[QUOTE=Buffalo Bill;1310520]Just dawned on me: You guys burn Methanol? How'd that come about? Is that side by side with gas burners?

Australia and New Zealand allowed Methanol in roadracing classes for many years. In NZ we're allowed it for fourstrokes up to 1989.
Many people on a budget just run gas. At this level of competition the rider ability has more to do with success than power.
Phillip Island of course sees maximum effort - it's a fast track and a big meeting.

Lot's of confidence…

Hey John, really nice bike, and from the looks of that tire, you've got plenty of trust it'll stick!

Thanks Bill, yeah those Michelin Power One's are awesome tires

[Mindless]

I haven't been as agressive on the throttle but the tyres are worn all the way out to the edge, this on my GS.



Dunlop Sportmax Sportsmart are also awesome.

Love the 8 valve!
What are your times with that engine?
Bill

Got as fast as mid 10's in the quarter mile on motor so far. (thanks RapidRay). . . Keep in mind I'm 260 lbs.

Is the front wheel on your '79 gs1000 polished or chrome? It looks great! The whole bike looks GREAT!

Thanks, the front wheel is chrome . . .

Finally got some on track photos from the last Track Day. You'll have to excuse the poor form, still learning, but having fun.

[Buffalo Bill]

Cool, but what track is that?

Hey J, you look OK.
I can't figure out, why would Louisiana have a last track day, except on Dec. 31st?

Thanks Bil, the track is Cresson Motorsports Ranch. It's located a few miles SW of Fort Worth, Tx. There are a couple of track days in Tx. after this one, but this is the last one put on by my buddy Jeff Nash @ Advanced Motor Sports. There are tracks closer (Houston) but they don't have the elevation changes this one does. There is only one track in Louisiana, and it's on the other end of the state from me.
