The King of the Shootout was Bill Warner with his "NAKED" Busa at 254 MPH!!!
Bill is a nice guy and very sharp, he has a lot going on on his bike and his head. He's smooth operater that's very precise to detail and data. After his 254 run I asked him what he was going to do next and he said, "I'm done for today, I'm going to go study all my data and look things over so that I don't get ahead of myself." I was very impressed, most people, including myself would have been caught up in the moment and wanted to turn it up and run again. He's making baby steps and will continue to progress with his "Science Project", as he called it. Hats of to you Bill, this was a huge accomplishment :thumb:
Ben Beckert ran 252 MPH on his Busa coming up a hair short, but made lots of progress!
There was no one that wanted to run in the Nitrous class, lots of broke bikes Friday.
The all motor Shootout winner was Karl Gunter aka Entrophy(Team Fat Ass C.E.O.) on his ZX-12. Karl has a lot of knowledge of his ZX-12, I think he's done everything there is to do to one, and if he hasn't Bill Meyer has. Karl hurt his motor Friday, left his wife at the track, grabbed Mr. Meyer and they went to Karl's, pulled the motor, built another one, installed it and were at the track before I was Saturday morning. Karl went 208 MPH winning the N/A Shootout!
Mike Hooks and Bob Sellers both ran 206 MPH and change.
