tall_tracy Posted August 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 8 minutes ago, what said: Jacob would like to thank his sponsor, Kenda Tires. Sticky where it matters, slippery where it counts. Kenda Tires. But yes, a 2-stroke 85 was running the kenda race compound tires and they seemed sticky as hell. If they do end up making some 110/16's I will make the switch. Someone said that was a 65, not an 85 - does anyone know for sure what it was? I have to go back to see if I have any photos of it, it was one of my favorites. That little bike was wicked fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to go back to see if I have any photos of it, it was one of my favorites. That little bike was wicked fast. It was a 65, I talked to my newest sponsor, Kenda Tires, about the bike and confirmed motor size. Don't remember the make. As far as bike rental, I'll gladly let anyone here race/crash my bike as much as they want for free if you come down for a race or practice day. It's so much fun. First one's free. Also, I'm happy with my '99XR for what it is, cheap and reliable, but the newer CRFs are faster probably because the motors are not as abused as the older ones. Parts are totally interchangeable from '87 or so on. Edited August 7, 2018 by jacobhawkins 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adkins and PIRC are the two closest to CLE... the other tracks are Circleville and G&J. PIRC is great but the most expensive cause they charge an arm and a leg to rent the kart track. Unfortunately the last 4 races of the season are only G&J and CRP Edited August 8, 2018 by DerekClouser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacobhawkins Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Kids under 12 race free and have their own ~50cc class. MX gear is fine for them. Obviously leathers are best, but if the kid isn't running a hot pace, nobody cares. Hell, there's a kid who raced in snow pants and boots on a bike with knobbies. It's all about the fun.

It's one reason I love it so much, make fun of your buddies in the pits and on track and laugh about it all night. The shot @tall_tracy got of me on the ground with a tipped over xr? I fell over coming into the pits after the last practice Saturday afternoon. Like a dumbass.
