December 15th - Ben Bostrom took his new ride, the GSXR 1000, that he had never ridden before, out on a cold track and blistered his way to a new record of 1:13.801!!

His post record interview has him saying how he didn't want to push it because the track was cold...

And to the record keeping nazi's...

Yes, I know it wasn't in a race...I know there wasn't someone there with a pen, paper, and notary stamp...I know it's not going to be considered "official" for all these reasons...

It dosen't change the fact it is a real time, and it really happened...

To put it in perspective:

Anything less than a 1:20 at Jennings is "fast".

1:15's is ungodly fast.

1:13's is just stupidfuckingridiculousludicrousasinine fast.

Not too bad.

Henry is correcting people that are calling it a "lap record".

The way this thread is phrased is perfect. It gives credit where it is due without trying to call it a new record.

Well done L8 Braker. :shmike:
