00:00:42,570 --> 00:00:45,276 A 1950 Triumph vintage gas motorcycle. 15 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,847 Holds the record in class at 126.455 16 00:00:59,883 --> 00:01:01,800 - Motorcycle 712. 17 00:01:43,487 --> 00:01:46,120 - The motorcycle went down at the three quarter. 18 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,410 - I heard it over on the radio. 19 00:01:47,410 --> 00:01:49,321 I heard, "Rider down." 20 00:01:49,321 --> 00:01:50,451 - Yeah, he's picking up the bike. 21 00:01:50,451 --> 00:01:51,422 - He'll be okay. 22 00:01:51,422 --> 00:01:53,255 - He's actually, yeah. 23 00:01:54,260 --> 00:01:55,093 - Oh shit. 24 00:01:56,177 --> 00:01:57,313 That's how it went down. 25 00:02:01,105 --> 00:02:01,938 Oh my. 26 00:02:04,881 --> 00:02:07,400 Just instantly terrified. 27 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,260 He was in top gear so he was movin' 28 00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:12,700 and coming off a bike it never good, 29 00:02:12,700 --> 00:02:15,963 but even with the safety gear and everything, 30 00:02:17,629 --> 00:02:19,810 that's terrifying, it's my brother. 31 00:02:19,810 --> 00:02:21,390 It's even worse. 32 00:02:21,390 --> 00:02:22,223 I bet they won't let him anywhere near, 33 00:02:22,223 --> 00:02:25,077 they're like 20 yards away, the officials are like, 34 00:02:25,077 --> 00:02:25,977 "Back off." 35 00:02:27,140 --> 00:02:29,580 But he says he was up and moving around 36 00:02:29,580 --> 00:02:31,120 and it seems like he's okay. 37 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,370 Nobody on our team has ever gone down before. 38 00:02:34,354 --> 00:02:36,604 We had some problems, wheel slip, this, that. 39 00:02:37,540 --> 00:02:40,300 I windowed the cases on a motor and locked up the rear wheel 40 00:02:40,300 --> 00:02:43,220 but did not go down, I managed to recover. 41 00:02:43,220 --> 00:02:44,780 This is the first time that any of us 42 00:02:44,780 --> 00:02:47,610 have ever had anything like this happen. 43 00:02:47,610 --> 00:02:49,400 I didn't feel true relief 44 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,843 until I saw him standing there smiling like an idiot. 45 00:02:54,227 --> 00:02:56,283 - I'm sorry to worry you. 46 00:02:56,283 --> 00:02:57,412 I'm fine. 47 00:02:57,412 --> 00:02:59,371 - Glad you're good, glad you're good. 48 00:02:59,371 --> 00:03:04,371 - Anything you walk away from is good. 49 00:03:04,910 --> 00:03:06,771 My head's 100% fine. 50 00:03:06,771 --> 00:03:07,839 My neck doesn't hurt. 51 00:03:07,839 --> 00:03:08,672 - No headache? 52 00:03:08,672 --> 00:03:09,535 - No, no. 53 00:03:09,535 --> 00:03:11,443 My fricken' hip is killing me and... 54 00:03:14,977 --> 00:03:16,666 My bike is fucked. 55 00:03:16,666 --> 00:03:18,267 - When it gets on the radio station. 56 00:03:18,267 --> 00:03:19,158 - Yeah, I'm waiting for them. 57 00:03:19,158 --> 00:03:20,305 - Do you want some parts? 58 00:03:20,305 --> 00:03:21,191 - Oh my... 59 00:03:21,191 --> 00:03:22,024 Yeah, man. 60 00:03:22,889 --> 00:03:24,070 What is that? 61 00:03:24,070 --> 00:03:25,060 My fork stop. 62 00:03:25,060 --> 00:03:26,121 How'd that happen. 63 00:03:26,121 --> 00:03:27,427 - It didn't work . 64 00:03:27,427 --> 00:03:28,686 - It pulled the threads out. 65 00:03:28,686 --> 00:03:29,519 - Did you see the front wheel? 66 00:03:29,519 --> 00:03:30,352 I saw a glance of it. 67 00:03:30,352 --> 00:03:31,708 - I was looking around the one side 68 00:03:31,708 --> 00:03:32,541 and I was like, it's not that bad. 69 00:03:32,541 --> 00:03:33,740 And then I saw the other side of the rim. 70 00:03:33,740 --> 00:03:35,773 - I think I flipped a few times. 71 00:03:38,010 --> 00:03:41,093 I don't know where I stood up, it was just really loose. 72 00:03:42,150 --> 00:03:46,510 I shifted into 4th a little early, like on purpose, 73 00:03:46,510 --> 00:03:49,086 at like six grand instead of 7500. 74 00:03:49,086 --> 00:03:52,429 Bring it up in fourth and it just, 75 00:03:52,429 --> 00:03:53,760 I had my steering damper cranked all the way it, 76 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,060 it just started gettin'... 77 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,808 I've never had an issue with the bike, straight as an arrow. 78 00:03:58,808 --> 00:04:01,760 It started wobbling and I went to go to the side 79 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,130 because it looked just gnarly where I was at, 80 00:04:03,130 --> 00:04:07,460 I backed off the throttle and that was the mistake. 81 00:04:07,460 --> 00:04:10,030 It started just, it was one second. 82 00:04:10,030 --> 00:04:12,060 - It's like sand, you were gettin' sand whipped 83 00:04:12,060 --> 00:04:13,740 so you gotta ride through, let it loose. 84 00:04:13,740 --> 00:04:15,240 - It bit and just. 85 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,520 So, I'm annoyed. 86 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,284 That bike was pristine. 87 00:04:21,284 --> 00:04:23,313 - Fuck the bike, I'm so glad you're all right. 88 00:04:24,310 --> 00:04:28,010 - Going to a tank slapper, low siding to a high side 89 00:04:28,010 --> 00:04:29,143 and I went down the salt 90 00:04:29,143 --> 00:04:31,400 and the bike fricken flew up in the air 91 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,480 and smashed four, five or six times into the salt. 92 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,750 My face, the visor was torn off my shield 93 00:04:37,750 --> 00:04:39,837 and I'm just staring up at the sky like, 94 00:04:39,837 --> 00:04:41,501 "Jesus Christ." 95 00:04:41,501 --> 00:04:43,030 I was able to stand up and I look back 96 00:04:43,030 --> 00:04:45,260 and my bike was way behind me down the salt. 97 00:04:45,260 --> 00:04:47,790 Walked down, picked the bike up, turned the fuel off 98 00:04:47,790 --> 00:04:49,560 and it's all messed up. 99 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,390 The front wheel's totally smashed. 100 00:04:51,390 --> 00:04:53,706 The whole rear end of the bike was smashed up. 101 00:04:53,706 --> 00:04:56,021 It was depressing. 102 00:04:56,021 --> 00:04:59,770 My right side was all black, black and blue. 103 00:04:59,770 --> 00:05:02,119 I couldn't stand up or sit down on my own 104 00:05:02,119 --> 00:05:05,234 because it hurt so bad this whole side of my body. 105 00:05:05,234 --> 00:05:08,453 Made a makeshift sling out of a table cloth. 