i hope everybody shows up to the events, i will be at hooters sat after dude buys my car, and most def at VMP on sunday maybe friday also, no work sat!
we are tryin to make plans for a late breakfast/early lunch on sunday. close to VMP if possible, no use in riding on a full stomach. there is plenty of places and bike shops around here and im 10-15 mins away from VMP sooo... not tryin to make life easy on myself... but it sounds logical to meet up around here, agreed?
let me know and lets make some decisions and lay um in stone!

wafflehouse in the heights works for me
no zx12 isn't the same guy, he's a friend of mine, i always go to him for drag racing advice, he'll be out with us thursday night for test and tune... he's right about the slipping thing though on the 600, otherwise you will just bog

Re: How do you do a proper launch?
And thank you all for the posts. Ill be sure to try these techniques out when im back up and running. For the most part i guess ive been doing to right. I leave both feet on the ground and lean forward, but i still find myself coming off the ground quite a bit (every since i changed the damn air filter and SP's 
) and i dont like coming off the ground without my feet being on the pegs.
I dont know how you guys with liter bikes keep the fucking wheel on the ground.
