Last time I went and raced at The Landing I raced my old 400ex and I jumped the triple and when I landed the the ball joints on my Laeger a-arms snapped and it sent me into orbit. It put me out of racing for about a month with a concussion and a bruised kidney. Damn that back yard track!!!! How do like that crazy double thats kind of down hill?

Im 22 and will ride 250A and 4 stroke A next year. Hang in there and ride as much as you can. Practice makes Perfect. If you set your mind to it you can do it. We can meet up some time and ride.

Hey MrP, why didn't you just get a cannibal and then build it up yourself with a long-travel front end and your choice of shocks and stuff? Just curious, not trying to be nosey. I was just wondering if there is something I am overlooking about taking the cannibal route. I figured it up, and it comes out to be about the same price. They do have the same swingarms, right?

efg- Im going to have to go there and check it out. I might go this Thursday. If I do I will let you know. The finish line table top and gully double are WOT jumps and you just have to position your body correctly in the air. We will work on it next time we are both there.


beyer05- If I was having to pay for a Cannondale I would probably go that route. Im fortunate enough that I am being given a Moto 440 to race. If I was having to buy one I would more than likely buy a Cannibal and do the following to it: Moto 440 remapping, HMF exhaust, TAG X5 bars, Pro Design kill switch, Walsh Race Craft steering stem, Walsh Race Craft long travel a-arms, Axis or Elka shocks (probably Elka), AC pro pegs, WER steering stabalizer, RPM axle, and beadlocks front and rear. They do have the same swing arms. Either route you go you cant lose. I dont think you are being nosey, any question you ever have feel free to ask me. I eat, live, and breathe quads so it doesnt bother me. If you do plan on buying one check with me because I can get you an excellent deal on one.

Swan is one of the coolest tracks I have ever been on. I will be there. I wish they had more than one class I could run, maybe like a pro class for 2 stroke, 4 stroke, and open. That would be nice.

YoDaddy- There is going to be a pretty good bit of quads from what I am hearing. You better have enough money!!!! I finally got a month off from the Nationals so I can finally make me some money. I need to find a money tree.... is there any over in Texas..haha. You ought to look into going to Lorreta Lynns in August. Also, do you run any of the TQRA races? I have a friend that goes to all of them so I was just wondering.
