Hello all,

I'm entering my first race this weekend and I have to get a tether kill switch and numbers/number plates. Wondering if any of you have advice where to get this stuff. Rockymountainatv.com has a tether kill switch for about $30. It's a Pro Design model. Is this a decent kill switch? Also, what's involved in installing this? I assume it is spliced into the existing wiring? or is is something else.

Also as I mentioned, I need to get a set of numbers. I have to get a number plate for the front bumper, the rear of the quad and the rear fenders. Is there a good place online that I could get this stuff in this week? I don't want to steal Leo's design :) and make my own.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The Pro Design tether is probably the best one sold. Well worth the $30.

I just ordered some numbers and plates online from Dennis Kirk (www.denniskirk.com).

Good luck.

250xman - i'm either going to race at mosier valley in arlington or at the tqra race at four states mx track near texarkana. i'm sure i'll be real nervous, but i've got to start sometime. i just want to be safe and have fun. i'll worry about finishing good later.

fred - thanks for the info. i checked out denniskirk and they do have a very good selection.

Marcums had a blue and purple Pro Design kill switch in stock. If not he can order your color. i think he will ship them for about $30

Nacs will prolly have but for about twice the price!! I bought $8.99 airbox plug and by the time it was shipped they charged my card over $17. i will never buy from Nacs again,,,way to expensive!!!

I'm sure it cost around 8 bucks to ship from NY to texas. I always order from Nacs or I just drive up there.

Tommy!!! I cant beleive you reccomended Nac's Racing!:huh Finally I knocked some sense into you! Nac's racing will have the kill switch and the number back rounds and numbers. I personally reccomend Nac's for there great customer service and they may charge alittle more but they support our sport!!! The pro design tether is 35$ from Nac's only 5 bucks more and that is worth the better service!

250xman - the race in arlington is at mosier valley. i think the 4th saturday of every month (which should be this coming weekend) they include quad racing. they have motorcycle racing about every saturday, but quads only once per month :( ...but at least they do race quads sometime.

get that quad fixed soon :)

Nacs is $35+ shipping, Plan to spend about $45 for it. you can order it from Marcums(which is definately the best service) and have it in your door for $30,,i think he sent mine for $25 but im not sure!!

yeah, better get that arm better. racing will put a lot of stress on everything, and your arms would be at the top of the list. hope you get better soon.
