Seventh heaven for Mitchell

From Go Fast Media

TORONTO, ON -- The Hindle Canadian Fastest Streetbike Shootout went off with a bang this past Sunday at Grand Bend Motorplex. Those who came out to watch the spectacular show saw the quickest and fastest street legal passes ever made on Canadian turf.

Ronnie Mitchell came over from Michigan and laid the smack down with an opening qualifying pass of 7.82/189, the first ever seven-second pass recorded on Canadian soil. His winning final round numbers of 7.794 and 189.27 MPH earned him the victory and $1000 winner's prize, as well as the street legal records this side of the border.

Canada's own Richard Peppler (RCC Turbos) came close to the seven-second zone, setting a new career best elapsed time at 8.07 secs. and upping his own record for the fastest run by a Canadian - 185.98 MPH - en route to a runner-up finish.
