Papi
Mmmmm...Faster
Thank you Jen for volunteering this year :thumbup
You have proven yourself already and really helped out this past weekend.
One correction above, we currently are the SCTA Record Holder in 1650 P-P.
However, we missed the BNI Record by less than 2MPH in 2010, so we are going back to go after that. If all goes well at SpeedWeek, then we will also go for the AMA and FIM records.
As Jen said, the new bike we are also running (1350 APS-BF) is a new game. I ran that bike once before taking out an Intake valve under boost last year at about 150 in 3rd gear at about 50% load. Our fresh Motor should be ready by SpeedWeek, and we are also adding some new tricks. Like Jen said, our goal is to beat the standing record and hopefully turn over 250, then onto 275. My one and only pass on that bike last year was very interesting. Besides smoking the motor, having a Blown Fuel bike is like having the hand of God push you down the track. It's no where near as violent as NA, it's just magical with mind blowing HP between your legs.
7/2 UPDATE: The ZX14 P-P motor fired up last night on the Motor Dyno, after a whole weekend of battling electrical gremlins, swapping out harnesses, connections and so forth. I was about an inch away from slitting my wrists over that stupid closed Kawasaki ECU when the Wizard found an open circuit wire under harness wrap. When she fired, it sounded so very sweet and bitchen, I about wet my chonis. We will break her in on the cradle attached to a Frough-Hoffman water brake with Superflow data acquisition. Our built baseline numbers need to be upped by at least 15HP squeaking near 240HP out of the factory built motor. Fingers crossed.
She will be poked and prodded today and tuesday by the Wizard measuring Data Aq out of every orifice we can plumb. The tuning is next, then off of the cradle so we can re-assemble a torn down bike replacing corroded parts (from the salt) along the way. Going to be a very busy two weeks.
Attached is a crappy cell phone pic from the glory of her running last night and the Wizard hooking her up. I friggen love that man.