106 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,780 I think an hour or so later decided we'd better go to 107 00:05:11,780 --> 00:05:14,180 Salt Lake City, better go to the hospital. 108 00:05:14,180 --> 00:05:15,670 When in the emergency room and got checked out 109 00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:17,800 to make sure I didn't explode a kidney 110 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,550 and to see what was up with my arm. 111 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,027 - So after last night we were cleaning up Tyler's bike, 112 00:05:30,130 --> 00:05:31,900 getting it back in the trailer. 113 00:05:31,900 --> 00:05:33,530 My bike was still in line for this morning, 114 00:05:33,530 --> 00:05:35,280 they shut the course down. 115 00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:36,900 They let us leave bikes in position, 116 00:05:36,900 --> 00:05:38,630 which means this morning I came out 117 00:05:38,630 --> 00:05:41,560 and they do the record runs 118 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,363 and I would have been six bikes back. 119 00:05:45,540 --> 00:05:47,130 I came out early, 120 00:05:47,130 --> 00:05:49,240 asked if I could and walked out. 121 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,520 Felt the salt, looked at the course 122 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,450 and just to me, it just looked rolly. 123 00:05:54,450 --> 00:05:56,630 It looked rough. 124 00:05:56,630 --> 00:05:57,820 The surface was wet. 125 00:05:57,820 --> 00:05:59,783 It was real similar to yesterday morning. 126 00:06:03,650 --> 00:06:06,610 That combined with my brother having just wrecked 127 00:06:06,610 --> 00:06:10,770 and going off to the hospital and everything else, 128 00:06:10,770 --> 00:06:13,193 everything just told me it's just not safe. 129 00:06:16,350 --> 00:06:18,973 You can see the tire tracks out. 130 00:06:19,830 --> 00:06:24,043 You can see how lumpy this is. 131 00:06:25,970 --> 00:06:26,953 It's just wet. 132 00:06:33,735 --> 00:06:34,708 I'm not doing this. 133 00:06:34,708 --> 00:06:35,930 - Sit it out for the day? 134 00:06:35,930 --> 00:06:38,463 - Yeah, it's just killin' me man. 135 00:06:39,488 --> 00:06:42,273 A year, bikes ready, I'm ready. 136 00:06:43,660 --> 00:06:45,514 My head's screwed up still yesterday. 137 00:06:45,514 --> 00:06:49,040 Seeing somebody, you see family, somebody you know crash 138 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,603 is a whole different thing. 139 00:06:53,170 --> 00:06:54,830 But the course is slow. 140 00:06:54,830 --> 00:06:56,030 I don't think it's safe. 141 00:06:57,835 --> 00:07:01,050 On a bike with almost zero suspension, it's... 142 00:07:09,090 --> 00:07:10,590 My brother having just wrecked 143 00:07:10,590 --> 00:07:14,620 and going off the the hospital and everything else, 144 00:07:14,620 --> 00:07:17,330 everything just told me it's just not safe. 145 00:07:17,330 --> 00:07:21,380 Our bikes have a very similar geometry, riding position. 146 00:07:21,380 --> 00:07:22,930 Which just offers you little control 147 00:07:22,930 --> 00:07:24,710 because you're laying down. 148 00:07:24,710 --> 00:07:29,210 Slick tires, very low profile and almost no suspension. 149 00:07:29,210 --> 00:07:32,430 I decided to pull out of line 150 00:07:32,430 --> 00:07:35,160 and I left the van there for about 20 minutes 151 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,510 before I actually moved it and fully committed. 152 00:07:39,062 --> 00:07:42,510 It's just heartbreaking and depressing. 153 00:07:42,510 --> 00:07:43,670 I think it was the right decision. 154 00:07:43,670 --> 00:07:45,427 First car that went out spun out. 155 00:07:46,460 --> 00:07:49,290 As the day's gone on there's been more of those. 156 00:07:49,290 --> 00:07:54,223 The speeds are just 30% to 50% under what they should be. 157 00:07:54,223 --> 00:07:57,737 Other riders are using the descriptive terms, 158 00:07:57,737 --> 00:08:01,840 "scary, dangerous, sketchy as hell." 159 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:06,570 You name it, bad conditions. 160 00:08:06,570 --> 00:08:09,267 - To be honest we kind of herd last night, he said, 161 00:08:09,267 --> 00:08:10,400 "You know what? 162 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,500 Let's just not run my bike." 163 00:08:12,500 --> 00:08:14,252 He said, "He's fine with that." 164 00:08:14,252 --> 00:08:16,300 So I was like, "Well, I'll just run my bike." 165 00:08:16,300 --> 00:08:17,133 - Yeah. 166 00:08:18,930 --> 00:08:21,310 - Because I'm not faster than his bike. 167 00:08:21,310 --> 00:08:22,143 - Yeah. 168 00:08:24,031 --> 00:08:26,760 - It has 100 horsepower on a four inch tire. 169 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,470 - Pretty much every one of us here, 170 00:08:28,470 --> 00:08:30,760 I think, is having this kind of conversation. 171 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:31,740 Not in the back of the line, 172 00:08:31,740 --> 00:08:33,840 because they'd sat all day yesterday and never ran, 173 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:38,460 but a lot of them might be a bit nervous. 174 00:08:38,460 --> 00:08:40,780 Their friend didn't go down also. 175 00:08:40,780 --> 00:08:42,619 - This is killing me. 176 00:08:42,619 --> 00:08:44,943 - It completely fucked my head up, man. 177 00:08:46,030 --> 00:08:47,793 I was so nervous already yesterday. 178 00:08:47,793 --> 00:08:50,773 Then it's like, Tyler's not the guy that goes down. 179 00:08:51,954 --> 00:08:55,190 I'm a decent rider, he is better than me. 180 00:08:55,190 --> 00:08:57,040 We've been doing this a lot of years, 181 00:08:58,563 --> 00:09:01,635 I've had nerves but I've never been like, nervous. 182 00:09:01,635 --> 00:09:04,150 Like I'm gonna pull out of line, 183 00:09:04,150 --> 00:09:06,324 I don't think I've ever said that. 184 00:09:06,324 --> 00:09:07,510 - I gotta do it. 185 00:09:07,510 --> 00:09:08,983 If I don't do it, I gotta do it. 186 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,450 Today was a tough day. 187 00:09:14,450 --> 00:09:19,323 Maybe the toughest day of motorcycle racing I've had. 188 00:09:19,323 --> 00:09:22,940 We were hoping for better conditions today. 