Canadarider Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 The 00 banshee in my sig is what I run in the CMA pro open class. I got alot of money in it. it takes alot of money to be up front. I run the CMA,EOMDA and flat track races around me . I race pretty much every weekend it takes some good money to keep up too, hoosier tires and that dont last long on clay, I pay 150$ a tire ,race gas ect it take money to do this sport at the levle me an tt_bansheerida do. Pete what do u say you spend a weekend to do a race? I spend around 600$ weekend if nothing happens to the bike. Your going to need A-arms. shocks, sway bar, tires and rims, nerf bars, a motor to keep up to must 4 pokes , kill switch, swing a-arm, all the right riding gear and so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadarider Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I get my off the hoosier site and shipping to it come to 150$ a tire with shipping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POORBOY350 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I get my off the hoosier site and shipping to it come to 150$ a tire with shipping i bet they go pretty fast to racing. but shit man any kind of riding you do especially racing is expensive. but i love flat track to and if this track around here would let some quads run id be all in it man. but basically you need a low center of gravity definately lower and wider i'd think. and plenty of power.

tt_bansheerida Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 umm with gas for the truck and a 3 hour trip to the track then gas for the bike im prolly around a grand or so a weekend BUT i put all my gas under are busnies (tax return) im paing areound 110 115 for armerica racers if ur gunna build a banshee build it for large track like 1/2 miles because u can almost run stock suspension but drop a bad ass motor and still run near the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
