Have you thought about an air shifter or electric shifter? The amount of attention that frees up is quite frankly amazing, and being able to shift WFO without having to manipulate the throttle/clutch is pretty good for stability generally... makes the whole affair go smoother. It also gives you the option to move where you have your footpegs if you want to change your body position to a more lay down/drag
race posture.

We are looking into that, we believe the dyno jet shifter will work when i run out to max rpm i just blip throttle for kill and send it, but a mistake means run is over, on the drag bike im building Robinson is gonna look at making trans automatic.

The dynojet is ok, I suppose, but being able to shift with a button is a game changer. I held out for the longest time on my turbo 10R when it came to extra wheelbase and an airshifter... in hindsight I kick myself for not doing both much, much sooner. It's worth it. Fun fact: you can set it up on a window switch/nitrous controller and it will hit each gear change at a pre-determined rpm, so long as you don't have to worry about wheel spin/wheelies that works out tits.

I need to dial up Robinson and see if he'd be willing to do a set of final reduction gears for some big mph... it's been a while since I've spoken with them.

thanks Spaz, weve got some ideas on somethings were wanting to do for October. It was a real hoot for sure, right out the box i threw my dart backwards and at 130ish it wanted to flip around and get right, so my cg was definitely off. I had to go pretty hard out the box to get the big girl up to speed for my final run and believe i can improve on this, i have throttle left everywhere its just getting it applied and not messing up other stuff during the run. Gonna travel across the country on trips, putting down miles, then after i return from a trip out west in august after touring her around im gonna get her dressed back up to go fast. Its fun having a tourer that can throw down in the wild on pump gas and then go lsr. Looking forward to watching you push big numbers this year! They said the motor was to mean sounding to be in the up to 3000cc class

I can relate to the weave for sure. The more runs you get the more things slow down for the rider and relaxed you get which leads to fewer rider mistakes.

Late to the party as usual, but great results and great personal achievement to be proud of Kevin!
Remember those thoughts a few years ago when high BP and heart flutters made you think you may have to give up riding?
Look how far have you have come since then!
