We ran the track some today, and let me tell you it is in the best shape it has ever been. It's pretty much very loose plowed up dirt and I was hooking up great with a set of stock raptor tires, 4 snows were hooking up good as well. I would say paddles would be a little much for the conditions, I know we are going to work on the track more before the races, but I don't see it being loose enough for paddles.

 

It's great to hear that the track is in good shape. The better the track, the better the times will be. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

RaptorRidrTX,

I don't want to read this whole thread but is the race at the new or old track?

I just haven't been keeping up[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

Sounds good, hope its nice and smooth because im running struts.

 

I'm pumped for this... I'll be there w/ 2 of my buddies..... My 'shee, 86 250r and a cr125 (If bikes are welcome). Prolly roll in sometime mid afternoon friday and setup camp for the weekend.

Unless something big changes between now and then it's gonna be at the old one

 

Old Track.

Has the shutdown area been extended for the super fast bikes?

 

Thanks guys........... It has been a while.

Everything is going pretty well, mechanically everything is tuned and ready to rip! Just trying to find time for our first trip to Silver Lake.

 

Is anyone else running struts there?

 

From what we have talked about so far, the official races will all be under 660 feet. A lot of the bikes are getting too fast to be running that distance. The only time I have ever noticed anyone having to worry about shut down room is when they keep running past 660 feet. Adam, as of yesterday I would say it was still a little rough for struts but we will be working on it more and more up until the races. Remember this is dirt and not sand, if you can get your hands on a set of shocks I would bring them just in case.
