| Mikej |
Thanks. That bronze one looks like it'd be interesting to ride. Got that new skinny rear tire look thing going on. | ||

bronze one looks like it'd be interesting to ride Especially since I don't see any brakes on front or back. It gives a whole new meaning to "all show, no go"  | ||
| Rocketsprink |
Actually, there are brakes ala. Buell inspired. Mounted on the outside of the rims | ||
| Mikej |
And it looks like it's using the twist clutch and twist brake handlebar grips. That would be a little strange to get used to. Think the builder would loan it to me so I could get used to it????? | ||
| M2guy |
I THINK YOU'D HAVE TO WEAR A BACK PACK WITH SPARE GAS ALSO | ||
| Dana P. |
Its a different bike thats for sure.They were all really nice pieces of art. | ||
| Dana P. |
Lake in all honesty they all ran and were rideable. | ||

sunday, Sunday, SUNDAY at Great Lakes Drag Way is the season ending Harley shootout and Rally. And it even more exciting news, they will actually ben racing twice! 1 rain make up date, then the double points season ending final Harley shootout shortly after. Swap meet, bikini show, Bike show, etc....Would be awesome to see a large Buell contingency out there! Gates open at 9am. THEY WILL SELL YOU A WHOLE SEAT, BUT YOU WILL ONLY NEED THE EDGE! WFO | ||
| Racerx1 |
Dana, looks like the show was great! I had some unbelievable bad luck on Sunday as I was heading down from Milwaukee and the catalyst in my truck decided to collapse and leave me stranded on the Hone bridge...pretty stressful day... | ||
| Uwgriz |
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, we'll be there. Hope to see more of you out there! | ||
| M2guy |

What do they mean you "need this post card" with the $20 admission? If ya just do the "fun runs", will they let you bring in a trailer? Thinking of bringing the Buell and the Ducati. Don't know how much I'll run the Duc, but wouldn't mind bringing it. Anyone know?!?!?!?!  | ||
| CJXB |
Jet cars run What's jet cars ?? What's fun runs, how much is that ?? Is fiery going, I want to kick her butt on the track !! LOL CJ  (Message edited by cj_xb on August 24, 2005) | ||

Rocco, you can bring a trailer in, that's no problem. Why not do the shootout with the Buell and fun runs on the Duc? CJ, fun runs are just that, you get to do some runs but you're not entered into an event of any kind, so it's just a run and see how fast you go kinda deal. If it's the same price on Sunday, it's $25. As for the jet cars, well, image a jet engine with 4 wheels and some bodywork. | ||

OK heres the scoop!!! Scott Sorenson just called me and he must of been lurking here.He asked me if any of my club members would like a 1/2 off ticket for admission and a wrist band for Lil Scotts party that they are throwing out there Sunday.Free beer,soda,water and such.If I can get a definate head count of who really is going I'll pick up the tickets and wrist bands.Call me on my cell 1-262-939-9922 or email me a RSVP.Great Savings and from some great people.Ok who wants one??Phone operators are standing by for your calls. | ||
| Uwgriz |
Figure me and Heather in. | ||
| Dana P. |
Jason call me !!! | ||
| Steve_mackay |
'lil Scotts Party? What is that? | ||
| Rocketsprink |
Jason, good idea, but since I've never run either bike at the strip, I don't want to make myself look like a bigger jackass than I already look. But we'll see. Do I have to register each bike separately if I just do the "Fun Run"? I'm not made of money ya know!! At least that's what Karri tells me. I think I'll also run full leathers. Dana. Karri, Jon and I are going, so figure at least Karri and I. I doubt if they want kids in there. Jason, what time should we set up, 4:00am or so?? Kidding!! But I'm bringing the EZ-UP, so set up near eachother would be a good idea. | ||
| M2guy |
I'll be in vegas baby! otherwise sounds like my kind of party! have fun everyone this weekend! We'll be renting bikes on friday for a day of riding.  | ||
| Dana P. |
Steve Lil Scotts is the custom builder that won my event this past weekend.He is a sponsor at the Shootout and is throwing a party and we are invited.He just wants to make sure he is giving me the tickets and wrist bands and they will be used and not wasted.You in??BTW heres a pic of the bike they drag all over the country.  |
