    Gotta give that guy a lot of credit for getting out there and doing it. With the right mods and proper setup, I bet that thumper could compete.

    He was the one lapping me in the main Really though he does very good, you'll notice that both times he grabs the holeshot. He almost always does too

    From watching the vids of all the races that's been posted, I'd say Walter and his X are very competitive. The torque on those smaller tracks seem to be a big plus, and from what I've seen(on the screen from my chair) his riding ability isn't holding him back any either.

    I've seen his pic with the checkered flag on the SFTL website before.

    Yup, thats who we race with. I met Skully back in September at my first race, he had the PSI425 TRX there and man that thing was awesome. I haven't seen him around much lately though.

    Itdoes look like a lotof fun. It lookls like it would drain a lot energy from you hanging on to those bikes at that speed in the corners. Your camera man should bring a tripod for his beer next time. Good going guys!!!

    So, what size was the track? We ran 3 tracks last weekend 1/4, 1/3 and a 1/2 mile. On the 1/3 mile we were averaging 70/80 mph on the straights turning 17 sec lap times.

    This is supposedly a 1/3 mile track but I don't know how it can be that small. If I recall the open quads were turning 15 something laps and Alan in the main was turning 16 and some change.
