While I do race my friends on the street(in rural safe areas) I haven't been on the drag strip for years. I do love racing(no doubt we are all gear heads!) I have raced motocross, go carts, open wheelers, years in stock car racing(ARCA REMAX series). Hell, I'll race a shopping cart

Yes, it is.
Apparently he is trying to find out whether you are into drag racing or if drag racing is into you.
(Which is a much more accurate term.)

No not really a trick question. I was just trying to see how many people in here have similar interest as I do. I will be heading up to VMP in June to race in the Man Cup race up there.

I use to race in the IDBA back in 80s. I ran in the super gas class (9.90) and ET. F&F racing. We were on a tight budget back then but we went all over had a lot of fun. I still have the bike 821100. Very nice rolling chassie. But I stole the engine for my 81E street bike...

Red do still have your CB1100F? I started on Hondas too.
I had my CB1100F running in the mid 9.60's on motor and high 8's on NO2
A search turned up...

I have great diffuculty in deciding which bike to ride. I LOVE my ES. The BIG SIX is just the coolest motor of all time. The 900 sits & it is cbr wheeled, CR carbed, supertrapp etc etc

I always said I could never just watch drag racing without competing in the race. But when I was teaching my son to race I had to give all my attention to him and was unable to race while he raced and I actually enjoyed just watching him learn to race. Now we are going to be a race team. If you look at the photos in my profile you can see how much I like drag racing.

Tell me what you had in that weak 11F motor to make it go so fast.

It had the 1123 pistons, larger stainless valves, big cams, under bucket shims, 36mm RS carbs, VnH sidewinder exhaust, Dyna ing.n coils, lock up clutch, air shifter, about 70hp shot NO2, and chassis work. it was the fastest street legal around here for a long time. I put the fear of Honda in people, It was hard to get a race after people got to know it.

I'm getting re-started in drag racing. I aged out in flat track a long time ago and have kind of gotten out of shape for vintage MX and off road events (although I'm working to shape up and still do some of that) but, the desire to go drag racing has never left me...I did some back in the late 80's and early '90's winning a few trophies on a street bike and was starting to get the ball rolling on building a HD Super modified sportsman bike and got side tracked.
I've recently (after a long search) obtained a hopped up street GS 1100 and will get out to as many events as I can running brackets, learning and improving my bike with the goal to have some fun and maybe move up to an index class eventually.
