  1. are the shearers small flange? what is the overall condition on a 1-10?
  2. At this last race, i think there was only one bike that turned in the 3's and it was a triple. some dm's were running 4.0?'s I just bought some 14 pdl ext i can't wait to try out. I'm spinning bad at the start and need to do something with my clutch too? I think this conversion in the far lane ran 4.2
  3. any idea what i should start with for arm weight? or is that a secret
  4. i don't know my arm weights. i have ran it will all oem springs and though i was slipping too much (seat of the pants) and no times...... so i put in 3 stiff, 3 oem. pic is with all oem springs and yes that's me in last...lol.
  5. Yeah, that's what i'm thinking too. lowering my 60ft will help my et and don't worry about so much about mph. guess it's time to get the wallet out and get some tires. i try tires first and then work on the gearing.
  6. i think i'm close to being maxed now with 15/42, so with a 16 or 17 i might be able to get it into 5th but i'm sure it won't be maxed out. will be easy to try though just to see if it makes a 60ft difference .
  7. do you get into 5th with a 16 or 17/44?
  8. k i'll try the 16 on the front, i don"t know where that will put me at the finish in 4th or 5th but will find out.
  9. Yeah i launch in second and get it into third right away, no bog at all. i might be able to launch in third but i thought that would blow the tires out worse? i'll keep my eye out for some 14 extremes for sure and see if i can stiffen up the rear shock some more too. it's weird cause it use to lift with the stock soft shock on, but now that is lowered with the stiffer shock, doesn't lift at all?
  10. first time to a 300ft sand drag race and i can't seem to get launched. the track is all sand, no dirt mix. my set up is a 10 cub, 150 lb rider, 15/42 gear, stock frame, +8 swinger, +2 a-arms, lowered with R6 rear and ex300 front shocks. i started with 72" ro 12 paddle extremes and then tried a buddies 72" ro 13 paddle extremes. my 60ft times didn't really change much from switching tires. my et got .056 quicker though. i've posted a couple pictures and time slips, hoping for some advise on my set up. i'm number 24 on the slips, orange in the pics, my kid is #28 on a 7mm stock cylinder we switch tires on his too for comparison. something else too, my front never lifts at all now since i switched shocks to lower it? i've got a ton of times slips, no 60ft time quicker than the one with my son riding (1.759). http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/m501/daweaseltoo/DSCN6394.jpg http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/m501/daweaseltoo/DSCN6388.jpg http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/m501/daweaseltoo/sanddragtimes032.jpg my kid (115 lbs) ran 60ft in 1.759 and a 4.30 on #24.
  11. I just installed a R6 shock with a red spring, vertical reservoir. Lowered it 8 inches with a 8 over swinger. Had to make some bushings for the bottom bolt/link.
