All you REALLY need is nerf bars and a tether that works.

Alot of practice. Some people build their quads to the max, then have no idea on how to ride.

Get out and ride. Get conditioned so you can hold a good pace for as many laps as needed. Your quad sounds like it's set up quite well for a beginner, start working on you.

one other thing to remeber...its not all about motor...some people ride just as fast with a stock motor, and good suspeion then people with no suspeion and a fast motor...it takes the two together to get good/fast....good luck, racings a blast!

only thing i would change on your bike is that you need rear beadlocks...8" rear beadlocks with 18" mx tires... and the reinforced front rims will work fine... just put a set of 20" mx front tires on them...


and then practice...practice....practice...practice....
