Going to the track for the first time
I stoked! ... But very nervous!
What do you think ill run? Any tips/suggestions or anything I should look out for?
I am going to be honest.... I can't burnout is that going to be a big deal other than the fact ill look like a newbie? I hope to run at least high 11s by the end of the day. I have been to the track before but it was in my Camaro, so I know how things operate but not on a bike. My buddy is taking his 05 RR and he has gone multipul times.
Wish me luck! Ill post up times tomorrow night when I get back! Gates open at 5pm tomorrow.
Bike mods are, +2 rear sprocket, k&n filter, two bros slip on. Not sure about jetting or not.

I just did ArmDrop last weekend, its put on by the Pinks dude. It was super hot and I havent been to the track in a few years. 92 F2 25,xxx miles, Yoshi slip on and properly jetted, down one on the front, 3 yr old road race rock hard tire in the rear. Didnt (cant) burn out. Ran very constistant 12.1's. A few years ago when I went weeks in a row, 11.4's were easy with my best pass an 11.2 at 119.7, so damn close to a 10.xx at 120! I still think that is attainable. See if I can attach a photo.
Great vid!
A bit slow start thou. Sounded like you almost chocked the engine with too few revs, or even started at 2nd gear (which im sure you didnt
)
Improve on that start and you'll have an 11 sec run easy!

Thanks!
I was slipping the clutch as quick as possible at 7k.
I sure hope so, I want this old girl to be in the 11s!
As of today, I shortend my pipe about 5 inches. Not sure it will do anything but it should look a ton better!
