    Drag Race Question - Reaction Time

    I saw a video today of a 2016 Camaro that cranked out a 10.6 in the 1/4 mile. That's pretty good, but it appeared to me that the driver was sleeping at the light with .912 reaction time. I made a comment about that on another forum, and someone replied that the reaction time has no effect on ET...

    Kawasaki ZL 900 Time

    I was youtubing and came across this. There's always talk of V65's and Eliminators against the Vmax so I thought I'd post. I had an 85 Eliminator but never took it to the drags. I raced my Vmax and my personal best was 11.24. I'm around 200lb and not even close to A dale walker rider...

    May be time to quiet the bike down a bit.

    So I have a Kerker exhaust on the bike and I absolutely love it! The sound is awesome and it's loud! Problem is my dad REALLY dislikes how loud it is and some of my neighbors aren't too fond of it either. So are there any mufflers that keep that same lovely sound and just tone it down...

    The Supreme Court got it right this time

    Supreme Court decisions. Two biggies. Obamacare is here to stay. Now maybe the Republicans can move on to the Jobs agenda that they promised in 2013. Plus same sex marriage is now the law of the land. People can marry who they want, not who some politicians say they can, based on some...

    First time out on the 1988

    All stock down to the original spark plugs..... and then I smoked the clutches lol.... I am sure there is a 11.4x in it easily. If I strap the front maybe even an 11.30. I bet if I take off those heavy stock mufflers, and get the bog and pop out of the carbs it would be another 11.00...

    Inspection Time - (Funny)

    I am accomplishing the Hungarian registration process for my recently purchased 1999 V-Max. A requirement is to have an "originality" inspection done to ensure it's not stolen, etc. So I brought it to the local (auto) shop that does this. They pushed my bike into the service area and fired it...

    It was time
