The ohter thing is bikes need to be numbered better. if your going to run a T&T on friday night, the tower needs to be able to see the #'s on the bike clearly, or your going to have to have someone out there writing the #'s down and then transfer them to the time slips.
-
you are correct. from my understanding the et is from the time the final stage beam is broke untll you cross the finish line. the 60 ft. is from the beam that is after the stage beam till the 60 ft. box, and the rt is from the time the tree goes green and the stage beam is broke. at the starting line you have pre stage, stage, and a beam after that, that I think is for 60 ft. time. Jeff can give us more information on this, because he has all the info from porta tree.
-
yeah, you can run a faster et, but get holeshot and lose. I holeshot tony on one of my bad passes. ran a 4.01 tree 4.15 et to his .600 tree 4.08 et. and won. I made up .2 of a second at the light, so he would of had to run an et of .2 or faster to beat me.
i doubt any bike in the stock class had port work. they seemed to run comparible in my opinion. the only person that can protest would be the person in the class, and trust me, i would call it if i thought it was legit. that is not a matter of being a sore loser, it is a matter of catching a cheater or not. can't be a sore loser if you have someone cheating to win in my opinion.
on the other hand there is no way anyone is going to be able to protest if they don't get started earlier. getting started on time is very critical for next month in my opinion.
oh, and yeah someone needs to clearly lay out the rules on this site and the florida site.
-
stock banshee class, basically is what is says.
pro stock banshee, no port work, +2 swinger, bolt on parts, no out of frame drag pipes.
350 mod class, stock cylinder, port work, wheelie bar, out of frame drag pipes.
outlaw, aftermarket cylinders, run what ya brung, and hope ya brought enough.

you won't be the only one....i talked to troy today, and i am dissappointed that we didn't hit the 3's....after looking at the videos, i don't feel my driving was that great, and that is the main reason we didn't go into the 3's on saturday. i am going to tighten up next race, and see what we can do. the more i watch the videos, the more i see i need to correct to get better and we are gonna work on that. i am just totaly freaking bummed out that we didn't atleast run some 3's.
-
foot peg broke.....i have him by 2 bike lengths at the 60 ft. and i guess his foot peg broke, cause i was in the return lane and saw him coming down the track.
-
yeah I don't even own a bike anymore, used to have one, but money became an object to keep up and I opted to get married instead, so know I just go around and pit bit*h for troy and don. No don, serious man that bike was smooth leaving the line but felt like you hit the hose about the 60 ft. I am not sure what my 60 ft. times were. To be honest I didn't grab any time slips, because I was dissapointed we didn't get in the 3's on both of the bikes. I just feel the track wasn't there for it yesterday, but it was kind of a let down to me. oh well we will give it another shot in april.
-
No, the track doesnt make money from this !!!, It was done by a member from another site, solely because we asked him to come out.He makes his money from the pics, He doesnt charge to come out and take them.
Yes, thats Jason ( smokinbanshee), he is Troys jockey, I just took advantage of him because mine didnt show up !!!!!
I feel soo violated man......LMAO, and that was the first time I had ever set on the bike too, so I was riding cold. Times did get faster as I settled in. That little motor was freaking wicked man, unbelieveable how hard it pulls. The silenced pipes make it sound soo soft until you ride it and it is like a handful after the 60 ft. Very nice bike.
-
yep that is me. yeah don's jockey gave him the no call no show yesterday, but I am troy's normal jockey. I was mostly in the tower helping teach Jeff's wife how to run the brackets and she did a great job I think. I didn't get the opportunity to meet anyone either, just got to say hi to the people that I knew.
-
here is a link to a photographer that was out there yesterday. Did a great job taking pics. 749 total pics.

