thats B/A!!! My bike is stock apart from: rear tires (20x10x9 dunlop) GYTR air filter, t04 exhaust and a new axle. it was fun yesterday!! i smashed my knees pretty bad again though. im gonna start wearing knee pads. haha

What a coincidence, I was there sunday from about 1-330.
Not sure I noticed you guys. What did you ride?
Next time I go out there, I'll try to post on here and I'll park w/ you guys.
Always looking for new friends to ride with, especially motocross (im a noob)

My friend Charlie and myself will be out at Bartow Motocross from around 4 until we are too sore to ride.
I got a new G-Force axle and rode on Sunday with a lowered tire pressure and I did quite well, in comparison to last time.
I had over-pressured tires and a shorter stock axle. Now I'm clearing most tabletops and sets of doubles.
FYI, Bartow has supercross and motocross to ride on, and when it gets busy, they do class divisions as appropriate.
Looking for a few new friends to hit the track w/ and learn some tricks and techniques to master the track.
My email would be the best way to contact me, for I forget to check ATV Florida -- andrew.lenigan@hotmail.com
Just let me know if you're interested, and I'll see you there!
Have a good day,
Andrew

Thanks Ol' Boys
Charlie Brown. (LOL)

If you have a GoPro or a HD GoPro, what size memory card do you recommend? I only got about 33 minutes of video on a 4 gb card with my HD GoPro. Im thinking about getting a 32gb or something larger.
Thanks,
Drew

Bailey: Good point. It was a used bike and Idk how many times the brake break was used.
Johnny: It is a 350 special edition 6 speed.
yfz: this whole thing sounds like i need to have it serviced. :/
chillin: i hold the clutch in whenever i stop suddenly, i think its the fact that the brake is so tough that it stops the rear end or something.
I guess I need to take it to Barney's, but at 40 bucks for 30 minutes of labor, not having any money, and having a few brake issues to be addressed, i cant afford it at this time.
thanks for all the advice guys.

thanks man. i also notice that when i get to the top of 6th gear, my motor shuts off. bad, normal?

Any suggestions? Slamming on rear brake to stop in emergencies : obviously necessary. Brake in its condition : unusable in such a situation. It squeals bloody murder and sometimes stops my engine. Brake pads, or rotors? Easy fixes?
Thanks guys
Andrew

Never doubted you Jay
I can't make it next weekend cause I gotta help with a paintball game we run.
It sucks! I was dying to go.
Oh well, hopefully someone will meet me at EBMX on Wed.

Hell yeah Johnny R, ain't that the truth.
Raptor 350SE is where it's at.

Also, DFMR: I ain't gonna get stuck out there am I?
I got a four wheel drive f-150 but I pretty much got slicks.
Cheap bastard that owned it before me took off the better tires and rims and put the less off-road worthy ones on.
If I do, oh well.
I'll print out the waiver this week eventually, and hopefully be up there bright and early saturday morning.

DFMR: No problem. Anticipating next Saturday if I'm not held up by plans made NOT according to me.
YFZ: Yes, I know, BUT "it's been a long week" and Rancho is just a 'get out and ride' place for me and a nooby friend.
I'm looking forward to trying out DFMR's track, and (stupidly) to get used to tracks in general, I'm gonna go to East Bay this Wednesday for quad night! Hopefully I'll make a friend or two and meet up with someone there. REALLY don't wanna get I disagree run over by the pros that night.
DMFR: I mud (which is a sin) with my Yamaha Raptor 350se so I'm dying to look like a fool in the pits and on the trails mudding.
I know yalls trails are dry but sh*t, mudding is where it's at!
See y'all around.
Message me for my number so I can get DMFR details for next satuday
Available from 3pm-9pm pretty much. (High school)
-Andrew

Pretty much go every Saturday, but I'm officially switching to Dirty Foot Mud Ranch as of next week
(9-11-10)
I'm going to Rancho tomorrow (9-10-10)
If anyone is heading up there, and wants to meet up, I park in the little spot off O'Conner.
That doesn't matter too much, cause we can meet somewhere.
Looking for new people to ride with.
I got a Yamaha Raptor 350se so I don't go boggin, but I'll do my share of mudding.
See yall out there
Andrew

Wade: If you give me your number through a message I'll give you a call and head up next wednesday!
What kind of quad do you have ? Hard to see icon.

Wade: is it open to whoever shows up or is it for the racers that race that night? meaning, can i just show up, pay whatever fees and ride?
Jay: what city is DFMR in? I'm in Seffner, but obviously Rancho is in Zephyrhills area so I don't mind a drive to go crazy (:
If you have facebook, could you add me? I won't always be on ATVF but I'm usually on FB.
Thanks guys

Hey guys!
My name's Andrew and I live in Tampa.
I have the 2005 Yamaha Raptor 350se and I want to know if there are any places out there with "open to the public" tracks.
Places where a guy wanting to race (yours truly) can get acquainted with the feel of a real track, the corners, jumps, etc.
If anyone has any advice I would really appreciate any information I can get.
I usually ride at Rancho if anyone rides there, we could meet up some Saturday.
Thanks for your time, guys,
Andrew
