  1. Water tower might be ok but depends on how busy aka the weather. What time indiana time are we meeting up
  2. I'm ready to go. I just hope everyone who says they are coming actually show up.. if so it should be a really good time!
  3. Haha yeah I love two strokes and when the twin idles it sound like a pissed off harley! Congrats on the other scuba steve running around! I finally realized why mine has been running weird. I had like 70 psi in each cylinder asll year last year but I've got a ton of new parts and rebuild done and broke in and I'm ready to hit the pea gravel with the other 350 boys. Just wish we could do this all the time.
  4. Count me in, got mine rebuilt this winter and all broke in and im ready for a trip there. Ill also bring a honda 250 for backup if anyone needs it.
  5. i wouldnt get too cocky. i traded my 01 660 for my shee and it ripped! mine was basically stock when i got it and now its all beefed up except the motor. sooo it just really depends on the type of "race." and....since its your son, you might give him a head start if its a drag, cause he will be choking on your dirt all the way home!
  6. that always happens to me, pisses me off!
  7. ive been doing rc for many years. the real difference is quality. if you are going to use the one you posted from flea bay just every once in a while and dont plan on bashing it, that would be fine. the main thing is that HPI is an amazing company and has support and every part/hop up for the machines they make, past and present. the 2 stroke hpi series arent really set up for speed, because they are really heavy, they have a lot of torque though, just depends on what you plan on doing to it. if you want durability for jumping and such i dont thing youll find a more sturdy truck than this other than my personal fav the traxxas slash. watch some vids on youtube from a guy with the username squirrelod if you wanna know everything rc and see this thing in action. hope this helps.
  8. ah, banshee is now broke in, carbs, synched, and new vforce3 petals, runs like a top, all is good.

  9. I got my banshee bone stock except for ohlins suspension and 30mm carbs. i built it all up without any internal engine mods and it has enough power for my 215pd butt. i have white plastics uncut and aftermarket orange glow HID headlights and LED flashers in the middle under the radiator and i think mine looks best with full plastics, although ive seen some cut that look pretty sweet. guess it just depends what you are going for when you build it.
  10. i thought i saw you in there when i got my mag. good job! thats pretty cool being put in a good magazine like that i can imagine.
  11. i have the same carbs as the ones you are selling. could you pm me a link or let me know what you mean by the bowl mod to keep them from running dry? THANKS!
  12. walmart brand super tech atf type f fluid.
  13. just had mine done by F.A.S.T racing on here and it was right at 320 for everything, bore, hone, chamfer, new pro lite wiseco piston set and gaskets, the whole deal.
  14. x2 on the date, make sure its a weekend.
  15. Im down for pretty much any weekend. I hardly ever see banshees there anymore. Mine is in for a rebuild so i should be good to good to go for all of next year if all goes well! see you then! Brad
  16. that sounds like your floats are stuck or need adjusted. try tapping lightly on the side of the bowl with the butt of a screwdriver, and see if that helps. if not its probably your height like stated before.
  17. Q: How long does it take for a man to make dinner? A: As long as it takes for him to get out the belt!
  18. ok me too. ive got to get crackin on my build!
  19. ok will do. i usually just ride by myself so it will be nice to ride with a fellow banshee owner.
  20. aww man wish i could go i work friday, plus when i put the new carb i did a comp test and was at 90 on my only running right cylinder so its all tore down, but ive got two other quads as back up, are you guys gonna be there saturday as well?
  21. i would say that you still have TORS, get new carbs or get rid of them, never had them but ive heard nothing but bad stuff about them
  22. here is a link to my craigslist ad. i am needing some parts for my shee. i would like a heavy duty clutch and springs, modified shift star, front tires, flat track tires, cool head with domes for pump gas, skid plates, and i need a top end rebuild, possibly a bore to .40 over and new piston rings, piston, etc. let me know if you have anything or a shee for trade. http://mattoon.craigslist.org/mcy/2042115416.html
  23. 10-4 im not one to act like a retard doing donuts and wheelies, i just love to ride.
  24. count me in. im gonna try to wiggle in without spark arrestors on the shee and be bringing my honda 250 with a spark arrestor and winch for backup/just in case. looks like a blast!
  25. its got to be a fuel air issue. sounds like you are rich by the sputtering the higher you rev it. look into that first. what other changes were made during the new bore install?
