Finally made it out to the track for the first time in about 3 years with a little different setup last friday for tnt at slsd. Of course it had to be a record setting day for the heat, I heard it made it 102 degrees! Anyway I threw a 4mil crank in on pretty much the same setup but cut it all into the domes and now im running a stock link setup and shock on the rear instead of a strut so I can run in the dunes so I wasnt able to run a bar. Oh yeah I also put on a few pounds over the years, im at 185+ instead of 150+ lol and went back to the 12 paddles for fear of flipping over without the wheelie bar. Now that the excuses are out of the way I was still able to match my best times at this track with a best of a 4.3 flat! First run off the trailer was next to morse250r at 4.5ish taking off in 1st not sure how the track was going to hook. Next pass I took off in second, almost 4.4 flat. Next pass I dropped air pressure in the tires from about 14lbs to 5lbs, just guessing cause I did it while I waited in line and ran a 4.3 flat against buddy H. anybody know what motor hes running, bike was stretched a mile!! Next pass I tried curve 1 instead of the stock curve on the dyna and ran a 4.38. Last pass I tried curve 3 and ran 4.31. All with the plate on 0 because on memorial weekend when I first cut the domes on the 4mil I used 17cc domes and only cut them to about .120 deep in just the squish band area, nothing from the dome area which gave me 210lbs of compression and backed the plugs out even though I backed the timing down to zero from +8 previously without the 4mil (approx. 170psi). Now im back to about 160 psi cause I recut them another .100" into the some area. Needless to say I cant wait to get back out there on a cooler day and see what it does. Im also thinking of playing with the lockup to see if I can get the 60' times down cause im currently at 1.6's with just barely into the 1.58 range at best. I think I may have a few ideas up my sleeve with all the lockup talk lately! Holy [censored], I ramble on alot!!!!
