Uhhhhh............ sorry oh boosted one. I promise never to speak out of line again. Please spare me the wrath of Ninja Eater. Plus you probably wouldn't want to change the name of your ride to GNT Busa eater. It just don't flow as well.Ok I have to take exception to this one.I have never been behind a Carpenter bike nor do I expect to be soon.
By the way are you guys done slamming each other or you going to go for another few pages.
Texas mile is BACK!!!!!

Listen clown, all I did was ask a question. You got all defensive. I didn't know they give records to bike mechanics, that is what you are right. I always thought your machine is only as fast as YOU can ride it. I'm pretty sure I could get a 145lb pro like keith dennis to run high 8's low 9's on my bike but that don't count where I'm from. I also never claimed to be faster than you either. I could run a modest high 9 on my bike with all stock gearing and suspension/wheelbase. I've never had a GPS but I have had my bike pinned in 6th with a TRE so I'm pretty sure thats close to 200mph. Not tryin' to reinvent the wheel or anyhing I just asked you a question. You need to read the reply and answer accordingly.

so my ? are you going to make it or wuss out?
no long post just a yes or no?
Very common to have bikes built and then have a different rider. Almost all shops will do this from time to time. Also very common to ride your own bike. I know at least 10 shops that do both. Als like you said lots of us have them buildt and then we ride them.
just a point....

Too bad it's a weekend event. For me the trip is 30 hours (about 1500 miles) to either Texas or Utah. For the money, I would probably have to pick Utah between the two, 4 runs isn't enough to justify the trip (yet).
So, for now, I will just stick with Maxton (10 hours 625 miles) where I can fine tune my skills. Also, some riders have run as many as 30-40 runs in a weekend. Good value for the $$. Also, I will not stop until I have run 200 in the production class at Maxton.
Once I have improved my racing technique and bolted on some more go fast goodies, I will head to Texas and give you a run Johhny.
Until then, keep flying low and fast. That is why we buy these things, right?
