hum looks fun

[motoman1012002]

BKM you know what would be cool on the circle track like some fast eddie stuff the missle kits

[nicker71]

I'm in for a race or two

[robertc]

Looks like those four wheeled things are dangerous!

[bkm]

The first race is a little over two weeks away, who's in?

I'll check with Billy and get a price schedule for the classes. I'm assuming there will be one trike class unlike the vintage and open classes at SRP?????

I'm working on mine as we speak. I'm performing some intake upgrades along with smaller tire selection. You coming to any of these?

[motoman1012002]

[bkm]

10 days away. I talked to Billy and he's wanting to get a head count. My vacation day has been approved and barring uprise from a certain segment of the population, I'm in.

[R.J.M.]

Wish these races were a little closer, would love to go watch some and learn the setups

[bkm]

December 13th is right around the corner. I won't be able to make this race, but it would be great if a couple of guys could participate.

Very nice. What part of STL are you from? If you do plan on racing let me know and I'll inform the promoter that you will be coming. If you end up being the only one racing, he will put you in a race with other quads, but it will just be that much more fun whooping up on them. Hopefully a few more guys show up this time.

[*ATC*]

bkm, actually in pevely, but nobody knows where that is so stl works good.
I have to figure out a couple things with the new carb first Hopefully everything goes smooth.

[bkm]

I'm a stone's throw from you.

[bkm]

Supposedly one bike showed up, was it anyone from here?

[maxbraydanracin]

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.

[motoman1012002]

I was goin but jackie meadows little boy race for his first time in memphis and was down there with jackie watching his boy, But it looks like one race in january we might be up there

Did you run short track or tt?

[maxbraydanracin]

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?

[maxbraydanracin]

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.

I hope I can make it to one of the races. Got to get back to work first. But getting ready just in case. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/12/16/e3ed9b55ff74f93669b88dd05d14fbd2.jpg

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?

[The_Steve_Man]

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

[maxbraydanracin]

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.....

sweet lookin bike STEVE MAN. I'll be looking up the build thread for it. interested to see what linkage you used to drop the rear that far with the trx swinger

[The_Steve_Man]

I don't have a build thread yet. Once my kart parts get here I will post up some pics.

[nicker71]

That looks quite a bit different than the Sikeston track.I see why the slick tires are needed, track looks very hard packed