189 00:09:22,940 --> 00:09:26,240 We showed up out there bright and early before dawn, 190 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,140 excited to run, ready to go. 191 00:09:29,140 --> 00:09:31,340 It was the new course, we were over the moon. 192 00:09:31,340 --> 00:09:32,260 Got out there, 193 00:09:32,260 --> 00:09:34,263 as soon as we got out of the truck it was greasy. 194 00:09:35,860 --> 00:09:37,320 We waited and waited. 195 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,973 The second car off spun badly. 196 00:09:40,970 --> 00:09:44,170 Word started coming down the line, it was greasy out there. 197 00:09:44,170 --> 00:09:47,690 We talked to an official and he wasn't very optimistic. 198 00:09:47,690 --> 00:09:49,780 He said, "This is as good as it's gonna get." 199 00:09:49,780 --> 00:09:52,117 We're like, "Well shit." 200 00:09:53,020 --> 00:09:56,209 We watched a few guys run, they were spinnin' 201 00:09:56,209 --> 00:10:00,360 and wobbling all over the place. 202 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,370 Speed Demon pulled out at the one mile. 203 00:10:03,370 --> 00:10:06,880 That really shook my confidence when they pulled out. 204 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,680 My mind started to change. 205 00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:10,240 I started to talk to my crew a little bit, 206 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,703 my wife Lori and Herb, Bill, my crew chief. 207 00:10:14,700 --> 00:10:19,260 They were all telling me maybe it's not gonna happen. 208 00:10:19,260 --> 00:10:22,034 Maybe we just gotta accept it. 209 00:10:22,034 --> 00:10:23,200 We're not gonna do it. 210 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,870 I thought about running just for fun. 211 00:10:25,870 --> 00:10:28,000 But I didn't build that bike to run just for fun, 212 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,343 I built that thing to break a record. 213 00:10:31,470 --> 00:10:34,380 It was obvious we didn't have the traction or the salt 214 00:10:34,380 --> 00:10:36,360 to get out there and break a record. 215 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:37,730 At the end of the day 216 00:10:37,730 --> 00:10:40,620 it was an ultimate hard decision I've ever had to make 217 00:10:40,620 --> 00:10:41,770 but we called it a day. 218 00:10:43,938 --> 00:10:45,830 We went back to the pits and cracked a beer, 219 00:10:45,830 --> 00:10:49,060 at I don't even know,30 in the morning 220 00:10:49,060 --> 00:10:51,200 and nursed our wounds 221 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,273 and started packing up and cleaning up. 222 00:10:56,560 --> 00:10:57,640 It's still settling in. 223 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,620 I still can't believe that's it. 224 00:10:59,620 --> 00:11:02,280 Obviously that's a big part of my decision today, 225 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:06,700 was not to put it on anybody, but seeing Tyler go down 226 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,100 I think, I don't want to steal, 227 00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:11,830 you said it best when you said 228 00:11:11,830 --> 00:11:13,432 it's like watching Superman fall. 229 00:11:13,432 --> 00:11:15,406 Like Holy shit. 230 00:11:15,406 --> 00:11:19,713 Tyler went out, he's so confident and so calm and collected. 231 00:11:22,250 --> 00:11:24,930 To hear he went down, Greg and I were in the truck. 232 00:11:24,930 --> 00:11:26,870 You just couldn't believe it. 233 00:11:26,870 --> 00:11:30,860 Then he was actually kind of hurt and the bike was trashed. 234 00:11:30,860 --> 00:11:32,410 That was a big confidence shaker. 235 00:11:32,410 --> 00:11:36,090 He said my worst situation 236 00:11:36,090 --> 00:11:38,470 where he said that the course felt good. 237 00:11:38,470 --> 00:11:40,780 He was kind of getting into it, the course was hard, 238 00:11:40,780 --> 00:11:43,930 and suddenly changed and within a second 239 00:11:43,930 --> 00:11:47,730 he was in a tank slapper and cartwheeling down the track. 240 00:11:47,730 --> 00:11:50,334 He sent me a text this morning that kind of said, 241 00:11:50,334 --> 00:11:52,960 I told him, "Oh dude, I think I'm gonna pull out." 242 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,256 He sent me a nice text that just said, 243 00:11:55,256 --> 00:11:56,563 "Don't sweat it. 244 00:11:57,407 --> 00:12:00,211 "Even he learned that you think 245 00:12:00,211 --> 00:12:02,250 you can control these situations 246 00:12:02,250 --> 00:12:04,160 and sometimes you just can't." 247 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,190 Anyway, I take that to heart 248 00:12:05,190 --> 00:12:08,533 and try not to feel too bad about quitting. 249 00:12:09,733 --> 00:12:12,660 I'm not quitting, I just didn't run today. 250 00:12:12,660 --> 00:12:14,690 I'm not quitting, we'll be back next year, 251 00:12:14,690 --> 00:12:15,890 I just didn't run today. 252 00:12:18,138 --> 00:12:20,023 His accident certainly shook me. 253 00:12:31,490 --> 00:12:33,190 - Blender's been fantastic. 254 00:12:33,190 --> 00:12:34,170 We had a little bobble right there. 255 00:12:34,170 --> 00:12:35,430 Turns out we were out of fuel. 256 00:12:35,430 --> 00:12:37,170 That's how much we've been using the blender. 257 00:12:37,170 --> 00:12:39,300 We ran through a tank of gas this week. 258 00:12:39,300 --> 00:12:41,180 I'm happy there's some other Canadians out there 259 00:12:41,180 --> 00:12:43,040 that also had a two stroke blender. 260 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,460 So Canada represent with the two stroke blender 261 00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:47,030 and the margaritas. 262 00:12:47,030 --> 00:12:50,500 Maybe it's our new, we got to rid of the Caesar 263 00:12:50,500 --> 00:12:54,753 and get the margarita for our national drink or whatever. 264 00:12:56,180 --> 00:12:57,280 The blender ran great all week. 265 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,513 We made lots and lots of margaritas. 266 00:13:01,130 --> 00:13:03,050 We're gonna make lots more tonight. 267 00:13:03,050 --> 00:13:04,350 It's gonna be great. 268 00:13:04,350 --> 00:13:05,190 Party at Bonneville, 269 00:13:05,190 --> 00:13:07,420 we always have a good time at Bonneville. 270 00:13:07,420 --> 00:13:10,537 - Here we are in the swamp lands of Nevada. 271 00:13:41,820 --> 00:13:42,653 - So good. 272 00:13:42,653 --> 00:13:43,736 - Refreshing. 273 00:18:32,409 --> 00:18:33,696 - Trying to keep it under 25. 