Wide quads at Croom...

I may be goin to Croom monday and I was wonderin if any of you guys with wide quads make it through all the trails without any problems. I've got a stock axle with offset wheels and Durablue spacers, its around 52 inches wide. The guy I'm goin with has a cr500 and says the trails he rides are pretty tight and I should take the spacers off.
I hate to take em off just cuz its a PITA and it handles better anyways, but I really dont wanna clip any trees following his pace in the trails.
Thanks

Personally i think croom is more from dirt bikes than quads the trails can be tight and alot of the hills have single tire ruts on one side, makes them pretty interesting

It is a little tight at places. The place used to be for bikes only back in 73 when they opened.

That pic doesn't do it any justice. It looks alot wider in person. Other pics you have of it, sure do make it look alot wider.

I have a kfx 700 with a 47.0 inch width and i make it threw just fine.. But i did bend a tie rod end last weekend in those pits with the cutout trails that lead down into them...
Right wheel hit the side and jammed and i guess i was holding the handlebars tight and the left wheel could not turn right so it made the tie rod bar a half moon shape :-/....
But with 52inch width you might knock down some extra trees on the side of some of the trails.. or even find some stumps that will wake you right up
