a day of drag racing...CANADIAN STYLE

[rubbersidedown]

we dont have any paved roads...and we haven't learned how to make concrete yet...so, we have to race in the dirt. Actually its more like sand.

We go out, find a chunk a dirt that nobody's usin, and just build a fuggin' race track.


if you could remain in your seats,and hold questions and comments till the end of the show (30 pics) that'll speed the process up.

 

[rubbersidedown]

so...here we go...here's the track 300 feet long.

300 feet of crushed rock and sand.

Some of the boys (an' girls) will fly dowm that 300 feet in UNDER 4 SECONDS.

Not bad for a bunch of hillbillies EH?

In this first pick its early in the day,just before qualifing...

See the da house mouse and our lil Ripper.

...so, here we are. 3-2-1...launch...

this is my friend Jim. He owns the shop that Rubbah helps out at, and frequents the most.

Jimmy was FIRST RUNNER-UP today.

or as he likes to put it... FIRST LOSER.

He came in second. Wicked reaction times,one red-light all day... a personal best of 4.4 seconds.

Thats on a naturally aspirated STOCK 1100 GSXR motor.

He usually kicks all of them.


Lets watch him dance....
