Indubitably Posted December 18, 2003 Report Posted December 18, 2003 When are we going to put together a BansheeHQ Baja 1000 team and make the Banshee king of the desert again ?? That would be so awesome, I would do it. I wonder if anyone else would take part in it. I could probably get some sponsorships from companies if anyone is interested. But it can only happen if Meat takes part in it because it was his idea. Quote
Blue Duece Posted December 18, 2003 Report Posted December 18, 2003 i got a fairly decent course we can pratice on Quote
ledofthezep Posted December 18, 2003 Report Posted December 18, 2003 Fly me out there & I'm on it! Quote
Wassup350 Posted December 18, 2003 Report Posted December 18, 2003 I hope to go down there one year when i get outta college. Quote
banshee2sick Posted December 19, 2003 Report Posted December 19, 2003 I've been tossing the idea around for a year or two now...if you guys get a bansheehq team together id go Quote
evil Posted December 19, 2003 Report Posted December 19, 2003 hell yeah, id ride for the team and have a few chase trucks for the support anyone want to give me a few banshees !!!!! Quote
Indubitably Posted December 19, 2003 Report Posted December 19, 2003 How could we make a Banshee that would be race ready though, would we take donated parts from certain "team members" to get the bike up to par as far as racing is concerned. I could go for something like that I can't really think of any other way of doing it. Does anyone else habe any ideas? Quote
Blue Duece Posted December 19, 2003 Report Posted December 19, 2003 we could get keith sundall to build us a frame stick my motor and rear shock with a elka arm on it, come up with some real long travel front shocks,stick a scotts stabilizer on it, put Evil up in the pilots seat and give him a push.....only prob is we need two bikes and 2 riders, none of us can cover that much ground 24/7 solo.......its an endurance run so it takes plenty of pratice the terrain kicks your ass......im not sure the ocassional ride would gear us up for it, sometimes ill ride everyday then go try to do a 10 mile run full on the pipe and its like i played in the super bowl by myself, just really kicks my ass..we need a yungster with a trophy set of nuts, the slower guy could releave him.....a fast shee in the open desert could win though.....but to even place is a victory Quote
Indubitably Posted December 19, 2003 Report Posted December 19, 2003 Fro could do it hes a youngin I'll supply a radiator i got the PWR one and no offense but screw Sundahl see if Gary (AZSandrat) would be interested maybe we could get a cash pool goin too. Gary builds some freakin awesome shit. Lets keep this in the HQ. Also we can try another race to see if we wanna do the 1000 or just see what were capable of. Maybe like Vegas to Reno or somethin, try somethin in the states. Theres more money in BITD than Score anyways. If we have a good showing in a small BITD race then lets race Baja for bragging rights, to show everyone else that Banshee's will kick almost any other quad in the teeth. Damn I need to settle down a bit. Quote
