    I've been into drag racing for 25+ years. Sad day for the straightliner nitro crowd and all motorsport fans in general. We lost a great one today and in my opinion, it did not have to happen. Why there is no runoff at a track that speeds normally run in excess of 300 mph, I'll never know. Too...

    I almost bought one but good sense and this forum taught me different. Actually, there is only one Yamaha (Raider) in their total top ten. Thoughts?............

    Black Cherry 07 Spotted @ Atlanta Dragway yesterday

    Went to Friday qualifying yesterday for the NHRA straightliners. Parked my 08 in the the motorcycle area and saw another feejer there. Just wondering if it was anyone from the forum. At least I know I'm not the only one that enjoys breathing in Nitro fumes!

    OMG! He's asking about trailering an FJR!

    OK, please everyone do not freak out but I have a question. I'm 300 miles from D&H. I ordered my new FJR from them this week :yahoo: When it comes in, if it's bad weather or freezing cold, I'm going to pull my 4'x8' trailer over there and pick up my ride. I used to haul my Harley's on it...
