Ahh, I found this neglected blog

And so I decided to update it. Maybe I should just overhaul it. I have been to El Mirage and discovered their is more to this than just having a fast bike. It took 2 trips just to please (?) the Tech Inspector. And I am not sure about that entirely. He doesn't like my tires, doesn't like my steering stabilizer and thought my airbox modifications were questionable. Suffice it to say, I have been disappointed but not washed out.
I have started a new bike, but will still run my Superglide. More work, more study and just maybe I can nab a record.
I have gotten myself a nearly useless (by my standards) left arm and hand in an accident at work. June brought my first surgery to correct the damage, Aug. another for my hand, and I am still working at getting full use of both. Let me caution any of you possibly needing rotator cuff surgery... get a second opinion! Perhaps a third.
Anyway, this stuff was just to be posting something about my quest for speed, it may be a bit delayed but not shelved just yet.
