Traction is tough sometimes and launchin a 98 and a 117 or 124 are 2 different worlds all together. The fun factor is way up with bigger motors. I think Rons new motor will be KILLER though! No detail untouched there!
Dennis, isnt there more traction at the track though? I remember from my car days, where on the street you would always spin no matter what, but launch in the rubber trails and its like glue?

yeah, usually! if track is prepped right and you can hold your line. its past the 60 ft that gets slippery. but on the street, you know how quick a big motor can break loose. well, it may do the same at the track. we have a local 1/8 track that is terrible. line up in the dragster tracks, launch, and as soon as you get out of the track, you feel the bike walking around-----even at 70 mph. its crazy. slicker than the country roads!
