The local track is letting minis out on the cart track...

Anyone have any experience setting up a mini for this type of thing?

I was going to use a DRX70 for this...

Any recomendations for tires or ways to tune for better performance in this type of riding?


Is there a name for this type of thing? I know the dirtbikes call it motard?

i think the name for this gary is dangerous but still sounds fun, what ever you guys do stay safe. i believe there are some golf cart tires that would work they are like street radials.

I have seen some guys run lawn mower tires.

Then lower it way down low and wide, change your spindles, add a torsion bar.
Oh yeah, there is a whole world of mods you can do for flat track as well.

Lower the suspension as low as you can and have a good time.

Bulldog,
Pavement racing! Your crazy man. Get it low and wide.

Have fun man but be SAFE! Let me know how it goes.

We use to run flat track but on clay. Its was scary at times when the kids get close to each other the inexperiance and speeds involved makes it a new danger. Just be safe
