Dang man. You are one helluva photographer.

Thanks 😍 I consider it a hobby but have made a little play money doing it. For a while I was shooting for a local airshow every year. Came with some cool perks like full access to the flightline and even scored a ride in Nanchang CJ6. A few airshow shots.

I don't know how it's even possible to capture these high speed images with such clarity!

Practice! 🤣 there's a lot of crappy ones where those came from!

Those are amazing 👏
 
My other passion that is more of a lifestyle than a hobby is land speed racing. I like to see how fast I can make a slow machine. Building a turbo Hyabusa is fun but not challenging till you hit 250+ mph. And that is a little to expensive for me. So I picked a 250 Ninja from Kawasaki and spent about twelve years modifying it to go as fast as it can in one mile of pavement.

It’s a 250 cc four stroke with a 30 shot of nitrous.
I run with and without a fairing.

So far I have gone 123+ mph and feel I can find ten more mph if I had the money.

Fun videos
Walk around


123 at the Ohio mile

Making 55 hp on the dyno after two weeks of dyno work.

Bikes are so fun once you get over 100mph. I hit 135+ on one one time and it was surreal, but scary as hell.
 
I like bikes too 😉
 
I have never ridden the 14. Seems like a beast.
I bought it as a cosmetic wreck with 3K miles and rebuilt it. The performance was on another level to say the least, 106mph on the limiter in 1st gear lol. I know that sounds ridiculous to the cement truck riders but google that poop. I only had it on the top speed limiter once at 186mph. I won't lie,it was wonderful and terrifying at the same time.
I roasted many a "fast" bike with it.
