Went racing again at St Thomas Dragway. Must have put 15 to 20 passes on the old Connie. Beat everything I raced, so wanted to go up against something I knew could beat me.
Raced a Dodge TRX with the Hellcat motor. Beat him on the first 2 passes, but jumped the light by a split second. So raced one more time…
Went a third time and beat him handily! His truck was too hot and his launch control didn’t kick in… All well, a win’s a win! Not bad for a 34 year old 700lb bike!
Unfortunately that last pass blew up the clutch… Seems I blow something up every year doing this! lol.
Tearing the old girl down this week for a clutch rebuild and some upgrades to 2002 from a parts bike.Congrats on the new quad! Looks awesome!
I love the reclaimed wood bar! I’ve been doing all kinds of stuff with reclaimed wood lately!
How many guys can say their woman did this – she didn’t need my help at all. (Mind you, this is what she does for a living)!
Thought I should post this first big ride of the year selfie here – rode to Dover March 21st! Not many other bikes on the road.
