Had a great time as usual in Daytona. Here are some races from the airport "run what you brung drags". I was happy with how my bike ran. Just need to add an air shifter now. Anyone selling one?

Great videos. Your bud, the "announcer", is a goof - funny stuff.

Try holeshot.com for the shifter.

They set up an almost 1/4 mile track at the airport in Deland(20 min from Daytona) every Bike Week and Biketoberfest. Not much of a shut down area, so when you cross the line, you're on the brakes hard. It's just heads up racing. Two guys at the end of the track with flags tell you who won. The lights on the tree are each on a switch operated by a guy sitting on a cooler. It's always alot of fun. Not much of a turn out that day. Cooler weather and lower event attendence probably contributed to that.

That's what it is, Bacchus. ZRX1200. Haven't had it on a true drag strip yet to see actual times. Soon. Looking for an air shifter for it.
