My sons and I went and checked out the new race track that opened near us. It's a fairly open track wide turns and a few big jumps. My question is, how much can the cases of a LT80 take? I am willing to let my oldest son race at this new track, but the thing that scares me the most is theres a double that I know and he knows he could carry enough speed to clear. And I geuss I'm afraid he would try it, and I geuss I'm afraid he'll make it, and then what? Try the big tabletop? Maybe then the big jump where you have to flatland? GOOD lord help me, I've created a monster!! I just don't want the quad to break out from under him. So should I look into beefing the cases before we even start this racing thing? Thanks!!!

 

LOL!
Cases are not guaranteed to break or not break. This is where the rider comes in. Some are smooth and some are not. I have a pic of this lil gal jumping big, and she's never broke the cases.
I understand your concern. And yes supporting the cases will help. My oldest son broke his in 1/2 (this happens when you don't notice a crack) we welded it back together and it's never broke again.
I'll look for my pic of the supports. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
