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.

I guess I will add some stuff after all.

I was doing some research and needed a little inspiration, "cubic dollars" is not the only answer! (but it sure as hell helps!) Arfons has always been one of my inspirations, Breedlove follows and the first time I heard of the World of Speed Trials it was on an old black and white television show called "You Asked For It!"that ran a film of the crash of Dennis Campbells boat while trying for a record on water. Campbell was the man that always kept the thought of going faster than anyone else in the world in my mind. The ones that followed continue to give me inspiration.
