This should be fun... I fully expect to get beaten, but it'll be fun anyway...

Farley Iowa indoor 1/10th mile clay oval on Feb. 12th

suspension will be strapped to full compression, & I'll be running a set of Duro HF-224's ... 22" X 8.5" X 12" fronts, & 22" X 10.5" X 12" rears...

we'll have to see how ol' T-Rex likes the roundy rounds...

 

That should be fun! Do the utility quads have there own class? If so you should have the advantage with SRA. I know some guys use wider tires on the outside for more stability. I bet you do better than you think. If not who cares, you will still have fun doing it!

 

no utility classes... I'll be racing the 450's... I may be able to limnk some pics later or post them on my bio page, as there will be several people taking pics...

 

Mike,

The fun is in the trying. Give it h-ll and have fun!

 

newbeatle - if you haven't tried this before, try to get some track time in first. We had an event that took place at a stock car track; in between the drag races and slaloms we decided to try the oval track. Scary!! I hit the first corner at 50mph and then realized that the machine didn't want to turn!! I hit the brakes in a panic and barely got slowed down enough to make the corner. Scared the crap out of me!! I didn't know what happened!! I then tried it more slowly to start; I found you had to really lean (as in your butt nearly off the seat) before I got into the corner, and try to get the back end to break loose.
I thought it might be just me; but then a guy on a Honda did exactly the same thing. He came into the pits as white as a ghost!! I asked him if he thought he would hit the wall - he asked me how I knew he was in trouble and I told him that it happened to me. One guy did bump into the wall - the exact same thing happened to him also.
Once we got the hang of it you could go as fast as you wanted, it was alot of fun.
