Now that I am back home in CO, I've been wanting to race my Tecate up Pikes Peak. Down side is, that it costs $8,000 to race a quad or motorcycle. Then you also have to pay for the Tech inspection. The requirements for your machine to pass Tech inspection are pretty strict also. Alot of "safety wired" fasteners! Another thing is that the 19mile Hwy to the top is paved ALL the way! Not sure that a stock Tecate will pull enough power to move street tires up 14,110ft in elevation. I'd sure like to try!!!
So . . . my question is . . . Does any body have any insider info on this race, or something simular? Any info would be helpfull. I'm not a racer of any kind. I just like to ride really fast! So my knowledge of the race scene is minimal at best. Thanks!!!
