well this weekend went pretty good. i was racing on a track i had never been on before. only had 6 laps of practice.

First moto, i have LAST gate pick... Even though i was last, i still got a decent pick. We lined up, the gates dropped. everyone almost killed it. It was me and about 7 other 450's. from mild to wild... So i was fighting a LTR for the holeshot. He ended up getting it, i ended up 3rd out of the first corner. Were jumpin big 70 footers side by side. and we come to the whoops. I slide off the corner after the whoops. DEAD last. So i fight back a couple of spots.

2nd moto, We line up, im pumped. got a good starting gate. So the gates drop. I start out in 5th. 2nd or 3rd corner, right before hte HUGE table top, a guy gets throwin off the track and hits a plastic 55 gallon barrel filled with water. Flips it crazily and lands on the MIDDLE of hte track. RIGHT in front of me... So i dove off the side of the track so i dont hit him and skip the table top, i end up getting back on the track in 4th place. race was going good, i was hitting all the jumps. And a couple guys in front of me got tangled up, i slowed down and passed them, then tore off excited to be in 2nd place. Last lap i could barely hang on. Someone tried to pass me on the last huge finish line jump but couldnt pull me. 2nd place not so bad! ended up 4th place over all.

I was pretty excited to be pushin around 450's with my lil outdated 250!

sorry guys if you dont find this thread useful, i just wanted to brag about killing some 450's :D

I think it is awesome, good job! Remember, the 4 strokes are racing with a "handicap" just so they have a chance. It's a good thing they have an engine almost twice your size or otherwise they wouldn't be able to keep up. Think about how different the race would be if you were racing on a 450cc two stroke engine.

I see you run 13-39 gearing. Try using a 14-37 when you go to 18 wheels. The 13-39 will seam like you are revving out quicker and shifting more.

Hey man whats your name? lol. Yea i raced C. Yea its inman. The track is fun as hell now. It sprinkled off and on and that kept track conditions perfect until it poured at the end. you should come on down sometime! Who do you go with to the races?
