hey everyone im new to this forum and whole pitbike scene.
i just bought a 140cc dhz oilcooled ive been involved with big bikes since i was 5. i should be there to see what i need to run motard on the pitbike. is this like a club or anything or do they just do practice days.

thanks

 

[ducar.r.spec]

sorry im outta gota work

 

[MasterSpoon]

have been told they do practice every Saturday and racing every Sunday. Not sure if they are setup like a club or part of a greater thing but track time is track time.......

btw who is bringing a camera?
I wanna try do some backing it in and need some video to prove that I did it or that I crashed....

Not set up as a club, anyone can come along, pay their $20 and ride for the entire session. As long as all the riders are going in the same direction we can choose, unlike the pocket bikes who just alternate directions each week. I like anti-clockwise marginally more than clockwise. I'll have my digital SLR for pictures and a Sony handycam for any trackside footage and a Kodak digital camera for onboard/helmet footage. I'm only one man though.

1 sleep to go people, well i suppose that is if you can still manage to sleep....

[no_crf50_here]

dude with road tyres you'd go off!

 

[akim21]

haha thanks man

 

[no_crf50_here]

I'm the one on the pink bike *well pink sticker kit
Master Spoon is the other person in shot
Graham was on his MotoVert RX

 

[$heepy]

lol that would have been interesting ridin around on dirt tires

 

[no_crf50_here]

he was only a little off the pace thru corners, but coming out he was on! It was a huge effort

 

[akim21]

it was my first time on the track too haha

it was awesome, im thinking about getting road tires and coming out to the track more often

 

[akim21]

this is my bike

rode it with dirt tyres and it was pretty stable, shows that u dont need road tyres to ride at the motard track haha

so come down to the track whenever you can, you will love it trust me

 

[graham]

was hell fun didn't go to hard as was only wearing a jumper and im told the black stuff is not very forgiving ask spoon man ........

will be there first saturday they reopen..

 

[MasterSpoon]

yeah that black stuff hurts......
hitting it hard at top speed doesn't help to much either
to make it worse it was right at the end, like was told they were doing last lap flag next lap and that was the last session........
just shows that the right gear is priceless, very slightly bruised, bashed and grazed but would hate to think what I would be like had i not been wearing all the right kit.