274 00:18:33,696 --> 00:18:38,319 record qualifier, 131.713. 275 00:18:38,319 --> 00:18:40,486 - Yeah, baby. 276 00:18:42,054 --> 00:18:44,471 So stoked, what a redemption. 277 00:18:45,331 --> 00:18:46,425 131. 278 00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:47,258 - Yeah. 279 00:18:53,663 --> 00:18:54,496 - How's it feel? 280 00:18:54,496 --> 00:18:55,329 - Feel great. 281 00:18:55,329 --> 00:18:57,380 I think I'm rich because it was a little boggy. 282 00:18:57,380 --> 00:19:00,030 I had to ease on the throttle which isn't ideal 283 00:19:00,030 --> 00:19:01,300 for getting to my power band. 284 00:19:01,300 --> 00:19:05,970 But I ran like 6900 RPM which is below my power band. 285 00:19:05,970 --> 00:19:09,840 I went into the two at 132, and out of the three at 132. 286 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:11,670 I think I should be right in there. 287 00:19:11,670 --> 00:19:12,503 On that GPS. 288 00:19:15,389 --> 00:19:17,560 I think we'll just get my slip and go to impound 289 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,010 because the records only 126. 290 00:19:20,230 --> 00:19:22,103 I think I'm gonna jet down one. 291 00:19:24,370 --> 00:19:25,360 It was awesome. 292 00:19:26,781 --> 00:19:27,614 - Can you get down in there? 293 00:19:27,614 --> 00:19:28,447 - Yeah. 294 00:19:29,650 --> 00:19:31,880 I had to feather, like back out in fourth. 295 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,243 I had to back off and bring it up slow. 296 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,240 Which I know even from the dyno, just that throttle control, 297 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,380 it was just not ideal. 298 00:19:39,380 --> 00:19:41,650 But anyway, I think I'm rich 299 00:19:41,650 --> 00:19:45,440 and I think if I jet a little leaner, 300 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,060 I think I'll pick up a few miles an hour. 301 00:19:50,094 --> 00:19:51,160 It was great. 302 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,113 I felt like I was going slow, 303 00:19:52,113 --> 00:19:53,713 like I'm doing 128 or something. 304 00:19:55,145 --> 00:19:57,483 It took a little while to pull up to fourth. 305 00:19:58,970 --> 00:20:00,320 It was definitely in the two to three. 306 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,293 It was by far better than one or two. 307 00:20:04,341 --> 00:20:05,441 I think I'm just rich. 308 00:20:06,528 --> 00:20:08,510 I expected to be rich coming in. 309 00:20:08,510 --> 00:20:10,200 I thought I might bog down. 310 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,550 My first run 28 today, I only pulled 6500 RPM or something. 311 00:20:13,550 --> 00:20:15,910 Then I dropped one jet size 312 00:20:15,910 --> 00:20:17,140 and I picked up five miles and hour. 313 00:20:17,140 --> 00:20:19,000 - Everything felt good? 314 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,294 - Operated just like it should. 315 00:20:20,294 --> 00:20:21,410 - Went straight. 316 00:20:21,410 --> 00:20:22,954 - That was my run from last year. 317 00:20:22,954 --> 00:20:23,820 - That's good. 318 00:20:23,820 --> 00:20:25,797 That's what we wanna hear. 319 00:20:28,707 --> 00:20:30,340 That's a lot better. 320 00:20:30,340 --> 00:20:31,843 - Couldn't be any better. 321 00:20:32,980 --> 00:20:34,862 You said it, you did it. 322 00:20:34,862 --> 00:20:36,850 - That was redemption for all the time in the garage. 323 00:20:36,850 --> 00:20:38,830 - Fuck yeah. 324 00:20:38,830 --> 00:20:41,853 - First run felt great, course is great. 325 00:20:43,378 --> 00:20:45,053 - Did it qualify? 326 00:20:45,053 --> 00:20:45,900 - I think so. 327 00:20:45,900 --> 00:20:47,200 Is it over 126 and a half? 328 00:20:48,270 --> 00:20:49,753 My GPS said 132. 329 00:20:51,051 --> 00:20:51,884 - 131.7 330 00:20:53,101 --> 00:20:53,934 - Perfect. 331 00:20:56,184 --> 00:20:57,017 That's a start. 332 00:20:57,017 --> 00:20:58,200 - I can't even read, 713. 333 00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,120 - Awesome, that's great. 334 00:20:59,120 --> 00:21:01,700 I went into the two at 132 on my little GPS 335 00:21:01,700 --> 00:21:04,660 and came out at 132 so I Was hoping it was 131, 336 00:21:04,660 --> 00:21:05,650 it better be. 337 00:21:05,650 --> 00:21:06,900 If I come over here and it's 125 338 00:21:06,900 --> 00:21:08,737 I'm gonna be fricken' pissed. 339 00:21:09,578 --> 00:21:12,002 - One for impound and two for you. 340 00:21:12,002 --> 00:21:12,914 - Thank you so much. 341 00:21:12,914 --> 00:21:13,747 - You're welcome. 342 00:21:13,747 --> 00:21:14,580 - See you again. 343 00:21:16,790 --> 00:21:18,250 So mile two, thank you. 344 00:21:18,250 --> 00:21:20,143 Mile two, 126 and a half. 345 00:21:21,230 --> 00:21:23,680 Two and a quarter, 131. 346 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,090 That's a nice tick up. 347 00:21:25,090 --> 00:21:26,600 We got into the power band then. 348 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:27,950 131.2 at the two and a quarter. 349 00:21:27,950 --> 00:21:29,610 131.7 at the three. 350 00:21:29,610 --> 00:21:32,451 So I came into the two five miles under. 351 00:21:32,451 --> 00:21:33,930 It was rich too. 352 00:21:33,930 --> 00:21:37,233 I gotta drop a jet and I gotta pick up a few miles an hour, 353 00:21:38,340 --> 00:21:39,650 I think. 354 00:21:39,650 --> 00:21:41,097 I was really excited last year to get one run 355 00:21:41,097 --> 00:21:43,040 and I wanted to go right into impound. 356 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,280 Got three quarters of a mile down the course, wrecked, 357 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:46,460 went to the hospital, surgery, 358 00:21:46,460 --> 00:21:48,580 months of dealing with all that stuff. 359 00:21:48,580 --> 00:21:51,640 So it's a big deal to get back out here this year 360 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:56,640 and I'm super stoked because my best case scenario 361 00:21:57,980 --> 00:22:00,820 was to do one run, go right into impound 362 00:22:00,820 --> 00:22:01,950 and that's exactly what happened. 363 00:22:01,950 --> 00:22:05,970 It performed, it was actually running rich, which is fine, 364 00:22:05,970 --> 00:22:07,510 so I'll be able to go a little faster, 365 00:22:07,510 --> 00:22:12,510 but I did 132.7 on a 126.455 or so record. 366 00:22:14,270 --> 00:22:15,730 So I'm pretty stoked on that. 367 00:22:15,730 --> 00:22:17,290 I know there's more in there. 