mineurbiz Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 It was not crowded at all, but it was very cold and hopefully there is a better turn out this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metalalien Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 No it's not ready for the races yet. For it's weight it needs another 50% more power to be really fast, that's completely do-able though. Plus I need a longer swingarm or wheelie bar to get ANY kind of launch. The problem being it's overbore and a power added... which means I have to run guys like the turbo raptor mentioned above....LOL. 58mph up banshee hill doesn't cut it. BUT I'll be on the test and tune hill giving the rest of the bikes a hard time. Oh I found a problem this weekend... it was pretty hot, the heat killed my power big time.. non intercooled boost and hot air don't go together.... At night when the temp dropped sharply all my power came back but during the day I lost 6mph up the hill!!! I'm going to instal a methanol injection cooling system on the manifold so it will hold it's power udring the warmer days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metalalien Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 (edited) Alien, Are you going to put your plastics back on, or stay with the metal? Everyone seems to like it naked, but I will probably put them back on after this next weekend... the dune season being bascily over around here... I'll be going to apex more often.
