me and 2 other riders went to the drag strip tonight Oct 3rd 1/8 mile track. ran about 4 runs before with no problems and on about the 5th or 6th run when shifting into 2nd gear the front end popped up for just a slit second and allowed me to pull the throttle side of the bars over and when it came back down.... TANK SLAP for about half the track. while this was all taking place it turned me towards the gardrail and the track had been sticky. the onlt reason i was able to save it was because i got out of the groove and got to normal pavement where it was slick and allowed the front end to straighten out. ya and basicly shat my self for 1/16 of a mile haha

other than that ran a 7.687 @ 101.10 was the best run i had
not bad for the first time at the track pretty eventfull for me
