I just went to the Walden track in NY Wednesday with my stock Outlaw. This was my first time ever being on a race track, so give me a little break. After a few practice laps, I got the feel for the track and started to loosen up. The website is www.mxwalden.com, and it was awesome. I hit all the big jumps, the suspension was pretty damn good for stock on the jumps. soaked up all the hard and crooked landings really nice. In the corners, the IRS definitely gives it a bit of body roll, but not uncontrollable. I was riding with a set of Holeshot XC's on the back that were worn down to the wear mark. I figured it would help me slide around the turns easier. It definitely did help and it still gripped the track really well when I wanted it to. Riding with IRS and dealing with all the extra weight on the track just means you have to use more body language in order to throw the heavy machine around. One of my first few attempts on the biggest jump I overshot it. I got way too much air and distance. I landed on the flat ground really damn hard. I stopped to check for damage and suprisingly found none. I have a slideshow and a short video of my first day out on the track. It was my first day ever going on a track and I'm pretty small to be riding a machine that heavy, so gimme a break. The video was recorded in the last tiring half hour and my mom isn't great with a camera, but its alright.
