We just had our flattrack race.We had a horrible turn out due to a few minis waiting on parts :( and the website had a mix up on dates......:rolleyes: But we made the best of it and had a good time.....
I was most impressed by my Sons modified 50..He actually beat his Big Sis on her modded 90:eek: :huh in trhe heat race,but she got him pretty good in the main......


The track was rougher than snot:grr: and dry at times,very dusty in the heat race .. I got two VERY short clips of the Pro and Minis when it was dark if anyone would like to see.:)

I placed 2nd in the heat race and 2nd in the main.. I WAS in 1st for several laps in the main but I pooped out the last few laps and after seeing myself on tape, I could see I was slowing down alot sooner before the corner.....:o We had 12 laps in the main.....
Troy took 3rd place on my Honda,had he been on pole, I think he would have won.....He was TEARIN !!!!! Time to make a gearing change o nthe rear spocket,it just needs a little more top end for this track than it has right now....... I think the main I TORE!!! Its was my best start yet!!!!!:blah: Bluez440 was faster than all hel!! :macho Ill have some pics in the morning of the race.....:)

I saw the vid he made last night comparing it and I cant believe what a difference I make on cornering now.....:eek2: ITs going to take a fwe races for me to get use to the technique, so I may not place as well but it will be better when I get it down......;) As long as you and I take top two from now on.......

If you want more top speed, go 2 or 3 teeth smaller on the rear sprocket. The down-side to this is that you will loose acceleration quickness. I think what you need is a rev box..higher rpm's..you have that big bore kit with the stock rpms and that's what holding you back. anyways try to get some girls out there,it should be fun. hey do you by any chance have curtis number?? e-mail me. oh yeah,If you want more low-end power and quicker acceleration, then keep the rear sprocket stock, and go down one tooth on the front sprocket.

I already have the front sprocket down one..;) I may try stock again and see how it does.......and if stock works then Ill leave it..... WE know all that gearing stuff, I just have to try a few dfiferent ones and see what works best.:). I think we have Curtis's phone number, Call Troy later tongiht and get if from him....

MY guess was thats probably what I would want..But he did say the other was hard to idle and our winters get pretty cold here :( I will have two to try out and see which I like best,should be here in a few days.. He is sending me both since the CDI's he has is usually used for different racing so I may prefer one better for flattrack........How is your for MX Rico??? It will be used for that as well.:)

I cant think of one rider we have out there right now thats sand baggin......:huh



If anything........... MAYBE we have a few B class that should actually be C class..This would leave more room for a B class rider to improve when they are not ready for PRO....The problem is we just dont have enough riders in the area to slpit up the classes to make them appropriate classes:(

So what type of cdi did u get?? Troy on your quad at mt.home:D
Is he racing Pro? I know that Lance is out of town but his trying to make it. I don't know about the other pro riders. I know Curtis is going and me..hey you should give that kid with the predator a call.He said he wants to do MX.

IVe been overwhelmed with work and running with my head cutt off all day that I may space it.......:confused: I think Craig may come if hes into town in time, he said he might misss practice but should make the race in Mnt. Home ..... We wont be coming to the OMC race on Sun. that track is not all that great with my shocks and I woikr that day too....:( Im sure Troy will run Pro on mine since thats what he is signed up for even though he may not place well with those big dogs on the track on my quad,but he wants to get out there so he wont be too russty for WORCS race next month......But if no other quads show for Pro, then it will prol. be open class......

Brain~~~you should race Sat. night that track seems to hold alot better than OMC track and looks like a somewhat good turn out if the Middleton crew shows as well!!!

I will remind you on friday..Man if you think OMC track is bad on your shocks wait until mt.home...everyone bottoms out..even the big dogs..Mt home is a sweet track but it's brutal on the quad. Hey Brian Curtis said if is a money thing, that he will spot u, that way we can have more racer's out there. He called me yesterday.

My opinion is if you practice on a rough track your endurance will be that much better on race day when its smooth. Back when I was racing all the time I would hit the track up 2 times a week just to build endurance. One of theses days I would like to hit the track up again on race day! I havent raced since 2001. I am starting to get the bug again. Last time I was wanting to race I broke both wrists though!

To REALLY build up your endurance you need to take out your shocks completly and run steel tube in its place. You ride like that for a week then put your shocks back on and it will feel like a dream

You are right about the endurance..but when do Quads have a smooth track..We always go last on race day

So we all could shovel mud for the bikes.........:rolleyes: ITs a hit and miss on when they let the quads run first I guess at all the tracks....