368 00:22:17,290 --> 00:22:19,573 I think I can pull, at least, 369 00:22:19,573 --> 00:22:22,110 for sure three or four more miles an hour out of it 370 00:22:22,110 --> 00:22:23,713 and try and get that record up. 371 00:22:25,042 --> 00:22:26,890 I feel great, it makes all the work worthwhile 372 00:22:26,890 --> 00:22:28,748 when I get the results I want. 373 00:24:21,630 --> 00:24:24,447 - Three mile speed 129.293. 374 00:24:24,447 --> 00:24:27,740 Congratulations to Tyler Malinky, Lowbrow Customs, 375 00:24:27,740 --> 00:24:29,762 on your record backup. 376 00:24:40,630 --> 00:24:42,283 - Yup, that will do it. 377 00:24:42,283 --> 00:24:45,169 126 and a half is the record for Tyler, 378 00:24:45,169 --> 00:24:47,100 the record he was running on. 379 00:24:47,100 --> 00:24:51,840 Yesterday's 131.713 and today's 129.293 380 00:24:52,890 --> 00:24:56,870 averages out to about a 130 and a half or thereabouts. 381 00:24:56,870 --> 00:25:00,570 That's four miles and hour on yesterday's old record, 382 00:25:00,570 --> 00:25:03,335 so congratulations to Tyler Malinky. 383 00:25:03,335 --> 00:25:07,303 715, yeah. 384 00:25:07,303 --> 00:25:09,140 - Got 128 at the two, 385 00:25:09,140 --> 00:25:10,940 129.2 and the two and a quarter. 386 00:25:10,940 --> 00:25:13,063 Almost dead to the three. 387 00:25:13,970 --> 00:25:14,900 - It just held. 388 00:25:14,900 --> 00:25:15,864 - Yeah. 389 00:25:15,864 --> 00:25:17,740 With the lower gearing I would expect that. 390 00:25:17,740 --> 00:25:19,053 I get to the top. 391 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,710 That's top speed for the RPM I could pull 392 00:25:22,710 --> 00:25:25,290 based on being too rich and that gearing. 393 00:25:25,290 --> 00:25:28,080 That's geared for 136 and I had 129. 394 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,760 I was running seven grand instead of 72, or 7250. 395 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,460 So that's easily a few more horsepower 396 00:25:35,460 --> 00:25:37,440 in those couple hundred RPM. 397 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,147 So same sprocket, adjust the chain, 398 00:25:40,147 --> 00:25:42,943 drop one main jet, go running. 399 00:25:44,310 --> 00:25:45,401 - 135. 400 00:25:45,401 --> 00:25:47,520 - After we go in and get the record certification. 401 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:48,353 - Which shouldn't take long. 402 00:25:48,353 --> 00:25:50,248 - Should take five minutes hopefully, 403 00:25:50,248 --> 00:25:51,528 with the engine being sealed. 404 00:25:53,700 --> 00:25:58,180 First day, did a nice clean run. 405 00:25:58,180 --> 00:26:01,650 Did a 131.7 on that 126 record. 406 00:26:01,650 --> 00:26:05,590 Did a little jetting, tuning, adjusted my rear chain. 407 00:26:05,590 --> 00:26:09,800 Ran again in the morning and ran 129 or something. 408 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,976 Wasn't a great run, but it was pretty good. 409 00:26:11,976 --> 00:26:16,800 Got that record at 130.508 I think it is. 410 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:17,633 That's a new record. 411 00:26:17,633 --> 00:26:18,760 Did a couple more runs. 412 00:26:20,110 --> 00:26:22,410 I really wanted to get to 135, but I just wasn't there. 413 00:26:22,410 --> 00:26:24,470 I was maxing the bike out running real consistent 414 00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:27,440 131 for two miles straight. 415 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,202 Just holding that speed, 416 00:26:29,202 --> 00:26:31,970 wasn't pulling the last few hundred RPM I wanted to get. 417 00:26:31,970 --> 00:26:34,130 So we ended up retacking for fuel class. 418 00:26:34,130 --> 00:26:35,997 I did a class change where for that 419 00:26:35,997 --> 00:26:38,530 all I had to do was switch out to a fuel petcock 420 00:26:38,530 --> 00:26:39,930 that's got a tether here. 421 00:26:39,930 --> 00:26:41,370 You turn the petcock on like normal, 422 00:26:41,370 --> 00:26:43,530 it has a solid lock with a pin, 423 00:26:43,530 --> 00:26:44,710 then to shut the petcock off, 424 00:26:44,710 --> 00:26:47,140 the only way is to use the lever on the bars. 425 00:26:47,140 --> 00:26:48,580 So you can be riding, if you have a problem, 426 00:26:48,580 --> 00:26:50,470 you catch on fire, or think you're gonna catch on fire, 427 00:26:50,470 --> 00:26:51,640 you have a fuel leak, 428 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,594 you can stay in control of the machine, 429 00:26:53,594 --> 00:26:55,810 kill your fuel for safety. 430 00:26:55,810 --> 00:26:57,260 I was reinspected for that. 431 00:26:57,260 --> 00:27:02,260 That record from 2002, it was 121 and change. 432 00:27:02,500 --> 00:27:04,270 My goal was to get it over 130. 433 00:27:04,270 --> 00:27:06,760 I ran on it yesterday, late in the day it was real hot, 434 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,053 maybe 80 degrees or so. 435 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,036 It was running real good through the two and a quarter, 436 00:27:31,036 --> 00:27:34,580 I was basically at 130 and would normally pick up from there 437 00:27:34,580 --> 00:27:38,350 and I was loosing some RPMs the last half mile. 438 00:27:38,350 --> 00:27:41,890 Ran, I think it was 127.8. 439 00:27:41,890 --> 00:27:43,520 Which is okay. 440 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:44,530 I wasn't exactly happy about it, 441 00:27:44,530 --> 00:27:46,860 I was kind of pissy about it . 442 00:27:46,860 --> 00:27:49,810 We went through the bike, the plugs looked pretty lean. 443 00:27:49,810 --> 00:27:52,800 Jetted a little bit richer, really went through the carbs, 444 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,130 tuned 'em up, went over the whole bike. 445 00:27:55,130 --> 00:27:56,110 Really feel all the hardware, 446 00:27:56,110 --> 00:27:57,830 make sure there's nothing loose, nothing's cracked. 447 00:27:57,830 --> 00:27:59,955 There's not something that'll be a safety issue. 448 00:27:59,955 --> 00:28:01,670 Got the bike running real nice. 449 00:28:01,670 --> 00:28:03,020 Ran this morning. 450 00:28:03,020 --> 00:28:05,310 I really had to gas it off the line, which is not normal. 451 00:28:05,310 --> 00:28:09,350 I had to feather the clutch, really rev it up to get going, 452 00:28:09,350 --> 00:28:11,334 it almost fell on it's face, then it took off. 453 00:28:31,310 --> 00:28:34,430 But I basically did 125. 