Life is too short to wake up with regrets. Love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason!

Glad to hear you are better - just sorry you had to go through hell to get back. Quitting is hard - I quit 16 years ago, pack a day for 20 years - but thank God you get a second chance! Take care of yourself, and we'll see you in the spring! YaYa Joan

I think it is Jordan Hasse on his 550....

Quickest no bar bike I can think of was a turbo hayabusa that came once, made one or two passes and then left because the shutdown is a bit on the sort side for going really fast. Not sure on exact ET or MPH, but it was in the 7's Long as hell with a slick.

Bar bikes might be Turbo Dan from back in the day or possibly Ed Vertullo on his funnybike, but I am not sure if he ever ran it all out at this track.

Had the opportunity to meet Dan at Diamond racecars today. Super nice Guy. Has two new cars under construction and a couple getting front suspension. Now he has mine too. Thanks Craig Pollice for the helpful info. We'll see how she works in about two weeks.

He's got a cool Rottweiler too!

Funny one John... actually I may hold the record best save of the year from my fun ride last weekend... seriously though we can always rematch the 550 wants another shot at that busa... maybe we can swap parts to make it a little more fair Rolling

Matt how did Marty do this weekend? I was hoping to stop on my way back from altoona but had car problems that set me back...

Ok, John... we get it... you have the most bestest Hayabusa that ever existed.

But seriously, does the track keep records of stuff like that?

Marty was a little disappointed, he only went 7.61 @ 172.

That's not my bike I was referring to Matt, I haven't had mine in the 7's yet. That was a guy who came out from Pittsburgh I think.

7.61 is getting down there though. That is probably pretty close to the quickest.

My apologies, John... I'm used to you whining about the track in regards to your bike. Rolling
