    Thats why I Ride Red!!

    I got a bone stock 06 trx450 a few months ago with fairly low hours on it. When I say bone stock I mean BONE stock. So I threw some renthal bars on it...shaved the plastic and headed to the mx track for the first time in 4 yrs. Our local track has one class for quads....atv open class. So I'm lined up on the gate for the first moto on my stock trx with half bald stock rear tires(I guess the previous owner liked pavement burnouts...moron) with three built yfz450's and one piped ltr450. Gate drops and I pull the holeshot by a bike length! Same thing second moto!! These other riders are no slouches either. One of the riders on a yfz races the expert class in the TQRA series. Now I ended up getting 3rd in both motos but its not my quads fault...I gotta get my butt in shape!! Just thought I'd share my story and let everyone know...That's why I Ride Red!!!
    Feel free to share your stories...I'd love to hear them!

    only way to ride is red.............

    but that said you must be one hell of a drag racer or the others are not as good as you think

    in stock form even our mighty 450r's are a little sluggish
    (no match for a built yfz w/ expert rider)

    congrads to you (maybe your quad has hrc kit ?)
