Jersey Jake Johnson rips at Perris

Zanotti Racing was at Perris getting tuned up for the coming season. Dave Zanotti, Jake and Wayne and J.T. worked with the Race Tech guys getting the Honda hooking up on all kinds of track conditions.

It was Jakes first time riding at the So Cal short track and he liked it and was having fun cutting mid 14 second laps. They worked on a dry slick set up for the upcoming Daytona opener and everything in between from tacky to wet. They say there is no better practice than seat time and Jake got plenty ,pushing himself all day and only quitting when it was just too dark to see.

 Smooth and FAST

 So Cal sunshine makes for a fun day at the track

 Back'er in

 and adjust your speed with a little front wheel push to keep your momentum up

rather than squaring it up and loosing time.

 Do three or four laps and come in a make small adjustments to one end at a time.

The Race Tech guys wrenched hard all day long and Jake was happy and hauling.

Run what ya brung Hot Rod drags

Got Sand ?

I saw this shot of Pre Dakar practice and I'm jonesing to get out and ride some washes.

South of Ocatillo and the 8 we have some awesome white sand washes that go for miles and miles.

The wind blows east at night and flattens them out perfectly smooth. You can bomb the corners with big beautiful feet up slides.

Haulers III

 Perfect combo, nice Trumpet on a clean Ranchero.

 Let that ol'Hog bring up the rear.

 Another Ranchero towing classic dirt machines.

 Miss seeing this rig in the pits at every National. When Joe Kopp  retired from the GNC, it was the end of another classic era.

 Hot Wheels never miss an opportunity to put flames on anything.

 Lenny shows off the fastest Triumph 500 on the West Coast.

Sunday morning tradition.

Where theres a will.....
