Went to the track yesterday

[Ludicrous Speed]

Went to our local track today and ran for the second time this year.

I have an 04 Busa, completely stock except geared 16-43, lowered 2" in back, strapped front, shinko and an airshifter. Stock pipes and original air cleaner. I weigh approximately 270-275 suited (250 naked)

Until today, my best 1/8th mile time was a 6.44. Don't recall any of the particulars. I have never gotten better than a 1.64 60' time. Today, I went:

60' 1.515
594' 5.929
1/8 6.315
mph 116

Now, I know the mph at our track is typically fast, and I was hesitant to belive that I actually went that fast, but my friend went a 6.52 and was right behind me by a couple bikes with almost identical reactions. The track has no 330' timers.....

Made another pass and slipped to a 1.68 60' and ran 6.49. Back to normal.

Then I ran again and felt like I had a really good launch. This time I about pooped myself.

60' 1.467
594 5.870
1/8 6.251
mph 118



Finally a great pass!!!!!! (for me at least)

Those are really good 1/8 times! You 60's are very good too. Would like to see what your bike would run in a 1/4.

Great short times, I'd love to run 1.50's in the 60ft. My best is a 1.58 but usually stay around 1.64 or so. Trap MPH can be decieving, last night i ran a 6.32 @ 121mph then a 6.21 at 119. It all seems to start in the first 60ft for me.
