Proquad101 Posted April 29, 2004 Report Posted April 29, 2004 I just wanted to see who was going to the Malden race on May 8th? Hey D34, tell us alittle about the track. Quote
jinx44 Posted April 30, 2004 Report Posted April 30, 2004 I'll be there . The track is a 3/8 mile clay oval ST with a large TT that in corporates about 75% of the oval then turns on the infield. The straights on the TT are long with 2 right turns (instead of one long right turn like a lot of TT's of this type) with a shorter straight between them, then long straight and back on the oval. D34 and I have designed each of the TT turns to allow a couple of different riding syles and racing lines so passing and racing action should be awesome. It will not be a boring track. We went down a couple of weeks ago to check the track so we know how much water it will need for us. We made a few laps trying all areas of the track. It was super hooked up. We both commented that it was like racing on concrete or asphalt. The track is wide enough to allow a couple of grooves. This is important as you know because it allows different types of riders to pick their line and everyone is not in a line following each other like some other tracks seem to be. We are expecting quite a few racers and it should be some great racing. Quote

Proquad101 Posted May 1, 2004 Author Report Posted May 1, 2004 Don't count on me to win. I haven't rode since the shootout, I'm hoping to just keep up with all you fast guys . Plus I'm riding a bike I've changed everything on so it's like riding a new one. Maybe I can hook a leash on d34 and he can pull me so I can get 2nd place . Quote
PassionRE Posted May 2, 2004 Report Posted May 2, 2004 Yeah, you better plan on riding your ass off Jack, I know of at least 2 really fast motors that are going to be there besides you...is Jeremy going to make it?...Jim Quote
Proquad101 Posted May 2, 2004 Author Report Posted May 2, 2004 Yeah, you better plan on riding your ass off Jack, Is there anyother way to ride? I'm going to ride it like I hate it . I don't know if Jeremy is going or not. Quote

jinx44 Posted May 3, 2004 Report Posted May 3, 2004 I have a great idea, why doesn't everyone just hitch on to the back of my bike? That way no matter what, you'll be behind me . Quote
D34 Posted May 3, 2004 Report Posted May 3, 2004 I have a great idea, why doesn't everyone just hitch on to the back of my bike? That way no matter what, you'll be behind me . i WILL b behind u... then when i pass u, u will b a lap down Quote
Proquad101 Posted May 3, 2004 Author Report Posted May 3, 2004 Damn, R U going to take jinx? I see a little side bet!!!!!! Quote
jinx44 Posted May 3, 2004 Report Posted May 3, 2004 Well Jim, it sounds like I might need to try out these new cylinders this weekend. There is no reason for a grudge race between D34 and I. We both know what the outcome will be. I don't really like other guys buying me a beer anyways. Quote
PassionRE Posted May 3, 2004 Report Posted May 3, 2004 Jinx, if you run THOSE cylinders, I imagine an all out bitch slap coming my way from Jack...Jim Quote
Proquad101 Posted May 3, 2004 Author Report Posted May 3, 2004 What time is the race on the 8th? I need to know what time I need to leave. Quote
