ATV Florida Forum

We haven't had a poll in a while. They're a good way to talk smack. If I forgot to add someone to the list let me know and I'll add them in.


PS- I voted for that bad azz black Honda.....

Oh hell thats to easy. Dereks gonna bare bottom spank all them other punks.  rolback1

I'm picking Dave Ware that Banshee is bad ass and this track is perfect for it, I hope Dave can hold on to that thing because he will probably be airborne if he holds it wide open.

S.M.

I see how it is with the Yamaha guys. They all stick together like a bunch of Pygmies

i second that! ;)

im not sure if scott is going to race or not. but, if he does he will most likely be on steves MMR ktm550.
i have riden all the 2 strokes on the list and i like my chances.  i cant wait to see dave and brady mix it up. bradys 350R sure runs GOOD at high speeds. dave gonna have his hands full. :P  but on the other hand hopefully i will be ahead of them both ;) so i wont get to see it just hear about it after the race. cant wait till the 17th. its gonna be awsome! 8)

and i see that bamaquad is on the list. cant wait to show that raptor how us bigboys do it! ;D

ahh but you forgot that mad fast Gary Sisson!

Gonna be a good time!  b:r

HEY come on now How come you didnt put me in there?

did you say something? :-\

Man chet.  Yall know that Mystic power gonna whoop that behind. Update I got tonite says I might be out there with my 500. Looks to me like it might be nothing more than a Mystic Motorsports beat down come the 17th.  8)

You think you'll have the hybrid back by then?

I've only seen one of these quads run other than mine and that was Daves shee.

I've never run on a 3/8 mile track but I have run on a 3/10 with 30 degree banking track and never got close to changing into 5th.

Should be fun, the torque of a hard pulling 4 stroke against the high reving hp of the 2 strokes.

Gonna pack my sprockets, that's for sure. ;)

I've never run on a 3/8 mile track but I have run on a 5/8 track and never got close to changing into 5th.

Should be fun, the torque of a hard pulling 4 stroke against the high reving hp of the 2 strokes.

Gonna pack my sprockets, that's for sure. ;)

What track was that? A 5/8 mile is quite a bit bigger than this 3/8 mile, 1/4 mile bigger actually.  

and i see that bamaquad is on the list. cant wait to show that raptor how us bigboys do it! ;D

It's definitely going to be a long haul with gas prices as high as they are & getting about 10 miles a gallon pulling a trailer.

The only thing that would steer me away from coming as of right now would be the slightest hint of rain in the forecast for that Saturday. :-\

 S'anyone know if turf tamers are Z rated cause thats what I'll be runnin for the knobbie class 8)

No sass... I'm just sayin' that it looks like confidence in that black Honda is starting to climb.....  :o

yeah its plenty FAST!   all it needs is the rider to get RIGHT!   ::)   we spent all weekend working on the tooth and its running better than ever.  less than 2 weeks to go. 8)

The rider will be just fine. Don't forget he has a key to that track.... ;)

what tires are we talking about?

Sounds like you have had time to practice on the track and I was questioning as to how how the tires (Hoosier or American Racer) were holding up.  I only ask because at Eastbay they were killing brand new tires in a day  ???

no, i havent been to this track ever. i have only seen it on the videos. brady was just playing wit me. :P  but my guess would be its gonna be a tire eater. ;)  wont know till we get there. :dunno.gif

Ok I guess you can never trust what comes out of Brady's mouth  :deal.gif

i thought all floridiens were like that! :o

Just like all Georgians are gay.  <sofa peeky>

hey...... leave all that gay talk at home fella. :N   besides i know you aint talkin mr. sasuage man! :foot.gif

We rode on the track this past weekend. We didn't ride the whole track, but half on the clay, and half on the asphalt infield. I ran 10 compound Tri Trac rears, and they show minimal wear. I didn't notice anyone else with flat track tires showing substantial tire wear. The guys with knobbies were showing some good wear though.

   

The Raptor nation is alive & well. ;)  WOO HOO!!!!

Where's my name. 8)

coming out of retirement!!!  What about the 2 stroke?

How are these people getting time to ride on the tracks, Ocala, Auburndale....

I have not seen any posting for open practice.....


Oh thats right I am no one  ViO

Brett, I don't want to get smoked now do I, just kinding the 2 stroke is set up for mx now.
I think time to switch to TT and FT now. I have a bad wrist, knee, right and left shoulders all from MX its time for a smoother style of racing. Do to my injury's I can only ride MX at about 80 percent but I think I can ride TT at nearly 100%.
I may also occasionally ride some MX. 8)

It's because you're so fast you don't need any practice. Oh... wait... nevermind.... you ride a Suzuki, so that can't be it.

Seriously, Auburndale does have some practices. The riding at the Ocala track was for the "quad wars" for the Monster Jam they had there this past weekend. We didn't run the whole track, just a small course set up in the front of it.

I believe that the Suzuki Gary rides put it to you several times so you better watch it  :-*

Just got through doing my Google search for directions. What a freaking haul, 536 miles and 8hrs driving time without a trailer. Can probably add 2-3 hours with a trailer on that 8 hours. GEEZ. :-\

536 MILES @ 10 miles per gallon of gas pulling the 24footer. :drive.gif Guestimating here!!!
That's 53 gallons of gas 1 way and 106 dowm and back @ $3.47 a gallon = $367.00 in gas there & back. Hotel room for 2 nights is roughly $300.00. Then there's food for 4, another $100.00. :'(

Roughly it's gonna take about $800.00 to come and race.  :K

Forgot to mention my entry fee.

What is the entry fee and what is the payback? :dunno.gif

dang.. that sucks! you know what the problem is... everything costs more but we still make the same.
well, good luck on your trip and we should see you at the track. 8)

Looks like I'm going to have to punk out of this one. I drove the trailer to Huntsville last night and I get 200 miles to a tank of gas. If I travel to Ocala & back that's 1,072 miles and 200 to a tank. You do the math, almost 6 tanks to come race, I don't think so.

Just using a little common sense here, not worth it to come and race to me.

Sorry fellows, maybe if you have 1 scheduled in Georgia I will make it.

Ya, me too.   ;D  Great job to all the riders though, it sure was a good race.

thanks to all my voters! :Fp  it was a long day but in the main i get my bike running good enough to pull out a win. theres still alot more left in it just needs more tuning time. we had a great time and thanks to everyone that helped put on the race. look forward to doing it again next weekend.
does anyone have any pics of the sabertooth on 2 wheels? 8)

I have pics in my mind, everytime you shifted that thing twisted up... It was awesome!
Wish my camera batteries hadn't died so early.
Congrats on the win Derek!
