first thing: pipe or slip on, and jets. if you live up in the mountains, youll want to unload those two ply "tires". I had two flats in one day on those buggers and they went.
open up the exhaust and the intake and wake the beast.

160 is a good wheel for dunes and haulers are a great tire . I have a set of kenda trackers angled , picked um up at a decent cost but not quite enough wheel to me i would like to get a new set of haulers soon . The cheep 2 ply do suck wind badly get some razors those are the chit great for sliding i noticed my holeshots grab so much in cornering i'm hanging off trying to keep from 2 wheeling . but oh well till then i'll burn up the hole shots .

HAHAHA yeah i have noticed that too! they grip really well. i just pump em up to about 5 pounds when i wanna slide hehe
havent tried razrs, maybe when the holeshots wear out.
