<< Hi Damian thanks for backing me up and pointing out the obvious to Justin. >>



the only thing obvious that he pointed out is that you can't make pipes.



<< Like I told you before on the phone and in forum postings I recommended a pipe be built from both the ORIGINAL RM PIPE **AND** aftermarket LT pipes which for your information modded LTs rev as high as an RMs. >>



so what if they rev similarly? if this were the case then a 2002 CR250 would rev closer to a 2002 RM250 then the LT revs closer to the RM (Counterbalancer makes a big difference, it's almost like having a second piston that doesn't make power) but it seems like when FMF make a new pipe for the CR250 it doesn't share the same dimensions with the RM 250 pipe... Correct me if I'm wrong but your port angles are going to also play a big role in the design of a pipe. When I went to design a pipe for my RM the program asked me for the exhaust port angle...



<< Who is this 'Darcy'? Post his company phone number, website, address we are all interested in his pipe works. >>



he doesn't have a website, and I do have his phone number but I'll ask him if he wants me to post it before I do.



<< My quad is 400 pounds with a full tank of fuel, so what??
It is a low cost prototype not a high dollar machine like yours, oh wait none of us have seen your frankenquad (your words)....my IRS LT is on the website for anyone who is curious.
>>



Sean has seen my quad 4 different times... maybe 5 when it was all in pieces. and he's seen pictures I took when I first got the roller... when he came over to my place the first time I had the engine in, everything put together and the plastics on he was very impressed. I would probably be, too because the quad does look pretty damn good aside from the old tires and rims that I'm replacing soon.



<< Justin btw yes I race when I have time out from my company where I try to make a living and I use my personal race quad as advertising just like any other racing shop. >>



this week when I was talking to Sean he said that you were at the races a week or two ago but you didn't race... seems like you had an oppurtunity to race, you were even at the track but you didn't race...



<< Justin you are invited to visit HSD anytime, see my work up close see my trophies... more than you will ever get hahaha >>



hahaha indeed. seeing how you got 7th out of eight and 10th out of eleven this year in the two races you raced this year... you would get cleaned by Sean, a rider with a year experience on a stock 400EX anyday... your bike should have more power, is a lot wider, lower, has better shocks, tires... Everything... Your bikes even weigh about the same with a full tank of gas and rider... I've heard about your 'riding' skills from other people, too. They've said you're pretty bad... So it all makes me wonder about these trophies you've got...

<< 1... Did I ever mention that I was the fastest???????????? >>



nope. you did say that you were serious about racing... I guess relatively speaking you are... but when I think of serious I sorta think of Sean and not somebody that races twice... even though it's out of your hands how many times you race...



<< 2... When did I mention anything bad about this so called Darcy guy??? Never >>



well, I never said you said that except you did scrutinize his work compared to marks' work... your exact words were &quot;Mr Justin Jones. your gonna tell me that you waited this long to get a pipe for your quad. Mark could of built you one when I last talked to you about three months ago.&quot;




<< When you get a little older you will relize what A full time job is, >>



Had one in heavy construction this summer... So I do completely understand.
