Hey beechman did you attend FSW II at glamis? Did you by any chance see the sparks black raptor run? Think THAT RAPTOR can hang? Saw your pics, what does that thing weigh 50lbs wet

 

it weighs enough to strain a nut trying to pick it up by myself. Thats all i can tell ya.

I havent raced the sparks bikes, be fun to race it sometime though.

 

i got the ole trailblazer cranked and ready to role you ready dabeech

 

you going out this weekend pred?

 

I spoke to a buddie at Sparks and he said they built that Z to run the 100 octane pump gas, as far as he knew it was not on methanol. It didnt look like a drag bike at all, but I wouldnt like to ride any trails or dunes with no front brakes though. He is having his Z built right now and is not going to run methanol in his. Actually my buddy is the one with that fast Sparks 690 last weekend at Pismo, he just sold that bike to my friend to hop his Z up after he saw that run.

 

Has there been much water out of the river?TIA

 

I only got stuck 1 time,water was low.


Raptorowner i am working on my 5 bike lengths right now...Thanks for the honesty...remember mild 686.

 

Thats good, I would really like to see that bike run, that Sparks 690 was a mild one as well. It had the mild cams and 12.5 to 1 piston installed. I would like to set a date on which we can meet there again and race. My buddies like to go after or before the big holidays because they have kids and it gets too dangerous for them. But sometimes they get out by themselves and go for a day trip. Bigbaja has his engine tore down at the moment and it doesnt look like the 4th is looking good but I will hope for the best and maybe we can all meet up again. I am wanting to through my bike in at the sparks shop but heck, they said the waiting list is a year but I think my friend said he could get me in and out sooner than that but we will see. Talk at you later.

 

hey dabeech that is a negative on riding this weekend raining like hell here and if the forecaster is right it will be for 5 days.your lucky i just locked up the ole trailblazer

 

hey dabeech what paddle tires and size would work best on my predator and oh how many blades
