They're alright, the ones I saw a Raptor hit a 50 gallon barrel full of water and made a big splash. I have been told that the races are set-up, and they sure as hell look like it.

Quad Wars give people the wrong impression of ATV's. I saw the show about 3 years ago and I'm sure it's the same now. They had a bunch of Yahoo's riding on a small track bumping into each other at low speeds. Then at the end two idiots jumped of the bikes and had a WWF fight. 6 year olds may love this stuff but I'll never go back.

That pretty much desribes it, exept the more local ones don't have fights. I thought it was kinda funny how it was always the same 2 people winning the race, and if someone was in front of them, they would "make a mistake" so the "leader" of team Oregon could win.

I went to the monster jam on saturday night here in kansas city. They had the quad wars, monster trucks, and freestyle motocross. The quadwars is just flat track racing. It really sucks. There are no jumps or anything exciting. The freestyle motorcross is cool. The guys did huge stunts and a step up competition.

I wanted to be in them to, I probably could have kept up with them on my ATC except for one double would have been hard. The thing you have to realize is, they get paid alot of money to be complete morons out on the track.

Well, Im competing in the one here. I can tell you one thing, they better pay more more than the $25 entry fee, because if they don't, I'm gonna stomp a hole in those other guys! If I have my R fixed, I'll run the TT setup, and hope there aren't any jumps!

Are you doing the local one or the "Monster Jam" series? It seems that the local ones have about 2 jumps, and they're real small. The biggest one that they have had here was about 5 feet high and about 10-15 foot gap. As for the money issue, I mean the guys that were on T.V. all the time that get paid alot.

Hmm, I wouldn't let them give quads a bad name. Unless they gave me enough money to buy a new wheel, some 18" Tamers, and an axle and a-arms, I'm gonna ride it as if it were any other race.
