lakes meet

[Dean Los Angeles]

The lake bed at El Mirage is an extremely fine dust that pretty much kills air cleaners.

It's also slippery.

The fast guys understand this and adjust. You see a lot of fish-tailing off the line. A lot of guys are off and on the throttle.

Noonan sounded smooth through the whole run. One of the best in the business.

Normally a pretty smooth character, he looked absolutely giddy after the run.

I do not consider a few tears being giddy :lol:, I was so proud of my team and how well all of our vehicles ran at the end of the day.

I had wanted to run 220 on the sidecar and 230 with the naked bike however I will take the 240.197 all day long!  Looks like the most naked bike I have ever seen that still runs, no bodywork, gauges, headlight or bracket etc..

I will post a race report and more pictures later.

We put 6 miles on the C/GS record.  It's 229 now. Wayno

Way to go Wayno, Rick, etc.  I take it you got the transmission problem fixed.
