second, third, then fourth

1) Knobbies
2) 7800ft above sea level
3) Too long of swingarms for that area (paddles are different story)

That is the slowest videos I've ever seen of high HP Raptors. I hope you didn't spend much money on that build. Was that atc even running right?

Looked pretty good to me. Looked flat on top of each gear but hell at 8000 feet i would need a oxygen bottle. How many people play on any given day there? What does the altitude do for octane requirements? Do you drop the number quite a bit?

We go up there for the hill climbs, not to drag race. I'm trying to post some of the hill climbs, you will be impressed.

Not too many people know about that place. The busiest time is 4th of July and Labor day, only gets up to about 75-80 degrees vs 110 in Tucson. Probably around 200 people on a holiday weekend, I think it is snowing there right now though.

We keep the octane the same up there(vp c12). We should drop it but they run good enough to climb almost every hill without paddles.



ANOTHER POINT: I did not post these videos to impress anyone. Just share a riding area and some races. I did not say I was fast or these videos were impressive. Anyways, I hope to get the new videos up and running soon. Those will be impressive. I'll be @ the dunes and my speed picks up a little[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

+6 swing arm seems like too much to be a fun ride. mod and keep the swing arm stock, now thats fun! Wheelies all day long... Good video's though, would be nice to see it with paddles.

Rapfam- I like the video and would like to see more. You should check the octane though. I made the mistake of putting to much octane in my truck this summer in the mountains, truck acted like a overweight DS[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
