Hi I have a trx450r with the HRC kit, I was wondering is there a stock class so I could just change the tires over and give it a try, the track I would be running is a 1/5 mile, could I be competitive amongst modded machines anyway? I want to be able to leave the suspension stock, but If I were to put zero preload on all the springs and stiffen the front compression up, would that be acceptable,, I just want to go race for fun, but is it worth it with a stock machine?

Yep, many run stock quads just for fun. Like you said, back the pre-load off the shocks. Low and wide is the key. You'll have fun, but may not be that competitive against quads set up for flat track. Don't forget a killswitch. Let us know how you do.;)
