drag racin's on , not much get's done when the big boys run...
I've watched them on tv but nvr been in person. I've been to a couple nascar races. Kyle years back won a deal through Marlboro and we got to go to Chicago speedway and go 3 laps in a nascar and then we got into new mustangs and did the drift course. It was so fun and it was free...

It was awesome... Red bud track for the big motor cross dirt bike thing is only 25 mins from here but nvr got into motorcycle racing. I like drag cars mud cars monster trucks. If it ain't a Harley I ain't interested when it comes to bikes

When I hauled water in the Red Desert used to carry an Elsinore 250 behind the cab of my truck . Had a little ramp built for it. In 2 minutes I could have that thing unloaded and tearing up the prairie. It took 30 minutes to load water usually and that meant a pretty good ride before ya had to be back. A couple toolpushers had bikes and back at the rig same thing, unload it and tear up the prairie around the location. Last time I rode I was chasing the Toolpusher on Noble 84 and he weht left at a fork and I went right and was catching 4th on a little rise , and that rise was the edge of a very deep and wide wash. Did what I cvould ,twisted that throttle hard down and pulled up on the bars and ALMOST made it. Front made it but the back tire planted firmly on the far edge of the wash and i went over the handlebars plowing the dirt with my face. Broke a couple bones in my arm and had to ride back to the rig cause I was off the beaten track. Hurt like holy hell and that was the last time I set my ass on a dirt bike, 32years ago....Rode some street bikes since, even owned a 73 sporty for awhile....

So if you ever do get to getting serious about selling the 939, holler at me?

Till, then it's safer than zapping a 1250.

Jer, you really can clean the post threads up, takes a good solder sucker....
It would take a good solder sucker to clean up this thread too, but damned if I am gonna go through 300 plus posts to clean up miscellaneous solder comments. :rabbit:

Many a good man has dreamed of this type of gal. Reminds me of a Hall and Oates song called "Soldering":laughing1:

You just have to balance between what you can and cannot fix or justify taking space up.

It's like women, except for the fixing part.
