How would this all work? Lucas, I picked up a 12R. Can't wait to see what kind of times I'll get with this one. Great Lakes Dragaway (WI) and Mid America (IA) I just started last year. | ||

If I can help, let me know, I race from 2004. I europe, different countries.. look here fore history. www.dragbike.nl | ||

Well, in my mind(a scary, scary, place), I was thinking that like-minded individuals would get together in each area. Plan a time...monthly, bi-monthly, etc... Find racers, shops and the like from the area to help(discounts, coaching, etc...) and agree to come together on decided upon dates and have a HOOT'N'NANNY! You can make it as involved or as loose as you (your group) wishes. There will be folks who have never raced before who will need the commraderie and help and understanding of those who are well versed in the sport. You can work with the local tracks to make a special event for your group(within the normal track days, of course). If they can see that you are bringing more folks into the "fold", they will work with you on making your 'play date' special. Of course you can include your families. Make it, for them, a picnic, barbeque, fun n games, kind of get to gether and they will actually start to look forward to the bike nights. The possibilities are endless... | ||
| Pammy |
Of course everyone can compare notes, right here on the BWB! | ||

I race in Louisiana and Mississippi, I run 1/4 and 1/8 mile. Fiery I cant wait to see what you run. What you going to do to it? | ||
| Radon30 |
Wheelie bars, stretched or stock wheel base? I believe in cluth control, but its hard to beat someone that has any of the above. | ||
| Fiery_xb |
I'd like to have a stretched swingarm, but . . . I want to be able to use in on some track days also. So I'm gonna put a wheelie bar on it. Strap down the front end, like you showed me w/ a steering stabilizer on it. Also a race kit. And some weight taken of of the bike and myself (hopefully). Change the clutch spring to an '06. Pammy it sounds great. Is anyone planning on coming to the Homecoming? Just an idea, but maybe something could be put together to have a Buell shootout. Just a thought. | ||

Hi some of you know me here I'm Scott from Lil Scotts Customs. If you guys would like to have some drag races for homecoming I know I could do something for you just let me know. We will be doing the Queen of the hill at Great lakes Dragaway this year at the Harley Drags | ||
| Radon30 |
Fiery xb when were you at Mid America in Glenwood, IA. ? | ||
| Pammy |
I think a friendly drag race during homecoming would be a great 'must do'. It would have to be a non-Buell sponsored event, I am sure, but fun none the less. I you guys and gals would have some good ideas. | ||
| Lucas70374 |
I am running stock wheelbase, strut on back and strap on front. | ||
| Coolice |
Yes she was last Memorial Day weekend (2006) and she brought home a BIG trophy | ||
| Fiery_xb |
Randon, I was at the Memorial Day weekend like Coolice said. Were you there? Scotty that would be excellent!! Thanks | ||
| Bads1 |
Hey Hey Scott bout time you registered here.BTW congrats on the show this past weekend. Pammy, Scott is pretty heavy into Drag racing and is kinda a force to reckon with in this area. If you want to organize something of this nature he's your guy... no doubt. He sponsor's quite a bit at our local track and his time. Awesome Nancy on what your doing and good luck. If you guy's need help I'm alway's around to get event's rolling. | ||
| Lsc |
Thanks Dana same to you on the show that sidecar we had there was a big hit too. All I need is some dates you guys want to race and we'll get it setup.Nancy they asked me about it sunday and I said we would do it all year. | ||
| Radon30 |
Yes, i was there made a few passes and packed up. I thought the turn out was bad and not a very organized event. | ||
| Fiery_xb |
Were you on the Blue tuber? | ||
| Radon30 |
Yep, that was me!! | ||
| Fiery_xb |
Well, Coolice and I were the two you were talking with! We ran a couple runs against each other. Remember you smoked me. LOL | ||
| CJXB |
With that new bike you got now fiery, I doubt anyone can smoke you again !!! You can count on me to come watch you do some drag racing too !! | ||
| Scott_in_nh |
I race at New England Dragway in Epping NH. They have "Streetnights" on Wednesday and Friday nights and I enter the occasional "Streetfighter" bracket race (they have them about once a month). Anybody who would like to meet there and race or see what it is all about can drop me a line. Scott | ||
| Pammy |
There you go Scott, that's what I am talking about. Like minded folks all getting together, possibly bringing friends... And get the wimmen folks involved, you have the makin's of a good old hoot'n'nanny. I could picture CJ doing more than just 'watchin'. She seems like a doer to me  | ||
| Fiery_xb |
CJ can kick some Booty! She whooped me a couple times the first times we tried this all out a couple of years ago. Just have to get her back out there. HurricaneLeah and I talked about getting a Buell Chick Drag Team together. If your out there Lurking, Leah or Wes. How's the hand Healing up? |
