BFR Track Record?

[tshort]

Anyone know what it is these days?  

Also, can any of the Unlimited/Heavyweight folks tell me what it generally takes in terms of lap times to podium in any of their classes?

Thanks.

ps - don't worry, I'm not thinking about moving up or anything.  ;) :D

It was 1:09:89 last year by Larry Denning on an R1, but I think it might have been broken in August or September?  I can't remember...

Solid low 1:13's can put you on the podium in most EX middleweight races.  Might not win on them, but it'll get you wood fairly easily.

Mark Junge, Wegman weekend, 1:09:6 something last year

Thanks for the updates, Andy and Hez.  

Now how about you liter bike pilots?  What's it take to get on the box on a good CCS weekend?

1:12s and 1:13s will do it.  Wegman weekend last year called for 1:12s and 1:13s for top ten in alot of classes, though. Greg placed on his 600 in top 3 in HW and Unlimited several times.

That sounds about right.  At the end of last year, I was running 1:13s-1:15s and could get in the top 10 but not the top 5.

The Wegman weekend last year was crazy.  It was a blast with that many people and boy were they fast.  In the UNLGP race, I never fought so hard for 22nd place.  :D  That was also the race where the record was broken.

Larry's time was from 2003 on his R1.  Mark's time was from 2004.

Few guys on unlimited bikes go faster than the 600's, and when they do, it isn't by much.  I know that you need to do low 12's to be up front on a non manufacturer contingency race at BFR.  

In July, I ran 11's through lapped traffic in Unlimited Grand Prix on my 600.

These days?

Things change year after year that allow the times to come down.  Tires, most noteably.

Get Mladin here with his bike, and the time would come down more...

Thanks, everyone. Most helpful.
