Hello everyone!
My name is Bryan Bennett,I am 48,married --wife Debbie 26 + yrs,2 girls ,Kim 12 and Krystal 17 we are from southern Illinois(Herrin)I used to race a kawasaki Funny Bike in Prostar and IDBA.12x 29 Goodyear,86" wheel base on Gasoline(VP air race)EFI,Progressive nitrous and boost(45 PSI),garrett turbo with 2 36lb/hr injectors per cylinder on 4 Hilborne throttle bodies.I won #1 plates in 1999 and 2000.My personal best ET is 6.62.My best mph is 214 at Rockingham in 99.My best 1/8 mile ET is 4.23 at 177 mph at Memphis.
I live 6 miles from Buddy Ingersol.His son Mark Ingersol(Alan Johnsons crew chief) has a house in Herrin.Buddy inspired me with his turbo regal several yrs ago.
I am intrigued with new technolgy and like to keep up on it as much as I can.

Welcome to the Mater, Bryan. What did you do with the bike?

bryan , do u happen to know if tony williams still works with prostar,( starting line prep etc etc)

Yes Tony Williams does still work for Prostar.He is the best at getting the starting line to hook.Everone respects him.
Prostar is under new ownership.New owners took over after a couple races this season.Doing things alittle differently-for the better too I believe.

I sold the bike and trailer to a guy from Tulsa ,Ok-Gene Langley--works for some big airline repairing /replacing/maintainance of the aluminum skin.He went 6.70 on it.
I believe it has been setting for the last couple seasons.

It does take some getting used to.From the starting line the track looks as wide as a football field--at the finishline it looks as narrow as a railroad rail and you want to stay on top of it.

yeah tony is the shi**** at preparing the surface!! i havent talked to him for yrs now.

How ya doing Bryan! Man, it's been awhile since we've seen you at the races. The last time I ran across you was 3 or 4 years go at Prostar Indy, or Memphis, I think. Heck, I could be wrong on both acounts. Short term memory aint as good as it used to be pal!
What are you riding these days for excitement? Sure would be great to see you back at the track in whatever capacity. Keck, scarf up a Honda-matic and we'll match race ya with old Vic Force!

STEVE HALLER>>>> Did you used to buy drag racing memorabilia from me?

tony, check your private messages sorry it took so long for me to see your post

Hello Tony,
I am not riding anything but am trying to help a guy from near St.Louis with a FB--it has potential.It has had some really good short numbers(2.87 330) with should equate to a low 6.70 pass. He lacks the experience to go for a full pass yet-he had been creeping up on it though.A couple weeks ago he got it out of shape and on the frame rails and ground all the way through the frame on bottom.Luckily he stayed on it untill it was almost stopped then it high sided and pitched him off.He is sore but no real injuries.
I keep trying to tell him---dont do as I did--do as I say.
anyway good to hear from you and hopefully I will see you in G-ville.I want to go look at the MORGAN BIKE--I applied for the seat on it but got turned down.
Later ,Bryan
