I found out the hard way tonight that you now have to have a chain guard to drag your bike. 80 round trip for nothing.

Just FYI.

Hey Jeremy, I saw somebody not able to run Sunday because of that. I go every Funday Sunday if you wanna hook up next time, I ran some consistent 11.40s Sunday, beat an FZ1 by about 4 tenths, and scared the crap out of a CBR1000RR, I told him he was gonna be looking at tail lights for a while, he just laughed, he didn't catch me till about 50 feet from the finish line,

This Friday? Nah. 1) my bike's in pieces getting repainted 2) it doesn't run right anyway and needs work but most importantly 3) The Daytona 200 is on Friday night at 8pm! I'll be there my friend.

I am DONE with drag racing. I'm terrible at it and it's embarrasing. I would rather save my clutch life for a track day anyway. It was fun while it lasted but I just suck too bad at it.
Last time I was so nervous I stalled out and ended up running a 15.2@115. lol

Thanks for the offer though.
