Hey Guys,

Even though the car is not quite done yet, I thought I would post a few passes I caught on video the other day. I was making some test runs on my local test strip, when I came upon 2 Honda 929s. We made a few "fun" pulls.
The car has been in the shop for a while getting freshened up. After 3 years of abuse, the head gaskets were leaking pretty bad on both sides, and the bottom end was a bit tired...

I'm still working out some fuel pressure issues on the top end, but will be back out there soon, or I'll go stir crazy!!!! wacko.gif

I ditto that! tongue.gif There's something I noticed, which I hope it's not just me but, it didn't sound as if you were revving as high in this vidy. Or maybe it just wasn't necessary against those bikes?

I've always heard that the big liter bikes are so unbeatable.... What kind of HP would it take to beat a stock Busa from a highway roll?

You are correct, I'm still breaking in the fresh motor, and working on some fuel pressure issues at the top of the RPM band... angry.gif I did not run her up as much as usual, and still pulled these guys pretty good!! drivings.gif

The last details on getting this setup going are killing me right now mad.gif I just want it done so I can get out and put my foot on the floorboars again!!!! pint.gif

Nice vid once again JB. You know, I usually see your car come up on other boards and I always hear, "the bike needs a rider mod" all the time, yet the outcome of your races are always the same. They're just hatin. Your car is rediculously fast. Awesome as always.

You are so right about the rider comment!!! I sometimes get a bit tired of the haters, but since I was not only there, but talked to most of the bikers afterward, I know the truth.... headbang.gif

Thanks guys!!! pint.gif pint.gif

Good luck on gettin the fuel PSI issues worked out JB looks like the fresh engine is workin gud 4 ya.
Being a guy who gave up bikes and went to vettes (so I might live a lot longer) it has to be the ultimate pisser as a biker to have your lunch handed to ya by any 4 wheeler esp a vette no doubt. Even so no gud reason 4 becomin a hater just because...but sum fellers just don't deal well with reality so they turn to hate cuz it makes the pain less by hatin da "MAN IN THAT DAMN FAST VETTE---MR JB"...LOL

FROM THE URBAN DICTIONARY

1. hater
A person that simply cannot be happy for another person's success. So rather than be happy they make a point of exposing a flaw in that person.

Hating, the result of being a hater, is not exactly jealousy. The hater doesnt really want to be the person he or she hates, rather the hater wants to knock somelse down a notch.

2. hater
Overused word that people like to use just because someone else expresses a dislike for a certain individual.

3. Hater
A person who feels anger and/or jealousy for someone who has succeeded in something they have worked hard for.
A being who speaks badly,and/or takes negative actions in attempt to create problems for a successful person.

CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS THERE IS EVEN A SITE TO DIRECT HATERS TO HATE SITES....."A LOVE FEST OF HATE"

What are your pet peeves? What do you really hate? Whether it's Microsoft or Britney Spears, you'd enjoy it if there was a place on the Web to find others who hate the same thing you do, so you can have a real love fest of hate. That's what haters.info was set up for -- to provide logical addresses for sites for haters of anything -- addresses of the form microsoft.haters.info. They can be set up to redirect to URLs anywhere. And I'm providing them as a free service to qualifying sites. I'm doing it as a hobby, not a business, so I don't have any corporate stuffed suits or marketing types around to insist that the right demographics be targeted or anything, so I can just do whatever the heck I want, and I have a day job to pay my bills... This means that I can give out these addresses to sites I think deserve it, rather than trying to manipulate things to make a buck off of them. http://www.haters.info/

LIVE IS WAY TO SHORT FOR ALL THIS HATE SO I SAY.....
