Master of Faster Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 We're putting on a little drag racing in our back yard this coming saturday, may 17th. No lights, no timers, just some guys out to have some fun. Thought I might throw this up for any HQer's that are in the area that might be interested. We're in Auburn, MI (not Auburn Hills!), its directly between Bay City and Midland. If you're interested just shoot me a pm and I'll fill ya in on details. Starting line, freshly groomed, track is 480' long. If ya run any farther shutdown becomes an issue. Quote
Bill Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 Man I went to Western high,corn chuckers!!! Id love to be there but my motor aint finished! Quote
Master of Faster Posted May 13, 2008 Author Report Posted May 13, 2008 Ahh yes, I graduated from Western. That's too bad your motor isn't done. I'm actually waiting for my override back from WCR right now, should have been here awhile ago, but he says he shipped it last week so it better get here in time. It will suck to not have my own quad ready to run on this track I've been working on, lol. Quote
dajogejr Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 Looks like sand, is that true? Why not run 300 ft. and give extra shut down room... Damn...I would love to come out, I promised my girl we'd demo and redo her bathroom this weekend.... How often do you do this?? Quote
shanYE west Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 I'm just a lil north of you. I'm from Standish. I'd love to go but.. my banshee is still MTA (missing the action) until I get my rad back... wouldn't mind making the next one if you get somthing together. Quote
Master of Faster Posted May 13, 2008 Author Report Posted May 13, 2008 It's a sandy start but it quickly goes to hardpack dirt, deffinitely would tear paddles up so we mostly run razr's, karlys, turf tamers, that sort of stuff. We do mark the 300' point, its just that most of the guys run trailable quads with taller gearing and like to run em out a ways to see who's got what. Plus there are alot of Banshee/450 matchups so its advantageous to strech the race out a bit, lol. Next time I will post up a little more ahead of time and maybe you guys will be able to make it out.

Dinner Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 I think your idea is a great one! I don't live in Michigan so I won't be attending,lol But I like how you are inviting the public to come and run what they have. I have been thinking about this that last year myself, clearing an area on my property and tell people to come on out on a saturday or something. I like it Quote

Gotcha... No offense, pointless for me to bring my bike out...however, I'd like to get my buddies 450 out there to have some fun!! Quote
WALLACE84 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 I would for sure come out a different time. I going to pick up another Rm250 this weekend in detroit. Bill and I are from Midland Quote
shanYE west Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 Dan your banshee build done yet? whats going on there?? Quote
shanYE west Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 Gotcha...No offense, pointless for me to bring my bike out...however, I'd like to get my buddies 450 out there to have some fun!! Let me know dave! I'll go and sport a 4 stroke with ya!! Quote
dajogejr Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 I'd love to, but got plans for this weekend....with the wifey... Quote
Master of Faster Posted May 13, 2008 Author Report Posted May 13, 2008 Dave, no offense taken, there wouldn't be anything here that I know of for you to race with your banshee. My bike is a trail ported 4-mil, stock swinger, ect. and is one of the front runners, its just a bunch of guys with mild trail quads out having some fun, little cookout and a fire and ya can't go wrong.

dajogejr Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 Hell doug, they'd all whip my arse...unless I came out with chisel pick tires, etc... I would NEVER hook up on that track..LOL... Nevertheless...it sounds like fun. Let me and Shayne know next time you're gonna do it. I'd love to come out and have some good old fun racing trail bikes and campfire racin!!!! Quote
