Lets hear those track times!!

[Claviger]

God I'm excited to get my Rocket back together so I can go set a personal best, and get the boot off the track for not having a license and going under 10.000 or over 150mph (hopefully both)

Where are you doing the runs Rob? We've got a track out my way at Bremerton.

I have a bone stock 2016, and will be taking it down the eighth mile at least a few dozen times before the end of this year. Just curious what you guys are getting out of your Rockets, stock, modded, doesn't matter to me. I'd like to know your modifications too if you'd like to share!

I used to ride down a country road quite often early on a Sunday morning. This road had a stop sign, followed by a long straight bit, so I got one of those measuring wheels and measured off 660' - or 1/8th mile - and marked it on the road with a spray can. I was usually at 95-100 when I passed the spot.

There are also cellphone apps that will give you 0-60, 1/8/ & 1/4 mile times etc.

I've used the Ulysses app which reads from gps. It's ok, but it lets me run when I'm ready, no having to cut a light or anything. 3 consecutive runs all in the 9.5's.

That’s what I’m shooting for. I completely ignore reaction time, it’s a meaningless metric for me.

Well having the same motor, and being about 80 lbs lighter than me, you should have a better time.

no it seems I remember him saying he is 200 pounds, and I'm usually about 280 pounds.
