So who's getting ready for Bonneville this year?I know Terry Parsley and I will be going for sure and I am pretty sure Choptop will be there,and Woz told me he's planning on going.Bob and Deb Gussenhoven are building something and will be there.Probably that stinky fisherman,Snail.I don't know about anybody else ,but I am still gonna be running as TEAM ELVES. | ||
| Snail |
I'm in. Tell Terry I'd like to schedule some dyno time in Aug. Not sure which events I'll do. The Bub thing has a fresh email update. If you didn't get it I'll post it. | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Jim, I'll be there, maybe my daughter also (possible 130 club cadidate). Still work out a "class bike". I'm not geting very far on that one. You are talking about World of Speed and not the new one right? Brad | ||
| Firemanjim |
Affirmative. | ||
| Buckinfubba |

| Rex |
Rex here...I have two days scheduled off....talked with chop about it today....you guys going to the past run, vrs.the bub one? REX I am hoping to get the 130 or 150 club this year... | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Rex, Wanna do the 130 on a M2? It can be done even with a fat fart like me on it! Aww, your S2 sould do it with ease! | ||
| Buckinfubba |
snail i'll email ya tomorrow thanks | ||
| Firemanjim |
Bubba,send info to me ,also.We can do more than one bike after all.Hell we can put it on ALL the bikes.(After all,ya know that stinky fisherman rides a--gasp--SUZUKI!!)ducking and running as Jim has a Yamaha,Triumph,and a KTM,but still loves his 2 Buells. | ||
| Snail |
Yea, Jim, we don't want to be putting any import bikes in the Team Elves Pit. Oh, no. Soon as my dinner settles I'll be heading back out to the shop. Pulling engine. Can't tell you what I'm doing yet...top secret. | ||

BUbba, FMJ: Let me know how big the decals need to be, quantity, color, and what you want them to say exactly, and I'll make 'em GRATIS. pduffey@signmaker.com | ||
| Henrik |
One could possibly make such stickers in quantity and sell them to Buellers to finance the Ted to Bonneville event. Henrik | ||
| Crusty |
Now, that's a really good idea. How much are they, and who do I send the money to? | ||
| Firemanjim |
Henrik,excellent idea!!! | ||

Fireman, We will be going out this year, but not sure which event. Primary is speedwekk and the World event is a close second. Would love to do the Bubs event but i don't think we will be ready in time. I'm riding a Dyna and a V-Rod built by Eagle Harley Davidson out of Lafyette Indiana... Can't Wait! | ||
| Snail |
The Bub event was my choice, cuz it has money to pay! But damn, its complicated, you have to join a couple diff. organizations, physical, expensive and time consuming. I'm thinking World of Speed, and World Finals. | ||

anybody shootin for the 200mph club? | ||
| Firemanjim |
Richard,it's in my sights,but money will keep me limited this year.I'll be saving my shekells and shooting for 2005/2006.I REALLY want it.Building a small motor this year,looking at 1350 class,then maybe 1000cc class. Also reconfiguring my old Yamaha Turbo for my son to ride again.It's now a 600cc/6spd,chain drive vs the 658cc/5spd/shaft of last year.Grafted a TL-1000 front suspension on and extended the swingarm.Should be a hoot for him. | ||
| Firemanjim |
Hey,Brad,how old is your daughter?Does she already have her motorcycle license? | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Jim, She'll be 19 in Aug. She now has her license. Her graduation gift from Jan and I last year was a Blast! She did the Riders Edge course last June. I have to be sure she is ready. She wants to do it but I won't let her if I'm not 100% sure of her skill level. She is fearless though... She wants an S1! | ||
| Snail |
I'm hoping to do 190 on gas, no turbo. Next year I'll run blown fuel and break 200 mph. | ||
| Rex |
Anyone have a motorcycle that I can take to the 130 mph club? rex | ||
| Firemanjim |
Woz?? | ||
| Firemanjim |
Snail,are you gonna turbo it?Have you been on www.suzukihayabusa.org turbo section?Motorhead sounds like he has just what you need. | ||
| Buckinfubba |
hey jim and paul, when is the event actually, it is a great idea about gettting ted there but not sure if his recovery will fit the time frame. but getting him on the sides of the bike is great of ya'll to do. | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Rex, You can use my M2, however, you have to have perfect form to break 130. It's going to be there if you want to use it. I just wish I had the $$ to prep it for the 150 Club. Brad | ||
| Snail |
Jim, no turbo this year, next year maybe. Not sure they've got the bugs worked out yet. Some have told me the Gix doesn't respond to a turbo like the Busas. I'm going to freshen up the engine and run the same class I did last year. | ||
| Scrap |
since the whole ride thing got shot out the window last year, I will most likely be going for strictly support purposes only..(please don't delete my post) But it is looking like I am going to be there.FMJ if anybody can hit 200 you can do it!! | ||
| Firemanjim |
Richard,thanks!!Just need a potfull more money(or find some big sponsors).I am working all the OT I can.DAMN!! | ||
| Rocketman |
Richard, don't mind me asking, but who are you supporting? No worries if you'd rather not say. Rocket | ||
| Scrap |
Anybody and everybody who's going. I'm just gonna go and have a good time. | ||
| Mikej |
"Anybody and everybody who's going. I'm just gonna go and have a good time. " And that is exactly what it should all be about. Excellent  I might be there next year if I get a welder setup this summer. | ||
| Snail |
Richard, be fun seeing you again. When I finish my own efforts if there's anything left in the Gix you can take if for a pass. Bring Brian with you, he's pretty damn clever at making things run better. Fun times ahead. | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Richard, I too look forward to seeing you again. Like Snail said, bring that Brain fella with you! | ||
| Choptop |
TheSuperModel and are hoping to be ready in time. Her WLA is still a basket case, and she is searching for cams. Other than that, its got lots of go fast secrets. The Triumph will most likely run on Alcohol this year. Dont know that I'll have time to do anything fancy with it. We are coordinating with RJ Racing (they ran the 250 Sprint last year) so as to not step on each others toes, so I dont know exactly what classes I'll be in. 90mph on a 250 Pushrod bike? hmmm, could happen  . | ||

BONNEVILLE RULE CHANGE !!!!! YOU MUST READ THIS THREAD IF YOU INTEND TO RACE AT A SCTA/BNI/USFRA EVENT THIS YEAR !!!!! http://www.landracing.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=7;t=000002 | ||
| Mikej |
Is the landracing.com site down or just overloaded at the moment? Would anyone care to paraphrase the rule change until the site resurfaces? |
