2:48 pm elim rd #1

r/t .2683 1.29 60' 5.81 1/8th 117mph 9.21 at 142 (other lane red lite)

3:54 pm elim rd #2
dialed 9.20
r/t -.0219 1.29 60' 5.77 1/8th 118mph 9.14 at 146 (other lane red lite 1st)
so to sum it up 4 passes 3 red lites.... wondering if the tail wind had anything to do with it?
Great to see Gene back out on the track again, looking forward to seeing more bike this year.
