We finally did it today on friday the 13th....
ran a 9.91 sec. at 145.64 mph. The axles held up but the clutch did not on that run.
Second run it cut a 1.5 60ft but the clutch gave in at the light...
Videos coming later on tonight.
thanks to all for the support,
markski

I just spoke with Bobby and he believes that if the clutch held up you would have posted a 9.4 at over 150mph... 
He was on his way to the store to buy the cable that he needs to transfer the video to the computer..
It's good to see that the axles held up to Bobby's right foot!!

In my book...which is small, over the ocean and far away in Australia...it is the first.
Evoms was a marketing coup.
I believe there was too much smoke and mirrors with the EVOMS pass.
Marksi's was the result of awesome dedication by a street legal 996tt owner...where all members got to share in his trials and tribulations along the way.
just my opinion...which i am entitled to.
