It's a lot of fun. Cheap date night with my bike. I wanted to go to the 1/8 mile track but the V twin guys convinced me that the 1/4 is a little safer with a nice long finish. The best advice I was given was "Take off like your at a stop light and then get on it. Matching clutch release with throttle twist." That's when I improved. Avoid flipping it cause man does mine like to pull up.
