Title: Drag Racing Weekend........Put Up Or Shut Up
Post by: Paul_S on July 12, 2010, 09:13:50 AM
OK, who is up for a drag racing weekend.

There is a lot of smack talk going around the forum right now, time to put up or shut up.

No time slip needed to enter...just bring your chit and race.

We will have a stock class, which will be obviously dominated by my 525 ktm powered Outlaw, and an open class for the modified and those who don't want a piece of the Outlaw. We can add some more classes as needed.

Could do it in Sept when the heat dies down a little.

How are you going to judge what is stock and modified, theology says you have to race in modified since its a big bore.

We are looking at some ways to get some of the slower bikes onto the finish line jump a little faster. We may use a bit of the old drag strip. It is being worked on.  ;)

You're going to have to create a special 400ex class because they're so much faster than any other bike on the planet. It wouldn't be fair to let them race anything but another 400.

Post by: 08KFX450r on July 12, 2010, 07:27:05 PM
Wait one minute!! Are you saying the 400ex's are going to beat the 450's on the race track? If so, are you goin to be the one on it?? ;D ;D

Paul, if you do this I'd be happy to help out with class structures and elimination brackets. When we used to race at Saltsdale we ran double elimination and a bracket system kind of like monster truck racing. Winners braket, losers bracket. Sometimes you could be allowed to buy back in. Sounds fun.

Man, I want to see you guys with these 400's blow away a 450, and I will be up for a race on the mx track.

Post by: Ida_Mann on July 13, 2010, 08:32:33 PM
dunno about blowing away, but me and my 280# body on my '99 400EX got beat by only one length against a 100# guy on a 450 ;-)
