Default They Grow So Fast!

I was out at the practice track yesterday with the camera shooting the kids. This morning while downloading the images of my daughter I can clearly see that she is out growing her LT50 that I have put so much time into. Racing starts again for us in february so I am on the hunt for a new larger faster quad. She is 7, a very fast and skilled little rider, will be racing in the under 90cc class. She is tall and leggy for her age. Suspension is a big condiseration for me as she spends alot of time in he air. Also cornering ability is important as she is very agile and watches for openings on the corners to pass.

Any suggestions on a good, proven race quad for her?

Is there a Kasea or a DRR dealer there. Check them out. They are both great mini's.

For the Cobra ya talking 8 grand to buy and more in racing it. Yes they will do 62 in no time. But there are cheaper ones like the new Hetrick mini the HSI. Full size mine and you change the cylinders from 50 to 70 or the 90cc, as the child grows. It to is a full race quad. It all depends on how much you want to spend. We ahve a full mod 70cc Production Cat. And just bought an 06 Honda trx 90 to go 125cc full trick out. Can't wait to get started on it.

I have been looking at specs on all of the different Major brands. What made yo choose the TRX over say the Raptor 80? I will call hetrick and look into the HSI. The Idea of growing bore with the child sounds great especially if it is a full race quad. I like the Cobra but since we don't do national racing I really don't see the point of her just kicking the crap out of the kids at the few circuts that we do within a few hours of home.

Have you had good luck on the track with the hetrick bike? What size is the frame? What kind of travel does it have?

Sorry first question kind of dumb.... I just scrolled down and read your sons rap sheet. Nice Job!
