New personal best through the 1/8th... getting better.

R/T = .510 (.500 base)
60' = 1.55
1/8 = 6.02
MPH = 124





The next night's best run through the 1/4 mile was:

R/T = .111 (zero base)
60' = 1.59
1/8 = 5.99 @ 126mph
E/T = 9.16
MPH = 150

However, we were having significant traction issues... ended up dropping tire pressure to 8.5... it still hazed, but also wasted the clutch.

With a sticky tire, a decent track and a clutch, no doubt the bike has the potential to hit mid 8's.

Spectators can hear it hazing the tire through 5th through the trap
