    Getting ready for Sturgis Rally Drags

    Been racing the 'Busa all last season and this at Sturgis Dragway. Up until last weekend, I won exacty one round in all that time.
    Sturgis rally coming up in a few weeks and want to run one of the index classes along with Street ET, so I took my old reliable GS/ET out of the garage last weekend.
    Proved to be a good move. Won saturday with a field of 8 and again on Sunday against 13 bikes with first round buy back in effect. Dialed 7.90 and left it there all weekend. Broke out twice but by less than the other guy and never went slower than 8.08 Thinking that's not to bad for a guy weighing in at 260 suited and altitude of 4250'.

      Just an FYI, but many of us would love to see some shots at the strip.

      Here are a couple I shot at Lone Star Motorsports Park in Sealy, Tx. Not sure who the riders are.