Hey what paddles sshould I get for a :7mm 68mm Cub
38pwks on gas
PD Coolhead with 17cc domes
VF3s
+7 timing
I was thinking a 10 paddle would be enough but I rather here it from someone who knows about it.
trial and error is the best advice. I think 10 padddle or 12 paddle would be a really good start.

dyno, does troy have some paddles still for sale? someone might be able to pick them up for a reasonable price. thanks dynodon and orange crush for the wonderful rides today. them bikes were riding for sure.
-
I am not sure about the pro tree for the stock class, you will have to talk to jeff. my personal opinion is run a pro tree in every single class except the index or bracket class. we were running out of time at the end of the day, but we really should of went back to a normal tree instead of a pro tree. I don't like really like racing when the tree varies, plus it is extra work to remember when starting the class.
I think orange crush had more zip ties holding it together than welds today. I have never seen a pingle close during a pass down the track, but it sure did, several times. And the freaking pipe brackets. I haven't seen one yet that hasn't broke. I think the only way to solve that is a rubber garmet or something to allow it to flex.
oh man that 4 mill was running and that orange crush was running too.
-
You are not kidding....All the big boys were breaking today. Bansheeboy tony farrow had to rebuild the whole electrical end of the purple bike and Orange Crush was leaking more alcohol than it was burning, but we got the job done baby. I think the track record is set at 4.03, but Jeff will have to confirm. That giant killer 4 mill that dynodon has was sure enough showing out today. Winning the heavy hitter's class and winning the 550cc and under class. I ended up cutting a near perfect light today, .401. I think I am more happy about that than anything. Can't wait till august.

i will be there, to many customers and it's only 2 1/2 hours from my shop
but i am going to be moving to phoenix this summer so it might be my last one
Just put your phone number at the bottom of your post, everyone knows about them chassis and how well they run.
-
Damien, glad you could make it as Chuckie still has me banned and im not about to pay to get on thier political site. Most guys know by word of mouth that you make some killer frames at great prices. Did i just say that out loud and recommend Quick16??? Oh thats right , this is BansheeHQ and the "moderaters" (Charlie) cant ban you over here. LMAO Now more than ever am i glad Ohton didnt call me back as i was ready to put up the banner on PS but flighty as he was he wouldnt call back. Oh well i guess when he sees it on HQ he will know i was serious along with all his people coming over here too. HA
Charlie didn't call you back....shocker, he never called Orange Crush back either....Roll On Banshee HQ...
-
Just keep sening those chassis to Arizona, we will find homes for them :thumbsup:
That was a great reply....sending them to Ohton's home state...I bet he is not liking the looks of this, because he is watching this site...He became a member when all the shit started about the Orange Crush chassis that took forever to get.

It says in the ad no 3 wheelers.......why? There are a lot of laydown 3 wheelers out there, and also atc250r drag bikes. That will keep all of the fast Kentucky boys out of there. The fastest bike in the country is a 3 wheeler. Are you telling me you would'nt want that kind of exposure!!!!!!!
not sure, those guys are still at the track today working, so they will not be able to respond till tomorrow. Here are some videos from yesterday.

WE WILL BE THERE ON FRIDAY SETTING UP THE TIMING SYSTEM FOR TNT ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. IF ANYONE WANTS TO RUN DOWN THE TRACK FOR FUN OR TNT IT WILL BE $5.00 FOR THE DAY.
tested the track today. everything went smooth, track was excellent. the sprinklers are very very nice. hopefully the turn out will pick up for the race in february. track crew did a wonderful job today running the lights and keeping the track in great condition.

wow all this could have been pmed back and forth then you wouldnt have all these little chimmers who have nothing to do with this!!!
Jeff (F.A.S.T)
I see where you got banned from PS too? What happened?
-
not at all jeff ,im refering to the whole thing bein posted and everyone elses opinions getting posted when none of us on hq really no what or who is to blame!! plus doin it this way just gets abunch of people on a lynch wagon that has no clue!! your just pm'm bro, by the way what road do u turn off the highway to get to your spot again? im headin up to topeka sometime to pick a swingarm up off eli and need some other stuff from ya!
kind of hard to restrict who post what on a public forum. Orange Crush had a problem, he aired it out with the intent to inform people. Can't hate a brotha for that can ya?
This is a true statement here. The best builder is a builder that WILL ANSWER THE PHONE. Also tell you it is going to be a month before you stuff ships, instead of lieing about it being shipped.
what woulld the rules be for each class at c&r?

No, from slowest to fastest in theory is this.
stock, pro stock, 350 mod.
If that is not the way it goes, the rules have been posted incorrectly. 350 mod allows out of frame drag pipes, longer swing arms, override trannies. etc.
