I have come to the conclusion of not racing anyone for the new year. I'm just gonna run ride my bike up and down the street and give advice like normal.
The reason for the change is all this local BS crap talking everyone does. BUT hardly anyone ever races. You have to basically "BEG" guys to race there own bike. OR there bike is ready, or could be ready to race, but they just don't feel like bringing it. "Your" coming to a minibike drag racing spot, but you left your bike at home, and now your threatening another guy that if he "puts his money up" you would then drive home, pick you bike up, and bring it back to race. What the H**L is that???
Lately the video has been pretty poor. The best racing happens at night time.
WHY????
Because we first have to argue for 2-3 hours until the sun goes down. Maybe smoke a little, drink a little, basically get are bodies warmed up first before warming up are bike.
Then the race, may, or may not happen after first testing and tuning the bike. Because the bike now has broke something, or needs something that has been left at home.
Now, the last thing I'm venting off my chest and I have said it many, many times to the local racers. The guys with stock bikes, or even modified small engine bikes seem to race basically All Day Long. While the guys with the "BIG" motors/bikes are mainly for show. They come once a month, take them out there vehicle, everyone take pictures and ooh and ahh, then they may, or may not take it for a test ride. If they do, the motor gets shut off, and the bike is then loaded back into there vehicle. Never a race, unless someone accidentally is out there on the street at the same time as them.
These "BIG" bikes are costing from $4000-$7000, so I'm starting to think it's more about how nice your bikes looks, or who can spend the most money on the most power??? It's now a big local event when someone is bringing one of these monsters. It's not about racing any more.
Check out this video out for the guys that are not here locally to see how it is in person.

that would get very old very fast. it looks like you guys (the 1's that want to race) need to find a new place to race and dont let all the other (non racers) know where it is (good luck with that:doah: less BSing, more racing:thumbsup:
