dco3100 Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 Tyler, maybe i missed it, what RO are your 14's that makes a big difference. Knowing your setup and knowing ls sand i would go with a 78-80 RO and a 14-16 extreme on a 14 arm and htfo lol. I like to over tire and ride the thing. If you only got a 72 RO tire your going to need some serious gearing, which it sounds like you have, and i would go with the 12 over. Funny that a guy of this statute has a similar opinion that I do, considering the 16 extremes I suggested. And again, what do I know... Im done with the girly online bickering, i'd be more than happy to meet up with you and/or your tag-teaming buds at the track (take it anyway you'd lk). Im always at the big events in and around LA, especially the PlanetSand ones. Thinking about making it to the planetsand shootout in Kentucky as well, hope to see you Tyler shoot me a pm with the info on that brace you said you have, im interested.

When did I ever say that they did. Doesn't matter if the classes don't revolve around a 2stroke oem chassis. Already talked with charlie and its being considered as a track record, once it gets done at HIS track. And one more time, what do I know... You'd think with all them yrs experience.. you'd have more knowlege.. This is last year. http://bansheehq.com...=1entry989363 http://bansheehq.com...1entry1024461 This one is my fav. http://bansheehq.com...1entry1032683 lol I'm done..

shanYE west Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 And in the name of Tyler, can we call this highjack done, and get back to the point?? Of course w/o the smart ass comments lk "Did you not read the op" That wasn't a smart ass comment.. It was a question. Since tyler first post clearly stated "LS" If you never heard of little sahara thats not my fault. I'm not from that part of the country either. Hell.. your closer then I am! Anyone that rides dunes.. Knows about Little sahara.. I'll stick to my statement "no way in hell i'd run 16 extremes in the dunes" as I was refering to my dunes. as I stated in my first post.. I've never been to LS so I dont know how the sand is. I've seen videos and it looks very similar to our dunes here. Face it.. you thought you were better then me cause you thought I had a 421.. So you made your smart ass comment about me not having anywhere near the power and you got called out it. You dont know what your talking about and only have 5 months worth of experience with a bigger motor to base your opinions on. I've been through numerous tire combo's on my 14 with everything from 72ro 14 extremes to 84ro 16 stg rippers. On the tracks and dunes. I base my opinions off my experience not by what people tell me or what I think would work. and back to your .03 gain from the tire swap.. I still dont think you need more tire. I bet with a gear change you could have gained .03 when people say big gains under 4 sec.. they're talking .1's and there is a whole lot more that I'm not going into detail about. .03 could have been anything from track coindtions changing to the sun playing hell on your tire pressure. Hell.. you might have ran down the track slightly straigter then the previous pass. Point is.. a .03 gain thats not conistant.. dont mean anything. If you wouldn't have said "what do you know".. we wouldn't be here right now.. Could have just said " I didn't know what LS was.." Like I said previously.. dont read into things more then they are. It is what it is. Now we can get back to the thread.. even though I think tyler got the information he wanted early on. I'm good for one good showdown a year.. I think I just spent it on this one.

I have plenty of gearing so I am not worried about that. You're way more experienced at LS than I am. So you think I should go with a +12 with these tires and just hold the fuck on?

Ill do this in order, of course as the b.s. was inserted... I heard of little sahara a couple times, never been there or even discussed it for that matter, thats why I ASKED, like you do when you're unsure of things. Its what ppl do. You tried to make it sound like i have no clue by stating you would NO WAY IN HELL run those paddles, but in the end a big-name builder "in some way" agreed with my opinion. Can we say backfire?? And i actually think you're the one thats mad, b/c it only took me the "5 months you're claiming it took me to run a faster time than you ever would. My apologies I did try numerous gearing with both sets of paddles, as you're assuming i didn't. And my times were very consistant on that note. And we're back to the thread...
