    First flattrack update:

    Hey Guys, I got the tri Z done and ready for the first round of our indoor series here near Boise ID.
    In practice the Z was running well and handled even better, then about 5 laps in the thing started to cut out then come back, it was real odd....
    It was dark and raining so i didnt do any work to it, plus i was racing the pit bike class so i was dealing with that also.
    The heat came and i got the hole shot, was leading then about 5 laps in same thing, I nursed it around the last lap and still came in seconed... Starting to think its the fuel pump?....
    The Main: I lined up on the front row. O by the way we had 9 trikes! I thought i had the lead then my buddy on a 81 250r came underneath me, we had a good moto going then in the third lap i got him, I was waiting for the thing to cut out and fail me,,,,,,,...... nothing, ran perfect? I won. The 16" american racers are awsome by the way,... Now i dont know what to think about the problem, The tank was completly full when i arrived, I have looked over the wiring for a short a little bit. Can you guys tell me what its like when the fuel pump fails.
    I will have some pics soon, the lady there got some good ones.

    fuel pump will bogg in and out ..if it's cutting out check the wires for a short,loose,ground,,

    check the orange wire that comes out of the coil.. they crack and get real brittle there

    I was there for the heat race. It was great. I had to go before the main because the grandkids were getting tired. The races didn't end until midnight. Check out idahoATV.net for pictures.