454 00:28:34,430 --> 00:28:36,350 Otherwise it was a really solid run. 455 00:28:36,350 --> 00:28:38,330 Technique was good, shifts were good. 456 00:28:38,330 --> 00:28:39,829 It's just, that's what it would do. 457 00:28:39,829 --> 00:28:41,080 I'm thinking, I won't know 458 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,590 until I pull the engine, pull the head, 459 00:28:42,590 --> 00:28:46,050 but I'm pretty sure I must have slightly bend a valve, 460 00:28:46,050 --> 00:28:48,210 or more likely because I'm only running 461 00:28:48,210 --> 00:28:50,020 six or seven miles slower than peak, 462 00:28:50,020 --> 00:28:51,680 that I might have nicked a valve. 463 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,180 Might have caught the edge of a valve pocket 464 00:28:53,180 --> 00:28:55,750 from valve float or a little over rev. 465 00:28:55,750 --> 00:28:56,830 I'll find that out when I get home, 466 00:28:56,830 --> 00:28:58,420 I'll pull the engine, I'll pull the head off, 467 00:28:58,420 --> 00:29:00,360 inspect it, clear the pistons as necessary 468 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,250 so it doesn't happen again, and that's how you learn. 469 00:29:02,250 --> 00:29:03,900 That's exactly racing. 470 00:29:03,900 --> 00:29:05,395 I've got two records this week. 471 00:29:05,395 --> 00:29:06,900 Bumped one of my own up, 472 00:29:06,900 --> 00:29:09,661 took another record and bumped it over five miles an hour. 473 00:29:09,661 --> 00:29:12,377 It's good because there's more there for this bike, 474 00:29:12,377 --> 00:29:14,127 for this engine, for those records. 475 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:16,790 All in all it was a great week. 476 00:29:16,790 --> 00:29:18,210 - Come on, you wanna eat those. 477 00:29:18,210 --> 00:29:19,043 - I do wanna eat those. 478 00:29:19,043 --> 00:29:20,830 - Take 'em. 479 00:29:20,830 --> 00:29:22,970 - Here, we're paying for 'em. 480 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,640 - Some COVID cash. 481 00:29:29,990 --> 00:29:31,707 - I texted him, yum, yum, yum. 482 00:29:34,929 --> 00:29:36,322 Those look good, what is this? 483 00:29:36,322 --> 00:29:39,250 A little cheesy, oh prosciutto with mozzarella. 484 00:29:39,250 --> 00:29:40,490 - Prosciutto with mozzarella 485 00:29:40,490 --> 00:29:41,323 what's that? 486 00:29:41,323 --> 00:29:42,156 - It's a beer. 487 00:29:43,070 --> 00:29:45,290 - It's great, it's gonna go really well. 488 00:29:45,290 --> 00:29:46,537 - Dinner. 489 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,650 - It was interesting when I was talking with Tyler 490 00:29:54,650 --> 00:29:56,400 when he said he was coming to race, 491 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,833 originally I said, maybe I'll come. 492 00:30:01,780 --> 00:30:05,330 I guess the entire time he was thinking I was coming to race 493 00:30:05,330 --> 00:30:08,140 and I just was gonna come out and support. 494 00:30:08,140 --> 00:30:12,530 I figured I'd do a 10 day camping trip and help crew 495 00:30:12,530 --> 00:30:14,740 and everything else, but then as the week went on, 496 00:30:14,740 --> 00:30:17,076 of course I started thinking, my bike is so ready. 497 00:30:17,076 --> 00:30:19,909 Maybe I should just go. 498 00:30:19,909 --> 00:30:22,040 It snowballed quickly 499 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,830 where I started getting everything together, 500 00:30:24,830 --> 00:30:27,990 but I did not make up my mind until I did my dyno session 501 00:30:27,990 --> 00:30:30,420 and everything was just 100%. 502 00:30:30,420 --> 00:30:32,847 I just said, "Hell with it, I'm going." 503 00:30:34,430 --> 00:30:36,450 That definitely affected 504 00:30:36,450 --> 00:30:38,653 how you thought coming out this year. 505 00:30:39,536 --> 00:30:41,490 I actually didn't even preregister 506 00:30:41,490 --> 00:30:45,641 because I wanted to see the salt with my own eyes before. 507 00:30:45,641 --> 00:30:49,640 I would have driven 1800 miles and left my bike in the truck 508 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,800 if I didn't feel it was safe to run. 509 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,550 We got onto the salt and I saw how hard it was 510 00:30:54,550 --> 00:30:59,550 and dry and there was no question I was racing. 511 00:31:00,490 --> 00:31:02,640 But even that first run, 512 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,477 on top of all the other things in your head, 513 00:31:04,477 --> 00:31:07,380 and the fact that I haven't ridden this bike in a year 514 00:31:07,380 --> 00:31:11,190 and just all these things, of course you're thinking 515 00:31:11,190 --> 00:31:12,960 my brother wrecked last year, 516 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,500 there's a real weight to it. 517 00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:17,853 You know it's dangerous. 518 00:31:24,090 --> 00:31:27,320 Go to start the bike and I'm in a hurry. 519 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:28,500 I'm trying to slow myself down, 520 00:31:28,500 --> 00:31:30,430 but it's all nerves and adrenaline. 521 00:31:30,430 --> 00:31:33,203 Get up to the line and they clear me to go, 522 00:31:39,510 --> 00:31:42,090 I go a couple feet, stall out past the line. 523 00:31:42,090 --> 00:31:43,780 So of course then it's like, give me the kicked back, 524 00:31:43,780 --> 00:31:45,660 start the bike back up. 525 00:31:45,660 --> 00:31:46,970 At this point I'm breathing heavy, 526 00:31:46,970 --> 00:31:50,200 my visor's fogging up, go again. 527 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,790 So I take off, make sure obviously 528 00:31:52,790 --> 00:31:56,520 I don't do the same thing again, a little more throttle. 529 00:32:09,380 --> 00:32:11,713 Just go down track, focus on my shifts. 530 00:32:12,910 --> 00:32:14,710 After that it was fine, it was a clean run. 531 00:32:14,710 --> 00:32:17,279 But first time on the salt, 532 00:32:17,279 --> 00:32:19,970 two years since I had raced on the salt. 533 00:32:19,970 --> 00:32:22,460 Killed the motor after the three mile, pull off 534 00:32:22,460 --> 00:32:25,060 and I'm just trying to rip and get my gear off 535 00:32:25,060 --> 00:32:27,680 because at that point I'm pouring sweat. 536 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,310 It's 45, 50 degrees out when I ran, 537 00:32:31,310 --> 00:32:33,200 and I'm just soaked. 