We could not have ask for more perfect weather, light winds, cooler temps (high 80's), clear skies...well an 18 mph tail wind might have been helpful!
What a lonely spot it is on the Mile when you are the next rider up...time to think, to reflect...time to wonder what ever possessed you to do such a crazy thing!
Marie, Jen, and Brianne
This is Ralph and Deni's second Texas Mile with us - we love having them join in our excitement...and Ralph fixed us up some wonderful treats :0)
Chance thinks he is just another Grandpup to Ralph and Deni - all grandchildren/pups need extra sets of grandparents around occasionally!
Roger waits with our daughter - this is the point right before heading out to the runway.
A short burnout before the launch - then 222.555 mph from a standing start, on a 2005 stage one turbo Hayabusa...shut down area 1/2 mile.
How'd this picture get in here? Hey, it's our Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy tuner - Johnny Cheese's boots! Johnny did a fantabulous job tuning the turbo, offering advice and agonizing with us along the way :)
Aha! A more familiar version of Johnny Cheese. Jen happily presents the Cheese Man with a certificate of speed.
"Tuned by Johnny Cheese"
Jen is all business while preparing for a 222 mph run down the Mile
What a crew! Nate, Roger, Johnny Cheese, and Mike - all familiar faces on the Mile.Jen pushed that little stage one turbo busa as far as it would go, pulling out the desired 222.555 mph run she has been looking for, for the past year. She had lots of help from her dad, her tuner - Johnny Cheese, Michael, Chance, friends...and of course me, her mom :0)
Well, here it is - after a struggle with my video camera, the program, problems uploading, along with other issues - it may be crude, but it tells the story!
