Bert,
I went all through that hole and pushed some folks out. The gar was everywhere. Sunday I went back out and the fine folks from Fun Wheeler told us there was somebody stuck. So went over to the same hole they had already gotten out, from what I was told they was there for a little while. The gar had calmed down and I put on grizzly show. I did asked the owners (not gonna mention names here)about a waiver on the gar bites. LOL..... They said it was in small, small print.

TAZ

Yeah I don't believe I thanked you either on the bert samples. We'll give it try. That other cleaner you spoke of was "winked" ?

I'd like to have seen what Greg could do with the HO, and 20% (claimed) more power and an EPI clutch kit!

So Greg,

What do you think of the AG tires for pure mud? Kinda like a hot knife on butter? Maybe ag front, and a wide rear!

I did run a 2000SP500 with all the HO mods plus some. He has a 40mm carb, pipe, cam, head work, k&n etc... I took him is every mud race. His daughter took me by 1.5' in the drag. She weighs 90lbs I weight 215lbs. I think if Brad would have been on it I would have had a better chance.

Also I believe the fact that I ran well in all the events and especially the barrels, it shows that I have a good all round set up for handling and mud. I could easily make the bike perform better but it would be at the price of reliabilty.

Greg

THE CLEANER I TOLD YOU ABOUT IS WINK. BE CAREFULL IT IS A ACID & MAY DAMAGE OR DISCOLOR SOME ITEMS
(THE FUMES ARE BAD ALSO). I HAVE USED THE PRODUCT WITH GOOD RESULTS. TEST IN INCONSPICUOUS PLACE.
YOUR ALUMINUM SHOULD LOOK LIKE NEW. I FOUND THIS PRODUCT AT WALMART.

It's fish that has a mouth resembling an alligator that eat other fish (they are called trash fish). They taste bad, are boney, and eat the good fish. Most fishermen kill them.

Also, a little known fact, they will school together & attack yellow sportsman 500's
