Congratulations to the winner, and congratulations Gary on the 4.18 that’s fast, so proud to say I grew up with the Christopher family. THE G MAN. The Canadian Christopher Rocket 🚀 cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Thx Jack for taken us along on a challenging, entertaining and interesting video hats off to all. BITD on my return from Vietnam bought a brand new Z1 and bracket raced at Irwindale, OCRW, and Carlsbad so I gotta go with the Z but great racing by all involved. Thanks Cycle Drag.
Gotta say man, totally love seeing all those experience wrinkles and centuries of combined knowledge. Ole boys are liveing days, weeks and years for those few seconds that count. Old bikers dont go grey, we go Chrome. :)
I never heard of any of these racers but I am so impressed with their professionalism, committment, all on a shoestring budget--how many have big sponsors? This is grass roots racing unlike anywhere else! They race for the challenge, the love of racing. Its as good competition as you'll find anywhere--drama galore! How about that old man on the Busa?? Wow!
@@cycledrag love all motorcycles but been riding harleys 47years and anyone riding nitro(bomb)harley got my vote.Back late '90s final round a rider blew up at 60' taking front end off...in front of me..wow..hurt but back next race ECRA👍👍buds creek MD
Now I have a gsxr 1000 2011,yeah it's quick!! These things are mind blowing. The sound effing brilliant. Watching from Hackney, north London. Great show. That track is epic. Awesome view, big up yourself. 👊👍 BUSA FOR ME.
Old school for me, did some drag racing with an old school gsxr in FB class,early 2000, and really like the analogue bikes more. No silly abs or other driving aides for the street.
Enjoyed immensely, great video. I was a bit sad to not see the old GS Pro Mod not move on primarily because my personal Bike is a 1983 GS1100ESD that I purchased new, I still ride it to this day, not many rides without a few inch air gap under the front tire. I don't know of many bikes that could attest to this type of riding for 39 + years and still be going strong. Randy AKA randog311 (Retired Professional Wrench, Audi's are my Specialty).
@@cycledrag I purchased my GS while I was Wrenching at Alan Johnson Porsche + Audi in San Diego California April of 83'. Just so happened that a pair of Salesmen also bought themselves an 1100 Japanese Sport Bike. A GPZ1100, FJ1100 and My GS1100ESD would park together on the Dealership Lot (pretty Cool). I had a License Plate Frame that read: "Who Needs a Porsche". I moved my family to Colorado in 1994 after the local economy crashed in San Diego. After arriving at High Altitude I Installeda SuperTrapp Superlight 4 into 1 Exhaust, individual K&N's Jetted it with a DynaJet Stage 3 Kit. I lived about 5 Miles from Bandimere Speedway (Mile High) which I attended somewhat regularly for NHRA Events and the like. In the late 90's they would hold all Motorcycle and Snowmobile Racing Events, I raced my GS at a couple of these events although I was presented with a dilemma, the Track had a 12 Second Rule, if you were to go quicker then 12 Seconds then Full Leathers (slower then 12 only a Leather Jacket was required) & an Ignition Kill Tether was required. I wasn't at all interested in Buying a Set of Leathers so I chose to Burn away time by Dropping the Clutch between 3,000 - 5,000 RPM (No 's Required, it's built into the end of Revolutions / RPM is a Snapsot in Time) resulting in a lot of tire spin followed by the engine bogging for a moment before the front wheel shot skyward. Doing this numerous times I consistently ran 12.4 to 12.8 Seconds @ 108 to 110 MPH (Mile High with a 235 Lb Rider). One Launch the wheel went to or beyond the balance point, I brought it down, Hit the Throttle and only managed to loose a half second. I've also replaced some Transmission Parts from a 1980 GS1100E whilst still in San Diego along with Vance & Hines Heavy Duty Bearing Kit and High Volume Oil Pump Drive. Still runs like a violated primate (PC). Randy AKA randog311
I like the old school applications. How ever do not stop progress, amazing technology to play with good results if everything comes together to get the best out come.
I live less than 10 miles from this track. I wish I'd known about this event. I would've gone at least to spectate, maybe even race if they had a stock class.
You are so good like this a lot Geoff problem is wheel balance as tire's would make the front shake at any speed easy to notice Balance to wheel is a bit harder as starts at high speeds and pulls to one side badly.
Yeah, they could smooth out the run-out by re-paving it. Better yet, make it a real 1/4mi dragstrip. Good suggestion Jack, maybe you'd like to help fork over the $ for that suggestion you made buddy.

You interviewed him he said the oil didn't not mess up the Run he said when the bike comes down the front end acts up he said it might need a new tire I say change the rim it's probably 40 years old I had the same problem with my rear rim out with the old and with the new most of the time that'll fix it

i like nigel i used to go to his shop in santa ana on warner he was right next to the shop gary pena when i first moved to california nigel did some valve work for my street turbo z1 he is a maticulate professional great guy he lost his english accent a bit
Pretty funny how they say turbo busa or turbo Harley or whatever because these engines only use a base platform a v twin isnt actually a Harley because you can't buy these engines and rods heads nothing is actually factory.

Great racing!
Terrific commentary!
Enviable sportsmanship!
Well done to all!
Look at that crowd! (there ain't none) What a show! The people there were friends and family only--why is this racing so unknown? I loved it!
shame, the amount of work and effort that goes into these bikes they deserve some recognition. and I'm not a bike fan.
Racing fans stopped going to the races when they stopped racing 1/4 mile.
Another great video Jack I have no favourite type bike Luv em all ..cheers mate from Australia.
