I plan on going to Bonneville for the first time at the World of Speed event Sept. 12-15. The problem is that all of the people that were going to go with me are now backing out. Is anyone else going or would anyone be interested in helping out over the week? I don't think I can do everything by myself.

I plan on running APS-PG 1650

Here's a picture. It is finally together. Just a few more little things to finish up.

Ran 173.6 this morning to qualify to bump my new record. I guess I will find out in the morning if it will do it. I really want to go 175.

I will post some pictures when I have a chance to format them.

Way to go,Jeff. Saw a pic of your bike on Landracing. I am jealous,did not get my salt fix this year.
Take those front brakes off(rotor),don't need that hanging out in the breeze.Maybe a different air cleaner???

I broke off 2 sockets trying to get the rotor off even using heat and an impact hammer. Finally gave up and left it on. The air cleaner set up is the only thing I can get to run right with the big D. I run no filter, long standoffs and a radiused inlet. The air cleaner cover helps slow down the air and let it in I think.
