You were bored?? No way! I never would've guessed!:devil

It's a friend of mine's. Just a tip of advice.. Don't ever try to jump a TT quad. It's not cool. Those shocks bottom VERY quickly :)

Chef

12-21-2002, 05:56 PM

14 inch shocks dont take to the air too kindly...lol

Yea, that track in the big indoor arena had a short, steep jump that was putting us 5+ feet back to flat clay...my whole frame was digging holes every lap. There was 3 inches of clay on my Pro Peg mounts after practice :eek: I thought my swingarm was gonna break, really made me mad...lol

I hate seeing frame marks on the ground. I "revamped" a double at my house.. Went from around 20ft to 60ft.... I cased it so hard one time, some powdercoat rubbed off and you could see the red frame imprint in the landing.

By the time everything quit rolling, and I quit spacing out, I realized my R had gone from 4th pinned to stopped in less than 4ft. That hurt! I also ran MxDale71's Cannibal into my barn off that jump:huh

Bean

12-23-2002, 11:49 AM

piece of advice for beggining TT racers, Never run up someones tires, u will flip over, lol

it feels awsome, flying around turns and straights at arougn 50 - 60mph, inches away from opponents, racing towards the next flag

yeah that track was really loose. I didnt get the holeshot but on the 2nd lap I passed the first 400 and I ride away for the next 8 laps. I will maybe buy some rims and tires for TT for the next season. theres not so many TT events here .

just buy some rims tires and ratchet straps if its not a real serious race.

Yea, lower, stiffer, better handling, adjustability.
