200 HP Chase Begins .... Now Completed 14 Months In. WooHoo !!

I want to know who is going to win the next race at the strip.... Don't need brakes for that?

Is anyone giving odds.... Rocket vs Thruxton?

What's your money on?
I think most reasonable riders would have to say Mr. Bill and his pumped up Rocket 3 are like a 99 to 1 favorites and that includes me.

I would need perfect weather and a perfect ride with some errors from Mr. Bill to have a 50/50 chance.

I'm way too old and inconsistent to be perfect these days. I think after 49 races covering six years with him and me riding six different bikes each it can be argued the lack of experience should not be an excuse for losing .

After this race win or lose I'm calling it a day. The last few times out were not pretty.
 
We appreciate the time you spend filming those race episodes along with Bill's build, then passing them on to us. You two guys have put some smiles on the faces here...

Take care at the strip and remember, most of us feel we know you guys because of those movies, even though we haven't met... keep the videos coming :thumbsup:

Last few times out looked great to me! Youre not ready to stop according to what i see on film of you at the track. You are an inspiration and i for one hope this is not your last time out.

That was what I was shooting for and we hare having fun at the same time. I don't think my channel will ever be as slick as a lot of youtube channels out there. However, I am aiming to get the viewers to feel like they are part of it and right there with us.

Hopefully we can get some more youtube riding buddies to watch and comment in, that makes the work to make them worthwhile.

Thanks for your kind words.

It is one of those things where I can feel it slipping away. Some of the young guys I use to race on their on 120 horsepower bikes decided to up their game with stretched swing arms, air shifters, cut out boxes and right at 200 rwhp too.

Last time I went almost everybody had those 9.5 to 10.2 bikes. I don't mind a challenge but old George Armstrong Custer had a better shot to win.😄😄

I figured with all the work Bill did I owed him at least one more shot at me. There are a few other guys that want to race him so I'll be there to help him and tease him a bit when he needs it.👍

Teasing's good.... for Bill. LOL ;)
 
OOOH NOOOOO ! The drag race with Justdad later this year will be my final race on this Rocket. Who knows what could be next ???? Retirement is looming closer and closer.
Maybe Bonneville?? The class would be 3000cc modified partially streamlined gas. My 2020 rule book shows it is open. I'm not sure about 2021 since I sent Richard from TTS my 2021 book.....just saying. I know a guy who has all the stuff.
