    i think he's talking about getting a group to go to prairie city.

    We should get a big enough crew out there to get a race going around the track.

    A lot of it is big enough to make passes on.

    It's patent law, so we won't be any help. Yeah test runs would be awesome though.

    Well you best get some skids on the front of that whale if you wanna put your money where your mouth is. This is a short course track w/ a lot of kickers that'll send you right back to the dealer for a "warrantied" radiator.

    Yeah I was talking about the ranger.
    I had the Giant shackles for a while...till I bent one of them. Their design kinda sucks. I'd suggest you add some extra material on the outside of them to keep that long section of plate from the pivot to the hanger from bending like mine.

    all are welcome to come and beat on their junk:D. My garage is 5 minutes from the track so if anybody brakes we can fix what we can in my garage if we can get it there.
    Now we just need to set a weekend?

    Wow, prairie city looks a lot different then it did when I would go there on my dirt bike. Now that I sold it to fund truck stuff, looks like I'll be taking the tacoma there instead :D Is long travel necessary to hit a jump like that? If I were to hit that at about the same speed you guys were going on King extended travel coilovers and rear shocks, would I be pushing it too hard?
