Default My first win against a bike

Someone sent me this vid. This was at the San Antonio track last weekend. The bike was a R6 (I think) with an inexperienced rider. But hey, a win is a win.....2V FTW LOL

I am still working on my launch, far from perfect. I HIGHLY recommend a 2 step for anyone going to the track. It makes launching SO much easier and much more consistent.

Those bikes are FAST. He should easily be in the 11's if not high 10's.

What else do you have done to your rear end? Just some food for thought...my first time at the track with new upper/lower CA's, I got a 1.86 60' and some 1.89's....also I GRENADED my posi and gears. Traction can lead to broken parts.

Eaton posi, I haven't hears of 34 spline axles...did you mean 33's? I would also get a rear end girdle. Are your springs lowering springs or drag springs? If you want an inexpensive track set up that will tranfer weight effectively. Get some Fox body 4cyl front springs and stock GT rear springs, then get Strange adj front struts and rear shocks. Those with some upper/lower CA's, SFC's and the upgrades to your end, you will be well on your way to pulling the front wheels.
