I took it out for doordash to shake it down and it was great felt like a new bike new forks new belt new brake pads. I was just casually riding down the bike lane on my way home and that happened. :( This is the 3rd belt I've broken so far, this was some no name brand belt I got from Luna Cycle so never again... Funny thing is I thought hey it's still early I can throw the bike on the trailer and head to Sonoma. But then I realized nah I still have to charge the bike no time for that. But the bike ain't going anywhere :(
 
Congrats on making it to the final Joe! Hopefully I'll get my bike sorted soon.

Thanks, we had another big field, 17 bikes. I was up and down. I took Eric out and then Doug before the finals. In the finals, I was just off at the start and the bike slowed down and it cost me.

Late update from 5-12-21 drags. Another big bike count (20). We had a late start due to track rental on the road course (drag racers forced to sit and wait for them to finish) and a good headwind the entire day. Doug Love won AGAIN in a double breakout finals. We had Dirt bikes, Harleys, cruisers, electric bike and sport bikes show up. 2 female riders also. Next race day will be May 26.

There's plenty of time left for you to catch him though.
I'm pulling for you, man. :ride

Gotcha.....and I'm glad we have someone representing the softer side of our species out there. I'm surprised my daughter didn't give me a heads-up on that. :laughing
 
I'll post a video later but the bike ran great not fast but that's because of the wind. Ran 18.3 18.2 18.2. So I figured out shiet I'm dialed in so I dial an 18.15 havn't hit 18.1 all night sure enough I hit 18.105 and break out haha. I also let off at the end so I might have been about to do a 17s pass. So whatever happened the bike got faster I even had a little wheelie, I have no idea what happened the bracket drag racing gods were not smiling on me that night... but yeah 1st round loss I broke out and Bill didn't break out.
 
Kinda late but here is my race report video from last weeks race, hopefully do better next week. Shoulda been more conservative with my dial in =/

Arrival time around 2:30 or even a little earlier will ensure you will be ready to go on time.
 
Tonight's Wednesday Night Drags have been CANCELLED due to unforeseen maintenance.

Wednesday Night Drags will resume on Wednesday, June 9th.
 
Derp I was just about ready to load up Subway sandwich all ready to go and I realize its still too early to load up and so I sit down on the couch and check facebook out then I see they cancelled WND =( guess I'd better go work then

First I've seen WND cancelled besides rain, smoke, or deadly virus.

Glad you saw it and didn't make the trip for nothing.
 
Drag racing tonight!
 
Am finally planning to go tonight for the practice runs bringing a new riding friend. Is tech open from 4-7pm or do they close it at a certain time? We plan to reach the gates by 4pm.

If you get there at 4pm that's too late, you will miss some of the practice runs waiting for tech. Racing starts at 4pm. Get there around 2:30-3pm to be sure you are all teched and ready to go by 4. There will be a line.
