 in the 9's. BleedGreen, your friend may have been doing that 9.8 time in the 1/8th mile.
