  1. totally agree with this. Outside car looks good. interior looks like some kid with a CRX slapped the stuff in. The engine looks like something i'd see at Pacemaker's in a rusted out GTO. Professionaly done my ass.
  2. BENTO FTW!! i've been goin there with some of the older guys i hang out with on campus. we usually show up around 10 and stay til close. drinks are cheap and it's always a great time. Sake Bombs FTW. chris, how long you been tending there? The guys i go with are from the Frat i'm pledging and they've been goin there for a long time. Eric Moller just graduated and was a HUGE Bento guy.
  3. dont forget, most of the racing here is done from the roll. and my money is that the viper is def. a roll racer. even if it's not, i've seen MANY vipers run mid to low nines in STREET trim.
  4. that car would be an investment. 35th anniv. i'd buy it and take it to shows,cruises,etc. and keep it forever. 30 years down the road 150k+

    new bike

    '05 YZ250f with some toys. this is Andrew Hyder's AMA Pro supermoto/motocross bike from last season. his new '06 is pictured as well in full supermoto trim. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/Picture052.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/Picture055.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/Picture058.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/owndjoo/Picture050.jpg
  7. 4-strokes are the way to go, honestly. but if you want to save money, you can def. get the 2-strokes for cheap now.
  8. i ran beans,broken spokes, and western reserve up in that there district 12, but mainly ran down in district 11 with all the fast guys. not to mention the fair series as well. Sunset Ramblers in Galion was a great track and fun to race there, not a whole lot of talent but fun.
  9. i remember hill. he looks soo much like carmichael it isn't funny. I remember watching him at beans road try to quad into the rythm section for the first time. crazy stuff.
  10. that was the funniest thing though. i had some nasty wrecks on the big stuff, usually a cnoncussioin was the worst thing i got. and when i broke my left arm, it was goin into turn one and a kid slammed into my side and his handlebar hit my arm and snapped both bones clean. I fell over, got up, picked up the bike and tried to pull in the clutch to kick it and realized my arm hurt. the EMT said i prolly just sprained it, eventhough there was a huge bulge in the middle of my arm....
  11. i was last racing in 2000. i raced for F&S Suzuki that year as well. I know that if i stuck with it i'd be holding a pro license right now. who knows, now that i'm gettin back into it, and my riding buddy is pro, i might be able to get back into the groove and atleast get up to the A class. I mean i ran top 10 in 125b on my rm80 that year the couple times i rode in it. nothing better than layin it flat on an 80 over a triple while the guy behind you on the 125 only doubles and you leave him in the dust.
  12. shit man, we mite of raced together. i met him back when he was on 80's and have hung out with him ever since. Not real sure about the supermoto thing. He had his Pro license from MX and transferred it to supermoto.
  13. Andrew Hyder, he's a very good friend of mine. He already has an '06 yz250f LE in the lovely hurricane yellow.
  14. look up Racetech suspension. I know plenty of people including myself who have it. very good stuff.
  15. yea, i used to ride with burkhart,ames,sellards,gracyck,bowers,willard,browning, whitcrafts, etc. I always thought they were fast, now i'm watching tv and see many of them either on Arenacross or qualifying for the Supercross series. Supermoto is catching on, there's a track in circleville. My good buddy that i'm buyin the bike from has his pro license and barely missed the pro supermoto event at nashville last year. missed by .04 of a second with a stock motor.
  16. Well, after 5 LONG years since i last raced motocross, i'm gettin back into it. I should hopefully be picking up a '05 YZ250F from a buddy of mine who is an AMA Pro. Bike was used last year for the AMA Pro Supermoto series. I plan on ridin dirt,supermoto, motarding at the roadcourses and eventually dual sportin it on the street. Yes, i'm still roadracing, but i need something to train with and keep me busy when i'm not racing one of my 9 rounds. Plus winter is just way to boring for me. Who else rides?
  17. SV1000s is nice. pretty much the same as the 650 but with just over 100hp. beter suspension and steering damper stock. would be great for what you want.
  18. or if you want, my buddy has an Ebay store and is opening up a real store soon as well. It's called ATV Unlimited and he can get anything.
  19. all alcohols need more fuel than regular gas. They burn cleaner and make more power. pure Methanol is around 2.50/gal last i checked. Also if you store it, you've gotta keep it up off the ground and away from water.
  20. go with a suomy helmet!! although they are pretty $$$ haha, gotta put a plug in there for the ol' sponsor. But yea, hit up the pony and then order online.
  21. it'll prolly just sit in his living room.....
  22. http://www.sportbiketracktime.com it's like $350 for the weekend or so. 185 for one day i think. Putnam is a smaller more technical track. not real highspeed.
  23. i'd say this 1.sv650 2.ninja ex500 3.ninja ex250 ninja, get a lap timer and see where you are to the racers. i just went to the WERA school last fall and ended up bein faster than the people in my class on fully built 600's on my stock SV. i'm doin a trackday at putnam in april before the first race. that school last year was my only time on a roadcourse.
  24. well, if they dont say that the numbers were caculated, then how am i supposed to know that?? Sorry that if someone tells me they ran a number that i'm not thinking about calculations and such. i guess that means my talon is an 11 second car then....
