That green zx10r was bending time and space down the straight. Ninja wheelies FTW!

Hey Dave,

You must have switched your sprocket down one tooth? I didnt hear a shift between 2 and 3 Hopefully it did save you some time, nice vid!!!

Thanks, I actually went two teeth smaller in the back, and I dropped about 6 tenths after that.

I found that out too when I changed my gearing. Bouncing off the rev limiter is like dragging the brakes. It's amazing what corner speed does for lap times. Hop on a lightweight bike and you'll learn fast is all about corner speed.
