TFTB,

Nope, now that I see your quad that was not you.

Lots of great pics. Were your drag pics from Friday or Saturday or both. Saturday afternoon there was people lined almost all the way down the length of the drag lane.

In the midst of winning some and losing some, I got spanked by that same Sparks 690. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I'd sit there and watch to know who was fast and who was just piped etc and jump in with similar competition. Then this guy rolls up, I thought cool. Next thing I knew he was gone. LOL.

Here are 5 pics from our adventures at Pismo on Saturday.

Pismo pics.

Sweet pics. I am bummed I missed out on the stuck jeep.

Hey, I have to get paddles for my wife's new Raptor. What size & kind do you have?

I see you are running wheel spacers on the rear and what is it exactly that you have done in the front?

Thanks.

Ive got 22" 8 paddle haulers and they work excellent. Holeshot is not a problem. Keeping the front end down is. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Yes I have 2 1/2" rear wheel spacers that widen my rear to aprox 49". The fronts are douglas 1" offset wheels. That widens the front to aprox 47 1/2" almost 48" with the current XCT holeshots. The inexpensive way I widened my quad has made a world of difference. I just need some good front shocks. I jump some. My biggest jump has probably been 3-4' off the ground and 10-15' long. I'm not a massive jumper and the wheel spacers have had no ill side affects. One of my best purchases.
