Cool Gene! I've got a street sportster thats done service at Speedweek
before as a "pit bike" -can't get no better way to get around the pits at
Bonnie-ville! I heard the pits were almost a mile long during the 50th last
year...that may be stretchin it but I'd hate to have to walk the pits I'll
tell ya that!
BTW: my "sport" is an '82 "Roadster" turned flat-tracker with 10-1
wiseco's, sifton cams, ported heads, and running an andrews flowmaster carb.
-all work by yrs truly. you'll find that theres lotsa rodders that'r bikers
here too. -'course you already knew that.
"Welcome aboard" I've only been on this myself for a month or two an'
I'm havin' a ball learnin' loads of stuff I never knew!
See ya at Bonneville sometime! your're gonna fall in love.
Cheers, "Dirty Doug" in NY 6:45 pm edt 12/23/99
