Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: dreth on July 22, 2005, 06:52:20 PM sandmountain is a motor cross track, flat track, peewee track, and some big hill climbs. its like $25 for riders and $5 for spectators. no food or water on site so you will need to bring your own stuff. and they might not have everything open be open . call first
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: cain73 on July 22, 2005, 07:03:32 PM Hills climbs ;D How big are we talking, and what's it like up top? Is there enough room to get air off the top without worrying about running off a cliff?

To much hill for that extra heavy turd you ride. ;D ;DTitle: Re: sand mountain Post by: ronny86250r on July 23, 2005, 11:33:40 AM found out that they are closed until after the meeting in august oh well will be going to big scrub tom.
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: cain73 on July 23, 2005, 01:49:48 PM Well I am going to have to check it out when they open up in August.
Quad32x - I know the weight of my quad, what does your weight? And make sure you include the conversion chart from stones to pounds for those of us riding things younger than most grandmothers :o ;D Don't bother knocking the spider webs and dust off that thing... you'll just get covered again trying to catck up to me :) Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: Quad32x on July 23, 2005, 02:17:57 PM Yea he he. ::) Sorry but at 392 lb its not quite the anchor that your sled is. The SS Bombdaqueer 650. Tee hee !! ;D ;D
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: cain73 on July 23, 2005, 06:42:35 PM I admit my 470 pound pig is heavy, but it's fun to ride. And I don't need a second mortgage to stock up on plugs for an antique like you LT (lazy transexual) 500. :o
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: GASGASMAN on July 23, 2005, 08:40:08 PM QUAD of course thats with out you on it right
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: cain73 on July 23, 2005, 09:20:39 PM Yep and that's dry weight too :o. With me and fluids it runs around 715 :-[ But with over 50HP and plenty of torque it still moves quite well for a tank on 4 wheels. What kind of hp and weight is the Gas Gas 300?

What kind of hp and weight is the Gas Gas 300? stock is 49 hp 356lbs ps if i told you my weight i'd be lyin to ya ;D ;D Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: cain73 on July 24, 2005, 10:35:25 AM But they come with pipe already set up, so it's comprable to mine HP wise now, but you definitely have a weight advantage. Too bad even that won't help you when you foul a plug and I take off riding ;D
Like I said I almost bought the Gas Gas 300, but the good thing about mine is that I don't have to be in a power band. When jumping my buddy on the lt250 has to be conscious of that where I can just roll up to a jump and hit the throttle. It's a big beast but I can make it fly. ;D I like the power of the 2 stroke (don't tell any one I said that) but the ease of riding a four is much more comfortable and enjoyable. If I was just drag racing I would have a 2 smoke, but other than that 4 is the only way to go. Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: Quad32x on July 24, 2005, 10:55:16 AM Hey Fat Steve , We need to take him to your private track and see if he can even get that big turd in the air ! ;D
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: cain73 on July 24, 2005, 11:57:15 AM I've had my "turd" 12 feet high which is a feat for the small jump it was on. I aint skeered of you 2 stroke boys ! 8)
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: Quad32x on July 24, 2005, 12:50:14 PM What ------- ya drop it off a cliff ? ;D ;D Come to think of it thats a race you might win seeing how that hunk of crap is so heavy Im sure it would beat most anything to the bottom !! ;D ;D ;D
Title: Re: sand mountain Post by: cain73 on July 24, 2005, 01:19:47 PM Well you might not be able to bottom out like me 8), but maybe you can work on tickling the sides a little :o ;D
