How did he mishandle the situation. I may be out of the loop here on this but I thought he did all that he could in setting up the event with little assistance. I have heard people say "he should have done this" or " He should have done that but yet few people offer him help in organizing the event itself. I think its a great thing he does in putting together FSW and it affords us atv "FREAKS" a chance to get together and run'em.

I myself setup and help run an anuual event and its alot of work. (California Deer Association) There is so much behind the scenes stuff that must be done to put on any event and I am only one of many who throw it. From the sounds of it King has little help and one can only do so much. We make mistakes too in doing these charity events. Its kind of a trial and error thing and we learn from our mistakes as we go. Bottom line in my book is a HUGE thanks to KING and to Tim Barker because without the two of them, I wouldnt have my dream raptor build..........

 

Petedog...congrats on the Barker build.....What cam are you gonna go with..We are both running the same compression but I have the stage 2 hotcam and was concidering the Megacycle X-4 or (The Sparks High Rev Cam)but didn't want to lose any dunability. I may just stick with the Hotcam.And is your piston a Ross?

 

Tim likes the megacycle cam and the JE pistons. So that is what I went with. I pretty much let him come up with teh combo of parts and porting that he liked best. I figurred he knows a little more then I do about putting together a fast motor. I also went with one of his rods, a new clutch, springs, valves,etc. Had him work it over from top to bottom. Also will be running the Barker Duals to finish it off.

 

Pete - Did you get the six spring clutch setup?

 

Yup

Its supposed top be on its way back to me now. I should have the motor and exhaust within a week. I am trying to get it all together for a test run on April 1st @ Sand Mt. NV

 

Cool, you will like that clutch!! Its the best setup for the raptor.
