does the front end come up when you pull the shoot

chute

No Tom, the weight is already transferring to the front wheel as soon as you shut off,so no chance of lifting the front. its a relatively small canopy, just settles the bike down and takes the edge off the speed, didnt use it on all the runs as sgmp is so long and smooth in the shutdown area.....

For you Tripp

This is Bruce Damewood's bike -- built by Tom Klemme a long time ago - this one will never get tossed off to a Canadian. Proven winning chassis combination.

F u tripp. Lol. Next time you wanna buy something it helps to have something called money

puma power

John Gregory came and visited the shop and was saying something like this is the first Brit powered engine since the hogslayer to win a top fuel event in America. Nice older gentleman just back from the man cup - Boy the stories he has about dragbikes from the past.

I'd bet money! That was a 5 in qualifying also!
