Ha ha ha , I saw that..... that's gotta hurt.
Scott has the Nissan haulin arse.

Nissan   1
57 Chev 0

I don't whether you know or not, but Scott Porter is the son of Des Porter who used to race at Surfers years ago.
His old man was  also the guy who crashed the 1934 DH84 De Havilland Dragon up near Baroomba Dam in 2012.

I took the ol girls Trumpy down a few times under strict instructions not to flip it.

I ran the slowest 60 footers known to mankind of 2.2 seconds, but did run a couple of 12.1's.

Would have easy gone a high 11:80's or better if I knew how to ride it correctly.

Tough bike for a chick though....  ;D

I dont think there is anything wrong with 2.2...   look at my times... i have the 4th fastest production bike from 0 to 60mph in the best hands and yet i also chose to enjoy watching the pretty lights and got 2.237.
In fact all my runs were crap until i got out of 2nd ... all i wanted was a 10sec pass and best was 11.038 @ 214.76km/hr... have to go back again now

Funny enough I was meant to lineup with him but some others juggked about and I missed out... lucky as he still would have been faster over the 60.
This is my first run . I found you  can enjoy the view more wih the visor up
