Default For anyone interested on 300' racing...

Couple weeks ago Jeff guillot who owns what used to be planet sand drags in Gilbert La every year has a new record on his personal race trike. I saw this this in person about 2-3 years ago when it ran a 2.7 @ 121 and I had chills watching. After the run you would receive a momentary dirt shower lol. I believe its some kind of a nhra nitro powered funny bike engine. They can adjust power from 1000-1300 HP depending on track conditions. And thats only in a 1200# bike. This thing is insane. Enjoy!

I have seen it too. That thing scares me, and I ride a modified yamaha raptor that runs 4.2 at 75mph. Trikes are something else, when you see one run you will never forget it.
