Default 1/4 Year before last

I was on my '92 GSXR750, my bro on his '94 900RR, I beat him off the line and down the track for the win, his top speed was better than mine at 121 where as I was at 114 or 116. That was fun, but the track shut him down after that for not having full leathers and breaking 120.
So I proceded to work on my start off the line, 1/4 speed and top speed. Ended up pulling a 10 wheelie, setting down and popping up again (about a 4) just before it was down all the way and flew down the track like a mo'fo'. My overall time dropped on that one, but it was good.


Hoping to track my '96 900RR this year and see if I can better my .036 reaction time.

He must have been asleep at the light 'cause based on the MPH he probably ran a high 10 (10:90s) and you probably ran a high 11 (11:80+)

A bad rider at the launch can easily pilot a bike to 120mph and only run a 11.50, while a good rider that can launch in the 1.7 60' could beat him with a mid 11 at fewer mph.
