Default Oval dirt track racing... need tips

A popular North Carolina oval dirt track is thinking about adding an ATV class to its line up of Saturday night racing.. I was wondering if anybody on here does this type of racing and what kind of setup I should have on my DS650 to run circle track....
Any advice on suspension and gearing especialy would be appreciated....

I think it's safe to say you'll definitely want an anti sway bar. A lowering kit will help with center of gravity. 18" tires will also help with center of gravity. MAJOR motor mods to be competetive. Not sure about gearing, of course the 18's will lowwer your gearing.....depends on the length of the straights at this track. Stock width should be ok, I think some major TT events limit you to 50" width, but if not, maybe look into +2 a-arms for additional stability. Nerf bars to be safe. That's all that's coming to mind right now, hope this helps!
