Daytona Bike Week 2006
A friend of mine and I rode up from Ft. Lauderdale, watched the races and the opportunity to Dyno Drag our bikes. He rides a Gixxer 1000 so I new I'd get my arse kicked unless he was simply pathetic. Well, as it turned out, I was the one that was simply pathetic. I had terrible reaction times, I may have missed a shift in the first run (can't remember for sure), and missed not one but 2 shifts my 3rd run, hence the even more lousy time and speed. The three 1/4-mile races broke down as such:

Elapsed Time: 10.447
Speed: 134.300
Reaction Time: 1.070
