BansheeBrian Posted September 11, 2004 Report Posted September 11, 2004 In Greenfield, Mass. there will be a hillclimb event. Reg. is at 9:00-9:30. You can use anything in your arsenal to get the fastest time in your class.You have to sign up with the AMA and 10.00 to climb.You'll see me with the white banshee. Quad open class(banshees,zillas) starts around noon after the bikes.You must have a killswitch,boots higher than youre ankle and helmet. Quote
banshee370 Posted September 11, 2004 Report Posted September 11, 2004 You couldnt have posted this A DAY EARLIER???? UGH! Are they having anymore this year? I will NOT do Monson hill climb but I would consider Greenfield. I could have picked up fuel yesterday and been there IF I KNEW in advance! Either way... How did ya do? It was a nice day for it!

United Pot Smoker Posted September 12, 2004 Report Posted September 12, 2004 was that today? shit i would have went over to watch it even though i cant be in it. Quote
Banchetta Posted September 12, 2004 Report Posted September 12, 2004 I would have went if I knew also.....Damn!!!! Get any pics? Walter are you going to sandfest? Quote
banshee370 Posted September 12, 2004 Report Posted September 12, 2004 I would have went if I knew also.....Damn!!!! Get any pics? Walter are you going to sandfest? I just realized that he posted this last night and not yesterday morning.... So that means it would be TODAY! UGH~ All I needed is a few gallons of race fuel.... Why do I always find out about this when its too late. Jason: No I wont be able to attend sandfest..... I would LOVE too but my schedule is just AFU right now Make sure you get plenty of pics!! Quote
BansheeBrian Posted September 14, 2004 Author Report Posted September 14, 2004 Damn ,I knew I should have posted this earlier.It would have been great to have some riders from the HQ there. Monson is next weekend. It was a zilla and shee show at Greenfield. If you guys are bored next Sunday head to Monson. Monson is the last climb of the circuit for the year and even if you don't climb watching is almost as great! Quote

locogato11283 Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 bansheebrian, how did you do? you get your jetting fixed any? Quote
BansheeBrian Posted September 14, 2004 Author Report Posted September 14, 2004 Not as good as i wanted to do,lets say that. This stock swingarm thing isn't cuttin' it.I ran against quads with $15,000-20,000 dumped into them.These dudes have been in the circuit for years and years and know the climbs like the back of their hands.I ran against all the old school climbers.There were no newbies like myself there and I felt intimidated and weak. They were up my ass when I first showed up and wanted to pry engine info out of me. I guess that initiation. I plan on giving them hell at Monson! Some of the riders told me I was smokin like crazy when I first shot off the line but cleaned up a little when i was on the pipe.Still didn't feel right though. Quote
BansheeRider576 Posted September 14, 2004 Report Posted September 14, 2004 hey man.... i live in monson... got a 2000 banshee myself been goin to the climbs for along time now hope to see you there this weekend... good luck! Quote

jeepman137 Posted September 15, 2004 Report Posted September 15, 2004 hmmmm, i live in East Longmeadow, maybe we should have a bunch of people from the HQ show up, like a group thing... i would probably go, if its at monson, its this weekend right? i probably wouldnt be in it because i am a beginner ATVer, but i would go to watch... Quote
jeepman137 Posted September 15, 2004 Report Posted September 15, 2004 just wondering what days the hillclimb at monson is, because i will most likely show up... Quote
BansheeBrian Posted September 15, 2004 Author Report Posted September 15, 2004 It's this Sunday. I'm not big on riding in the frickin' rain though. Theres nothing I'd like better than to get a mess of HQ'ers together for a few hillclimb events.That would kick ass. Quote
