Hi,
I'm sure there's tons of info on this site,
see if the search key works for you.

If not, I can try.

What are your specific needs?
Are there race rule specs in particular?

Well atc racing was a little before my time,although Im up on quad racing Im pretty green in the atc racing stuff.I grew up
riding atc's,but racing was done by then. I had an 84 250r back in the day I purchased from a local racer,but eventually
traded for a car(i was 18,ugh!)..Had I known then what I know now!!.. Anyways,no paticular rules class,as It will be mainly used on a friends track just mainly want a period correct privateer racer,what i need help with is what parts(companies)did
They use..Heres a bad pic of my old 84,ohtsus,fiberglass rears,handmade pipe,etc..

Such a shame how people beat the hell out of three wheelers. But considering the age its hard to find a 4 wheeler a couple years old in better shape. Its tuff to look past the bad on old trikes but its sure satisfying when there all fixed up.

Since the pics but it was a mx quad that was due for a rebuild

Where are you in IL?
I'm about a 2 hours from Rockford. Might be able to help ya out with something. The "flat track" builds seem to be getting pretty popular. You've got a nice platform to build on there. Might like this build.....
