chass is right we are all in to it for different reasons i very well enjoy racing mx but am way outt of shape to do it. but my love is drag racing. dont be simple minded guys, think about things before you say them. dusty.

 

hey big 14 ill be going to tulare,ca and porterville,ca in feb or march. im originaly from tulare if you think your ready ill call your bluff. hanford is close enough to were ill be. let me know if your ready

 

I stick to what i said ,ANYBODY can jump on a quad and run a strait line!! I would only be proud of a accoplishment if it ment something. I have three snowmobiles and cant ride for sh&^. But i can drag race them, but i wouldnt be bragging about it! IT has taken me 7 years to get to the level of mx riding on a quad to get to the level i am at now, BUt I could drag race the first day i brought one home.

 

seven think about what your saying ah nevermind simple mind[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

hey be easy on the dragers you got to admit its fun to line up with your buddies and drag yes it might not take the talent of mx but there is some talent to it instead of bashing eachothers fav way to ride we should be working together to be able to keep riding...jmo

Seven,

Yes, I see your point, You haven't got a clue . . . or perhaps you have never run a falling tree or a pro tree. Bracket racing is nothing to scoff at. I'll admit, you have to be in better shape to ride MX but there is little more tallent to riding a low horsepower quad around a track than riding a high horsepower quad against the lights, times, and other experienced riders. Its a whole different ball game.

I'd bet money that I could take you from one end of any long set of dunes to the other in my worst shape off the couch. Make it the hardest course up and down, around whichever way you want and then, when we're done, I'll still beat you in a drag race. Track racing is a blast. Never done it on a quad but I've been racing dirt bikes for years and I love both drag and track racing. I couldn't choose. When you get to be your own pit crew the amount of talent it takes to win a drag increases dramaticaly, same as MX.

Love them both. I would never talk bad about the other. It wouldn't do either one justice. Just like you have failed to do.

I agree with the poet (chass). Put a drag racer and a mx'er on two identically set up drag bikes and a drag racer will wax a MX'er. Just because its what that person favors on riding. Im sure your a hell of a track rider, but dont bash what other people like to do. Like somebody else said, it makes you look stupid. We drag race, and its not ALL about racing. Its about having a good time. I know u serious motocrosser (cave man voice) but we all like to have a good time and kick back at the hill and enjoy ourselves.

Big14: i have a honda that runs 4.5's. Give me a wheelie bar and more tire and ill run a 4.4. Bring your little banshee
