I think its 10 to get in and 5 to run.

Ehhhh u thought I paid 15 to race and 5 to get in last time. CASH ONLY

that maybe true

its 10 in and 10 to run

Yea 10 and 10. As for the kid thing I will have my wife and all the kids there. If they get to bored then we can put a movie on in the van. As for what time I was going to leave my house at around 8 I think but I can make changes as needed.

I am guessing that some of us are meeting at the Cabellas but what time are we doing that... 9? Also is anyone wanting to meet at Sonic or whatever to ride to Cabellas?

K cool I'll bring a $20

you might wanna bring more for water and stuff.

The wife might not be staying very late.... not sure yet still talking about it. I might head out earlier and meet yall at the track. Kinda depends. Fireblade .... call me either way. My wife said she is cool with an extra kid at the house if she don't go and if she does then there is an extra seat in the van when the wife leaves.

So the guys(BMW 1000rr) if your running wheelie/traction control I consider that an unfair fight(already is anyways motor wise). I really wouldn't even have a chance if y'all do.

Need I remind you I'm undefeated champ

Wheelie/traction control can actually hurt us in a drag race. It might step in when not needed and cut our throttle. I will have to see how it does. Miles you are gonna run the bike right? There is no reason not to finish off your tire.... and if you want I will bring the extras I have so you can swap them lol.

Thanks DD!! I'll find out what Melinda has planned and let you know. I'll be trying the bike in all the different mode, just to see what its like, plus I'll turn it off to see what happens. On the BMW's you don't get full engine power till 4th gear in Sport and Race mode, in slick mode you get full engine power in 3rd gear. with the ABS and TC you get full power all the time. If what I read is correct, I'm gonna try it tonight and see.

Reminder for the drag strip, the rules for bikes:

All motorcycles/ATVs are required to have a helmet, a leather/kevlar jacket, boots, and gloves.

Damn, they require a leather jacket now? I was planning on wearing my mesh jacket and pants. I really don't want to go full leathers.

I might have a honda leather jacket that will fit you. Its the one Bird gave me.

I'd rather go down in my mesh armor than in jeans and a leather jacket. I doubt that'll fit me, I'm pretty much in a medium now for shirts and jackets. Plus it says Honda on it. That would likely cause my bike to get pissed and throw me off, Sauter-style. My large mesh is even a bit loose. I'll just wear my two-peice leathers tonight, although the pants will be falling down around my ankles. Giggidy.

Ill be wearing full leathers.

I'll probably just throw on leathers then, my leather jacket doesn't zip to me mesh pants, I don't need a tramp stamp scar

That's pretty hot. Especially if the scar comes in butterflies and lillies.

Should be fun

It has always said leather but they allow mesh. I will be heading out of my house at 630 so the wife and kids can go with me. She will not stay all night with the kids but she should be there for a while. I will call them here in a minute to make sure.

Anyone want to leave Ft Worth at about 630?

Ok just got off the phone and mesh is fine as long as it has the pads in it. I am undecided on which way im going right now. I usually do jeans and mesh jacket but might go leathers... not sure.

I'm gonna do a leather jacket and jeans.

Ask John how he feels about wearing leathers on a drag strip

Yea im just not sure how much I wanna sweat.
