sheesh, can't get a break from the rain............. race cancelled for today, Street Diesel Performance Show & Go.(EXP) -RESCHEDULED TO 10/10

hope we get a bit of luck by then.


as for the jets , not sure how they would work on a fuel injected ride, sounds like the vdi copperhead is the programmer of choice for these, and they aint cheap.

That seems like an event that will never happen... Wait till 10/10 rolls around, I say a freak snow storm cancels it this time

'Nother good day on the quads today BUT, had a minor incident, first bad event with the 450, hill climb went bad and it did an end over end tumble into a tree with me scurrying from below Might be on video, waiting to see just what was gotten, my cousin also duffed his on another hill. Minor damage though, realigned the rear grab bar, added a stress mark in the rear plastics and an adjustment on the front bumper. the important thing is I kept at it and tamed that dammed hill before moving on

in other words, BUMP whats goin on fellas

yes it was another perfect day for ridin, and not a bad night to grab a burger at the chatterbox on the way home either. just got in, lil bit o traffic from the tourists, dropped quad off at folks and saw my niece and nephew for a bit. My good priced fuel station finally upped their price, to 2.45 for now, o well, filled 3 times at 2.37 so I got some good out of it. Big weekend coming up, what are folks up to ?

Hey guys sorry been mia. I have been going crazy getting ready for my closing today. so know i am halfway there. House is officially sold.

Need some new tires for the truck, i might stay with theBFG AT since i have had good luck with them or might try something different maybe not as aggressive and suggestions?

So that is what i am up to and who else is out there

I though of mentioning those Mike, but I think Phil might be running 16's on his truck.

Just saw the vid of myself toppling, and I gotta say it was more intersting in person. have to convert the file type or some crap in order to post it though

Nothing new here really. Going up to PA Wednesday until Monday morning for a mini-vacation. Already filled the quad up and got my refreshments/snacks for the trip. Starting school back up next week, didn't make this round for police officer. They are hiring again next year so I hope to make that cut.

Truck runs great with the new trans, has about 3k on it now. **** rock cracked my windshield today, guy coming to the house tomorrow to repair it. Thats really it, I lead such an exciting life.

Actually they are in the shed since last Wednesday, and I am trying to burn off the old STT's while I still have nice weather to do it.

Mike you need twins for better breathing also a side efffect would be more power



So guys things calmed down the closing went fine no hassle at all. had a couple of buddies help me and could not have done it alone. was niced kept loading everyones truck and telling thme went to go. We have to much crap but would not know were to start to get rid of it. Any how have some time to hang if anyones doing anything.

Remember guys try to keep some dates open for the SEEFOOD FEST in CT and FAWL BRAWL in which i am going to try to attend both.

HO brian said he was going to try to make it out this year so we will see waht happens, and i am already dragging my buddy with the 09 6.7 along.


See ya later
