PW is spending all of his time getting the Prairie ready and I'm spending all of my free time working on the track but last night I got to drive my wives wheeler around the dump. Seems someone set some tires on fire and the Salvation Army called me and asked me if I would bring my four wheeler out to take bottle water around to the firemen. Man, buring tires stink!!!!

Things are progressing as best as can be expected here... Funny thing, my machinist blew a gasket, when he saw those pistons JE ( I think ??? )... he thought they were jewels... apperently the producer of the pistons for FST big bore kits is "THE" premier piston manufacturer, for Winston Cup stock cars etc... he just kept saying over & over...I can't believe it... & even went in to show the counter guys ...LOL...I hope P. W.'s quad is up & running tonight...WAM

Newbeatle,
Here is how the rule reads for number plates:
ATVs must have at least three number- plates on the machine. A front bumper plastic number plate and rear bumper plastic number plate are mandatory. Teams will be issued colored number plate backgrounds based on their respected class.
Since you are running in the Utility class your number plate <u>must</u> have a yellow background. We will provide you with yellow glow sticks for the night portion. We are using color coding so you know what level rider you are coming up on or what level rider is behind you. When you filled out your registration one of the questions was what number you would like to run. Unless there is a duplicate you can run that number; however, if there is two or more teams who want to run the same number then we will assign one. Hope this info is helpful.

P.W. / O.M.W. ... well, I just got our bio's sent in... now you'll all know how to avoid me at the race ...LOL...
I'm still pretty happy with my Pendland series big gun... but understand that you had some problems with your's... I'm still pulling out my hair, hoping the machinists can get everything done in time...( he's still amazed at the brand of pistons... they must be good... he litterally acted like they were gold )...
I'm suprised that you guy's aren't using those wheels I mentioned in an earlier post... they are custom made, ultra strong & light, repairable ( the outside half can be removed & replaced, if damaged ), & as they are custom, I have a set of 6" double bead lock fronts coming ( with my custom off set ), & a set of 8" double bead lock rears, (with my custom off sets)... they have mud shields, to keep dirt out of the inside, & cost less than the OMF, Douglas, or C lockers that I priced out... & they're made by your neighbors, in Iowa...
talk later...WAM
