Cornering

[Pappy]

Today we took the boy out for a few lessons. Cornering and Starts. The stock tires dont aid much in powersliding:p

[Pappy]

I let him do 8 or 10 laps on his own and then told him to plant his rear on that seat and use his weight! Much better I think:p

[Pappy]

I think he has a better grasp on what he needs to do now:D

[Pappy]

Next came starts. I let him do a few on his own. I noticed his head way down and the quad would bog when the throttle was punched

[Pappy]

Keeping his head up now, but it was still not pulling like i wanted it too

[Pappy]

After a quick explaination, I showed him how to make this auto clutch leave just a tad harder;) Ofcourse he put his head back down:p

[Pappy]

Well, I think we have all had a start like this:devil: He feathered the throttle and rode it out! looks like he has the hang of it now!

[theTman]

looks like hes doin pretty good there pappy... teachin him well:)

so is the Eton collecting dust ??? haha

[Pappy]

we sold the eton to 300exOH from the site. i couldnt keep the chain tight but the day before i sold it to him i figured it out:grr: oh well, his kid will be smiles and giggles so its all good!

Wish I would have started on little quads when I was younger. Just took me awhile to talk my dad into letting me get a quad. I like that 90 its pimp! :D Them elkas are sweet too!:eek:

you smack a tree at every race:blah: i remeber coming across you at halleck, on your side:p oh well i only made it a mile or so past you and i joined the club:D

i just looked at the weather and it appears like we will FINALLY get some rain. not sure if i feel like dealing with holiday traffic and rain:macho i may sit this one out and ride locally to prepare myself for whatever i decided to do about the Penton:p

[WOODSRACER349]

Yeah remember PICTURES....BUNCHES :D haha

[Pappy]

i geuss i should be happy....when i pull into a race people always ask..."are you racing or taking pictures":p i geuss its either they like my pictures that much, or they think im too big of a road block on the track:devil: :macho

[300exOH]

Looks like Codeman is really gettin the power down.:macho

I gave my boy the quad Saturday. You should've seen the smile.:devil: He rode for about 2-3 hours and took to it really quick. He was power sliding in the yard after about 10 minutes.

He said he thought it was cool that it had been raced by Cody. I'll get some pics up in a day or 2.

[Pappy]

awesome! if your yard is like mine, you wont need a lawnmower:p

[300exOH]

lmao!

[300exOH]

Between the burnouts and the power slides I shouldn't have to mow til fall:eek2: He scared me when he 2 wheeled a couple times but he steered into it and hung on to it. I think the stock front shocks were adding to it. He doesn't know about the works yet.:cool:

[Pappy]

lmfao...the shocks could make for a killer x-mas present:devil: damn dude...you think like me:bandit:

[lol]

its great to have a lil quad when youre younger! i rode a trx70 which i loved to death.....nice pics pappy!
