    I didn't see him take that one out but I got there a little late. He raced his Red Baron and his STP machine. Somehow I forgot to get pictures of it. It is in some of the videos though.

    Man, and this is in Ohio? I need to make a road trip out once the suspension 70 is running. You think they would let an out of stater come up and play?

    Ohio! That is where it all happens. I'm sure they would let you come and play. If you bring a 70 you'd be in. I took mine around the track with the stock tires on it but the slicks are where it's at for this track.

    This video just finished uploading. The last for tonight. This one ends in a crash. No 70's were harmed in the making of this video. Good stuff!

    There are a bunch of views on this thread but very few reply's. What do you folks think. Is it leaving you speechless or are you bored with it. I think it's awesome personally. This is something that could be done in a pretty small area by anyone. Any way here are a few more vids from last night. I still have some on the camera so be prepared for more.

    That pink bike has so much power it's crazy. Rex seems to handle it pretty good too. That is one quick 70.

    You're right, it looked like it happened in slow motion. I turned off the camera right away and headed over to make sure everyone was okay. I'll bet you're sore today. Hell I'm sore and I didn't even crash.

    my arm and knee are the worst, but not to bad. to vealmonkey do you have a susp. atc 70 ? If so send some pic . I have one that I made from some old pic that i seen on ebay. I will take it out to race but I bent the valve in the motor. I need ti fix it yet. The rollcenter is to high anyways, but it is alot softer to ride. makes a great pit bike

    Here are a couple pics of my A+ and PK Racing suspension 70s. Right now the A+ is being converted over to rear discs and having some other work done to it, but I'm now waiting for a new engine and will still have to do some fab work, or should I say I hope Blue27 will do some fab work for me. My PK racing trike is sitting in my living room with an xl70 engine in it, but I guess I'm going to have to put the lifan 125 in that so I can bring it out too. I was thinking about using a go kart rear axle in the A+ frame for more strength and a little more width and to maybe run some rear stagger. The red suspension 70 was a 3rd one I had that I sold to a member on here, blue27, who has since turned it into the "Mini Tiger". He also is the person that has been instrumental in rebuilding my Tiger 250 and modding my A+ suspension 70 for disc brakes and fixing a couple bad spots on the frame. I can't thank him enough. There are a couple pictures of my A+ frame with the disc brake work done to it, but they were from blue27 and they are in the background of my Tiger thread pictures. Maybe he'll see this and post a couple pics of my A+ and where it stands right now. I can't thank you enough Bruce.

    Awesome thread Daddio!! Thanks for sharing and motivating me a bit more!!

    I'm so glad to have a few of these that I can work on.....

    I always figured that when I got too old I'd have to resort to a 4x4 quad but this just makes me want to build a flat oval track in the middle of my MX track and rip some 70's up on it

    VealMonkey and others - Any suggestions on what motor to build and install?? Seems like there are allot of choices but I want what would end up being a well balanced and give/take powerplant. Not just the most "displacement" money can buy.

    I've got 3 ATC 70 motors but they are ALL tired, so do I go Lifan? or XL70? At some point I'll build my own suspension for the rear to start but really up in air in terms of what motor to focus on.

    Any thoughts are very much appreciated !!
