2014-11 Getting ready for the races #109 SCTA LSR Harley Sportster XL 500cc Single by tatro machine

see what happens when you try to go to the races at El Mirage dry lake bed.
Being a Topfuel bike you have to check things out to make sure it is ready to go. sometimes it isn't and you have to work late into the night to make the race.
after all the fun with the bike my truck broke down 150 miles out and I missed the last race of the season. 
oh will, there's always next year.
