    It was me... I ran with the 450am class. I had way to much grip and couldn't slide 3 wheeler at all. Fun experience. Got some good helmet cam videos I will share when I get a chance.

    I just ran short track. I would've ran both but with the tire hookup I had I couldn't do anything anyways so I just stuck with the short track. How did your bike do with your setup.

    Handled awesome. Holeshot was a little tricky, but overall I'm pleased with the handling. If you didn't want to go with kart tires, a set of 16x7.5-8 mower tires would work very nice. Crank the right side up to 25-30 lbs and drop the left side to about 4-5 lbs. She'll slide then.

    Other than the sticky tires, how did you like it?

    The overall experience of indoor racing was a blast. The building set up and heat was nice you didn't need a jacket inside. Only downfall really was having to leave your vehicle outside and bring your bike in unless you rent a stall. As rough as the track was after the 4 heat laps I was wore out. But I enjoyed it. I like the Sikeston track better.

    I agree with the pit stalls. A tight handling bike will wear you out in no time. Loosen that thing up and I think you'll enjoy it much more.

    I'm planning on making the rest of them job and family permitting.

    You got a good looking rear end there Steve. lol Great work man.

    Are those your Coke Syrup tires, or a set of dirt track slicks?

    Just used kart parts to get measurements. I'm not going to use that stuff. Longer axle and treaded tires are in the future

    Here is my practice video from my helmet cam. Not the best view cause I was having to lean down very far to keep trike on the ground but good graphics and a ride around the track for people wanting to see the set up of the track. At the very beginning of the video when I get on the track I try to spin tires and find out that I have way to much hook up. You can also notice in the curves the trike trying to tip over. But after two hours of uploading here it is.....
