Richard Peppler (Listowel, ON) piloted his RCC Turbos Suzuki Hayabusa streetbike to an 8.221/184.08 during last weekend's Harleys By The Beach event at Grand Bend Motorplex. After qualifying yielded a pair of 8.6's at over 175 MPH, Peppler finally got the power to the ground in eliminations.

This was the first time on a prepped track for Peppler this year, so watch for his times to improve before he returns to Grand Bend for the Hindle Canadian Fastest Streetbike Shootout on Aug. 28.
