What not going to the ACE then

Did the ACE earlier in the year (Kawasaki Day)....
Haven't been on the drag strip this year so far, and weathers look 'spot-on'
Not so far to go either

Right.... its defo on tomorrow then aiming to be there by 11am
Think I'll be meeting Ralphy just north of Yeovil at the A303/A37 'Podimore' roundabout (little chef) at 10am
Should have a few runs, so long as me Dyna 2000 don't give up the ghost and me front sprocket stays on
See ya there chaps

We'll be at the Diminutive Cook at just before ten on the twelve.

You never know I might take her up the strip ... with CB on the back

Hum dinga of a day

CB and myself went down on the FJ. picked up Piglet at Podimore and met Noel down at the strip. After not very gentle persuasion from Biscuit Boy, I took the big lardy Yam up though scrutineering and went to get my number and cough the readies when I was told I couldn't play cos I didn't have my driving licence with me

I had my toy camera in my pocket and did my best to get some pix of team Z1OC-SW. They're not great but they're all we've got -

Here's our valiant piglet taking on a Nitrous enhanced Gixer



Here's Noel giving it his all:



Here's the first of his spectacular wheelies, by no means caught at it's highest



Noel has bought a new side stand from Vance and Hines for his 'arris

Good effort chaps! That`s more than i`ve done this year, did you get any times? It`s just an 1/8th mile there isn`t it? Bikes looking good Pigford....

Cheers Andy....... Running slower than last time out (Nov 07)

Best was a 7.59/92mph....

The Nitrous Gixxer did a 6.7/120+ He had to run 8psi in the rear

Tracks pretty shite tho...... but what do I know

Really tempted to fit me lumpy cams & the Nitrous kit i have stashed in the back o0f the garage

STOP and THINK - Did the guy on the Gixxer enjoy it any more than you did? You looked as happy as a pig in shit to me sorry about the metaphor Oh alright it was deliberate and I s'pose I'm not really sorry

How do you measure pleasure

Anyway Piggleonion, now I've seen how you use the black bike, I can't wait to bid on a carefully ridden classic on Ebay!!

my best was 7.65/90.1 not as fast as piggy but i had a great time just the sa m e [nearly shit myself when i wheelied] look forward to the next time it was good to see ralph,marian and piglet again

Good on yer Noel, and perhaps I'd be better off (and cheaper) loosing a few lbs.....

Must admit, if you got too serious with this sort of thing, it could spiral out of control pretty quickly

But.........

Looks like you guys had a great day out

Brings back memories of going to the Pod, before kids, mortgage, credit crunch I'll have to dig out some of the old photo's.

Good on ya chaps - whens the next one?

Nice to see some bikes being used as thay should be, good on you lads

Those are still pretty good times and speeds Pigford, especially for a crap track. Good on you guys for giving it a go and just having some fun, but you`re right it is a slippery old slope, you always want to go that little bit faster.....and then ker ching!! Oh dear, where has all my money gone? And why does my road bike suddenly have an air shifter and need to run on race fuel? Doh! It is very addictive, be careful out there......
