addaea Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 after years of wanting one I finally got one...picked up a 2003 with a cracked case for really cheap. my plan was to rebuild the motor anyways, so for the price this was a perfect find. Been researching on BHQ for the past months and have a good idea of what I wanna do. My plan is to make it into an asphalt dragger. I plan to build it over the course of the winter and hopefully hit the pavement next spring. For this inital build I'm thinking of going with Wildcard and building a 4mil drag engine, nothing too spectacular but enough to get going and learn the quad. Anyone have experince with Wildcard? They seemed really helpful and responded great to all my emails and very knowledgeable. Herr Juggs was also great, but I already know they have a good rep on here. I can't wait to start ripping her apart this week...haven't had a project "vehicle" to mess around with in years, should be fun :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madjimmax Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 Welcome to the wonderful life of the banshee world. It's a fun but expensive world. Good luck with the rebuild post pics along the way I'm sure everyone will agree. So let the spending begin!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

addaea Posted August 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 I just noticed that your from MD where about in MD are you from. I'm in Upper Marlboro, MD....I see you're in Glen Burnie right down the way. yeah, searching the forums has definently helped, I definently have a game plan for the quad suspension/chasis and engine wise. I was up many nights in the HQ archives researching. I've been lurking since May, when I had my motorycle accident(broke my arm) and decided to give "2 wheels" a break and try my hand at 4 wheels, LOL :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
