            I would vote for Jake with his old GS, but he's not on the list. That 6.00 would be hard to beat and he does a lot of ET racing in the 1/8th.

            Is this a balls to the walls heads up, first guy to the end takes all?

              yes it will be heads up no "dialing in" first to the finish wins on paper its a dead heat , jethros bike is lighter and will have more HP at the rear wheel. I am lighter than jethro and I have more track experience thus equalizing the weight and power adavntage...................should be fun...........................and yes .Jake would kick both of are @sses:-D

                Being a Suzuki man thru and thru, I had no choice but to vote for the underdog.

                Is there no one else with a hopped up GS street bike willing to take the two of you on?

                  Luke spends a lot of time at the track and will be there. His 1100E is lightly hopped up, unless he has had a busier winter than I have heard.

                  I know this is a GS forum, and neither Skip or I are gonna be on Suzuki, but our bikes are a good match on paper- equal riders would likely be pretty close... unfortunately I have far less experience on the strip, but I'm not letting that discourage me! :twisted:

                    But don't you OWN 2 Suzuki GS1100's.
                    Even one of those infamous 1983 Silver w/black motor 1100E's.:shock: \\/