538 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:34,780 That was the first run. 539 00:32:34,780 --> 00:32:36,693 Every run after that just got, 540 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,610 I'm standing at the line joking around. 541 00:32:39,610 --> 00:32:43,279 I'm calm, I'm ready, I know the bike's right. 542 00:32:43,279 --> 00:32:45,670 Gets easier every run. 543 00:32:45,670 --> 00:32:46,983 I did six runs total. 544 00:32:48,270 --> 00:32:50,040 Just some minor things. 545 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:51,350 Early on I decided 546 00:32:51,350 --> 00:32:53,030 I wasn't quite pulling the gearing I wanted 547 00:32:53,030 --> 00:32:54,773 so I added a tooth to the rear. 548 00:32:55,879 --> 00:32:58,170 Which has consistently raised my speeds. 549 00:32:58,170 --> 00:33:02,370 At that point I was in the 129 range. 550 00:33:02,370 --> 00:33:07,370 The record I'm running for is 130.73 so it's close. 551 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:12,760 You gotta understand that mile and a half an hour, 552 00:33:12,910 --> 00:33:15,150 out here is huge. 553 00:33:15,150 --> 00:33:20,150 That record has been standing for nine years now. 554 00:33:20,627 --> 00:33:23,700 It's tall for a Triumph. 555 00:33:23,700 --> 00:33:28,100 Let's see here, so damn close. 556 00:33:28,100 --> 00:33:29,380 I'm over 130 man. 557 00:33:29,380 --> 00:33:31,210 But I broke my tachometer. 558 00:33:31,210 --> 00:33:32,043 - Really? 559 00:33:32,043 --> 00:33:33,834 - I did this all by feel. 560 00:33:33,834 --> 00:33:36,290 It said I was doing 5500 RPMs. 561 00:33:36,290 --> 00:33:38,910 Which I wasn't, I knew I wasn't. 562 00:33:38,910 --> 00:33:40,910 - Got that buck 30 number though, dude. 563 00:33:40,910 --> 00:33:42,620 - Yeah, a little bit faster at the quarter, 564 00:33:42,620 --> 00:33:44,610 but then again this is where my tachometer broke. 565 00:33:44,610 --> 00:33:47,613 Two and a half and I hit that big ditch. 566 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:52,130 So I broke 130 in the salt which is huge. 567 00:33:52,130 --> 00:33:55,183 That's such a personal goal. 568 00:33:55,183 --> 00:33:57,018 But all those runs, 569 00:33:57,018 --> 00:34:01,573 they were all within plus of minus .5 miles per hour. 570 00:34:02,930 --> 00:34:06,450 Basically I have 130 mile an hour bike on the salt. 571 00:34:06,450 --> 00:34:08,930 It's 136 plus on concrete. 572 00:34:08,930 --> 00:34:12,140 But it just shows you the altitude, the traction, 573 00:34:12,140 --> 00:34:13,910 even with the longer course here, 574 00:34:13,910 --> 00:34:18,910 even having three miles, man, it's hard. 575 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,453 It's a difficult racing environment. 576 00:34:21,453 --> 00:34:26,453 Basically I did my last run here this morning. 577 00:34:27,020 --> 00:34:29,930 I pretty much already decided I'm gonna go out 578 00:34:29,930 --> 00:34:33,100 and if I have a clean run and I give it all it can 579 00:34:33,100 --> 00:34:34,930 that would most likely be it. 580 00:34:34,930 --> 00:34:38,510 I went out this morning and again ran right about 130 581 00:34:38,510 --> 00:34:40,530 and it's so close to the record, 582 00:34:40,530 --> 00:34:43,010 but I could probably go do this 10 more times 583 00:34:43,010 --> 00:34:44,440 and it's just beating me up physically, 584 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:45,750 it's beating the bike up. 585 00:34:45,750 --> 00:34:47,040 It's just not there. 586 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:52,040 So close but out here you have to make it to qualify, 587 00:34:52,380 --> 00:34:55,582 then you have to back it up, they take the average. 588 00:34:55,582 --> 00:34:58,503 It's just the chances of me getting it, 589 00:34:58,503 --> 00:35:01,160 I just do not feel it's there. 590 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:04,050 That last run was textbook perfect. 591 00:35:04,050 --> 00:35:06,160 The bike was perfect, the course was great, 592 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:07,123 the wind was dead. 593 00:35:08,580 --> 00:35:10,343 It's just not there. 594 00:35:11,270 --> 00:35:14,653 It's probably whiskey time, yeah. 595 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,770 - So real sad that at speed week, 596 00:35:25,770 --> 00:35:26,660 I think it was on the last day, 597 00:35:26,660 --> 00:35:31,660 Ralph Hudson crashed his bike on shutdown 598 00:35:31,809 --> 00:35:33,523 after backing up a record. 599 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,770 I guess there was decent cross winds 600 00:35:37,770 --> 00:35:38,790 and he lost control of his bike, 601 00:35:38,790 --> 00:35:41,344 came off at over 250 miles an hour. 602 00:35:41,344 --> 00:35:43,120 He was life flighted to Salt Lake 603 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,000 and ended up not making it. 604 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,200 A few weeks later he passed because of that. 605 00:35:48,124 --> 00:35:52,530 It's a big loss for everyone here, for everyone. 606 00:35:52,530 --> 00:35:55,730 He was an awesome guy, super nice. 607 00:35:55,730 --> 00:35:57,440 Anyone who knew him will say the same. 608 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:58,320 He was just such a great guy. 609 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,960 Creative and fast. 610 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,210 The fastest motorcyclist in the world. 611 00:36:03,210 --> 00:36:05,330 He ran in Bolivia a couple times, 612 00:36:05,330 --> 00:36:07,200 there was an organized land speed meet there 613 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,710 for some of the fastest guys in the world. 614 00:36:08,710 --> 00:36:10,970 Salt Flat Bolivia at 1200 foot elevation. 615 00:36:10,970 --> 00:36:12,680 Super smooth and dry 616 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,340 but really high elevation which is a challenge. 617 00:36:15,340 --> 00:36:18,900 He set a two way average of 299, I think, and change. 