Sparks 465 was on top in the 4-stroke wars. Curtis Sparks is amazing.

After months of racing there is NO DOUBT the TC 505 cant be beat. You can ask anybody who has been to the races with me and they will tell you the same. I raced at the Memorial Day Sand Drags this weekend and won both the 600cc and 400cc classes. This was with Pro Wedges(dont work well at all for sand drags by the way) and suspension problems!! I beat a Trinity 465 with those tires and even after missing 4th gear on the strip. Took home $500 so it was a good weekend.

Hey ChadEXer,
I was the guy at the sand drags this weekend that was talking to you, the one that bought the paddle tires from Kevin! Man that was an awesome race! I cant believe that many people were there!! That 505 is one bad mofo!!! The Raptors, Predators, V-Force 700, Z-440's Trinity 465's, Thumper 440's werent even coming close. Hehe, I shouldnt even have wasted my money racing but hey it was all in fun! I still think they should have put the full $1000 in the pot like they said they would. Think how much you would have won then!!

My plans for the winter are going to be to put a lighter frame on it and narrow it up. It is quite wide for a drag bike but it hasnt caused me any problems so far.
02EXrider, man if you would have bought those paddles Kevin was going to let me borrow them for the race! Oh well it turned out anyway! Are you gonna go to the next big drags?? I should have my paddles and my suspension finished up by then.
