well this coming saturday will be my first time drag racing my bike. I've been drag racing my chevelle for the last 4 yrs. Now its busa time.

So in preparation to race this saturday I went out of town on a deserted county road and practice launching. I've never gotten on the throttle wide f'ing open in first gear from a stop.

all I can say is daaaaaayyyyyyuuuuuuuummmm!!!!!!!!

I want to get the Busa out..I have to get some dog bones and front straps before I take it out there...
 
well I've been riding dirt bikes since I was a kid and I know how to slip the clutch pretty well off the start. I'm hoping that my first pass is mid to low 10's and into the 9's after a few passes.

If you have been racing drit bikes (holeshot) you are half way there...the rest is shift points and keep the front down...Good luck.
 
See my posts in the RACING(1/4) section for some tips. Just be careful and have fun, that's all that matters even if you do run slow times.

Let us know how you do.