618 00:36:18,900 --> 00:36:21,490 I think his top one way speed was 304, 619 00:36:21,490 --> 00:36:24,940 I might be wrong on that, but basically fast. 620 00:36:24,940 --> 00:36:25,819 Super fast. 621 00:36:25,819 --> 00:36:27,810 He set that record here at speed week, 622 00:36:27,810 --> 00:36:30,733 but ended up dying because of it. 623 00:36:34,062 --> 00:36:35,176 What can you do? 624 00:36:35,176 --> 00:36:37,410 That's life. 625 00:36:37,410 --> 00:36:40,220 There was a great memorial here the other morning 626 00:36:40,220 --> 00:36:42,330 where a bunch of racers 627 00:36:42,330 --> 00:36:44,940 gathered out on the salt before sunrise. 628 00:36:44,940 --> 00:36:47,530 Talk about Ralph, had a little candle vigil 629 00:36:47,530 --> 00:36:49,260 and we all watched the sun rise. 630 00:36:49,260 --> 00:36:52,163 Some people shared some words and it was super touching. 631 00:36:54,173 --> 00:36:56,773 - I'm really glad that you all could make it. 632 00:36:59,380 --> 00:37:03,680 Sunrise was a really important time for Ironwood Racing 633 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,060 because we all know that when we got to watch the sun rise 634 00:37:07,060 --> 00:37:10,830 on the salt, it means that we've qualified for a record, 635 00:37:10,830 --> 00:37:13,463 which is what we all want to do here. 636 00:37:15,610 --> 00:37:17,350 I'm really grateful that I got to watch 637 00:37:17,350 --> 00:37:20,293 so many sunrises with Ralph. 638 00:37:21,530 --> 00:37:24,490 May those who morn be blessed with a comfort 639 00:37:24,490 --> 00:37:27,563 of the love we've shared and continue to share. 640 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,800 May we face each new day with the hope and the certainty 641 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,393 that nothing can destroy the good that has been given. 642 00:37:38,070 --> 00:37:41,640 May the memories unfold us as prayers for life 643 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,520 and inspire us. 644 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:49,343 May the first breath of each morning begin life again. 645 00:37:50,939 --> 00:37:54,080 May the sweet light of change and possibility 646 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,343 illuminate the darkness. 647 00:37:57,790 --> 00:38:00,433 May their love fill the silence. 648 00:38:02,122 --> 00:38:07,122 May the memories of those who have passed become joyful. 649 00:38:07,270 --> 00:38:09,600 Our days enriched by the friendships 650 00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:13,300 and our lives enriched by their love. 651 00:38:19,207 --> 00:38:21,699 - You all have this cup, right? 652 00:38:21,699 --> 00:38:23,530 You see this cup? 653 00:38:23,530 --> 00:38:26,123 I don't see any that look like my cup. 654 00:38:27,890 --> 00:38:29,389 - Mine does. 655 00:38:29,389 --> 00:38:30,654 - No, it'd different. 656 00:38:30,654 --> 00:38:32,025 - I have one, it's right here. 657 00:38:32,025 --> 00:38:33,033 He's holding one. 658 00:38:33,033 --> 00:38:35,210 - Yes, it's different. 659 00:38:35,210 --> 00:38:37,180 But it's how you look at it. 660 00:38:37,180 --> 00:38:41,330 You know as important as the cup is, it's nothing. 661 00:38:42,890 --> 00:38:44,700 It's a shell. 662 00:38:44,700 --> 00:38:48,703 Because what's important is what's inside the cup, you see? 663 00:38:48,703 --> 00:38:51,300 Some of you got coffee, some of you got tea, 664 00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:53,233 some of you got Pepsi. 665 00:38:56,230 --> 00:39:00,070 What you put in the cup is what you share with others, 666 00:39:00,070 --> 00:39:01,197 what you pour out. 667 00:39:05,010 --> 00:39:06,060 Those of you that know me 668 00:39:06,060 --> 00:39:08,053 know my cup's pretty much full of shit. 669 00:39:09,740 --> 00:39:14,740 I say that because I'm who I am for opportunities like this. 670 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:24,120 My cup looks better and sometimes it's not fitting, 671 00:39:25,240 --> 00:39:29,280 but you'll notice that there's a sweetness inside there. 672 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:30,983 Stacy did, Ralph did. 673 00:39:33,570 --> 00:39:38,570 What Ralph taught me, if you've never felt this, 674 00:39:40,740 --> 00:39:44,810 if you've never, I swear. 675 00:39:44,810 --> 00:39:48,048 My Harley's been on a trailer for seven years 676 00:39:48,048 --> 00:39:50,493 because I can't stop this. 677 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,240 Jumping an intersection at 85 miles an hour 678 00:39:55,240 --> 00:39:57,490 with the front wheel in the air, 679 00:39:57,490 --> 00:40:01,590 and my inner voice said 680 00:40:01,590 --> 00:40:04,540 if you do it again, I was gonna set up a camera, 681 00:40:04,540 --> 00:40:06,350 I'll throw you to the ground. 682 00:40:06,350 --> 00:40:07,650 So I put her on a trailer. 683 00:40:08,780 --> 00:40:10,670 We might race it, we don't know. 684 00:40:10,670 --> 00:40:14,010 But listen to what's inside you. 685 00:40:14,010 --> 00:40:15,423 Know what's in your cup. 686 00:40:17,610 --> 00:40:20,420 Ralph, he lived. 687 00:40:20,420 --> 00:40:22,433 And he filled these cups. 688 00:40:23,466 --> 00:40:28,466 Once you share what's in the cup, it goes into someone else. 689 00:40:30,100 --> 00:40:32,890 Ralph, he's moved on somewhere else, 690 00:40:32,890 --> 00:40:36,133 but he poured something inside of each of us. 691 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:38,950 So he's still here 692 00:40:38,950 --> 00:40:41,970 and he'll live on forever through each of us. 693 00:40:47,180 --> 00:40:48,509 - Can you feel it? 694 00:40:48,509 --> 00:40:49,842 Can you feel it? 695 00:41:53,993 --> 00:41:56,393 - A dancer, a romancer. 696 00:41:57,860 --> 00:42:00,743 I'm a Capricorn, she's a cancer. 697 00:42:01,660 --> 00:42:03,726 What? I just greased 'em. 698 00:42:05,567 --> 00:42:07,513 that's all I got, sorry. 699 00:42:09,730 --> 00:42:11,210 - You had one job. 700 00:42:11,210 --> 00:42:13,483 - One job to do and I screwed it up. 701 00:42:16,090 --> 00:42:17,720 - Hi, I'm Kyle from Lowbrow Customs 702 00:42:17,720 --> 00:42:21,573 and I'm here on Bonneville Salt Flats 2019 Speed Week. 703 00:42:33,720 --> 00:42:35,800 - Yeah, I heard Kyle's selling his bike. 704 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,750 Said hit him up on Instagram, DM him. 705 00:42:40,893 --> 00:42:42,586 3200 bucks, race ready. 706 00:42:53,274 --> 00:42:54,365 - Yeah, doing all right. 707 00:42:54,365 --> 00:42:56,528 - Are there any sharks here? 708 00:42:56,528 --> 00:42:57,361 - Hang 10. 709 00:42:57,361 --> 00:42:58,626 - I don't know if I can do that. 710 00:42:58,626 --> 00:42:59,743 -
