just around alberta sandy lake, frog lake, you'ce probably never herd of any of them but thats ok
my dad races in all of them in his banshee they got 2nd overall lost to a heavily moded 425R but they did win the main 24h ice race
these are not the oval races there like coarses with lots of turns most laps wins
so this year i'm going to try a few 6h obviously i won't win but it will be fun and i can get some experience.
hopefully ill have some fun
thanks for your help any other sugestions are great l8r

Right now im running stock banshee grips, but plan on going to Renthal. I had some Oury waffle grips on my old ytm225 and didnt like them , they were comfy but they got sticky and gooey??[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

The OURY grips are pretty nice if you like a soft grip. I don't suggest buying the Scott grips. They wear out really fast (rubber starts peeling off of them). Renthal grips look good (and come in soft, medium, or hard). I've alwas been happy with OURY.

dude, go back about three months in ATV sport mag, they tested some SERFAS grips. theyre kinda funney lookin, but boy do they work for cold weather. they tested them out on seadoos in puget sound, so they stay soft but dont get slick. i called the guy who makes them and he sent me some. Dirt wheels tested them the next month and said they were junk. WELL, it WAS DirtWheels, and theyre in a nice warm climate!
they may also call them spider grips. I have several friends around here who swear by them, not AT them.
will dig thru the stack of mags and find you an address....
very common on snowmobiles and watercraft,and the do make them for bikes as well.

talk with yas soon!

PS have a couple diff brands showing up tomorrow for testing on quads...they were on sale at rocky mtn ATV.....will let ya know...
