Hmmm, that makes you the oldest person I have ever seen riding a Raptor [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img].
If you're that old and you lived in Big Spring in the early to mid 60s then you should be able to figure out where the handle &quot;Wolley&quot; came from.
MOJO 78

Probably older that that...Class of '58. I left BS in '61 after attending HCJC. My parents lived there until '70. Noticed the Mojo '78. My brother taught at Permain H.S. about that time and was later in the school administration building. I have always been a Mojo fan. I see then play every chance I get when they are in the Dallas area.

yeah that ds was kind of slow wasn't it. it's pathetic that he had paddles and we had street tires and we still beat him. i found some nitrous for my shee but i'll probably have to wait a few months before i can get it connected to my wheeler, right now im fixing to order me some haulers from rocky mountain in about 2 or 3 weeks or so.

Rapdaddy - Good to hear from you. Sounds like you and SomeCrazyMexican had a good time after I left. I took mine out to 14mins. track Sat. and had a fun day. Really like the way mine sits now that it is lowered. Looks like a flat tracker. Like the way it handles also. It does ride a little harder and I bottomed out on a really hard dip but I don't jump it much anyway. It sits about the same height as a banshee. Another friend from near San Antonio (that we met in Kermit last year) was there and he has gotten rid of his Raptor and Sat. was his first day to have his new Z400. Great bike. I rode it some and it really handles nice. It was not broken in at all and he didn't push it to the limits and it stayed up surprisingly well with our Raptors and Banshee. Should run really well when he gets some miles on it. When I was with you out west, I sold my paddles to the guy who lost his buddy that we could not find that night. I went to Little Sahara a week or so ago and ended up wishing I had them back so I got a full set Sat. Ready to back to Kermit. The bunch from here is planning on going back on June 7. I'm hoping Ralph will be there. He leaves this Wed. to go to Utah to ride so maybe he will be back by then. I have been having trouble with my computer here at home and cannot find the pics. of my lowered Raptor so I will look at work tomorrow and send them if I have some there.

We have a group coming out on June 7. That seems to be the earliest any of our group can make it.
