Anybody going that weekend? Ill be staying in the last camp to the north in the reserved spots behind the store. Last ride was great I put my alky carbs on and tried to tune them Monday befor the ride and melted my 4mil cubs. Over-nighted a new set and got her tuned way fat and was ready to roll Thursday night. Was kind of worried because I put it together so fast but it was running well enough to outrun everthing on the sand except a 10mill 535 cheetah. I had just spent abunch of $$ and was afraid to even try the nitros in fear of having to buy another set of cubs. But It will be tuned for the nitros for memorial weekend and hope to see Mr 10 mil again? I had no trouble with the 10mil twister motor that was there. So if anybody goes to bigger jugs on there banshee I wood stay away from the twister motors ;D

Well plans are changing, and I might go riding at Beaver that weekend. Just like always, the guys I ride with change their plans 100 times and cant promise anything, so Im not going to fool with it and just do whatever I feel like doing.
Waynoka will be way to packed with people for my liking, but I might do a little stint at Beaver.

You guys might want to ride waynoka. Im hearing there will be a 750 horse triple 500 at jims drag strip that weekend? Supposed to be some of the world fastest there. Ill try to find out 100% if this is going to sway anyones plans?

Jim may have the world record?? But this quad is 750 horse 2-stroke and they are looking for under the 3 sec mark. It was in Louisiana but Im not sure how it did? We are running high fours on the dirt.(300 feet) I wont even be in the same ballpark as theese guys till next year. You just cant hook up like on sand. Anyhow there will be some very fast quads there.

What kind of engine is it? Do they have different classes when it comes to those super drag bikes?

Jim does not currently hold the world record. Its 3.1 and some change, and beleave it or not its a lay down TRIKE. The 750 horse quad came to Louisiana in peices and they couldnt get it tuned in? But it will be on Jims drag strip memorial weekend. Im getting this info from Calvin (cheehta desighner and maker) Im pretty good friends with his quad Jockey. He said Jim did have the fastest 350 in the world until the Louisiana drags.

I should be around 120-130 with the NOS. I pretty confident saying that, but it could be a bit more. Right now its only a 421cc motor but there arent but a few more mods I can put on? turbo fuel injection etc, but the big races are set up by cc limits and my 4 mil would be classed with all the 10mils so I may have to at least go to a 10mil to compete. Im still thinking on it? Ill e-mail some pics to you.
