SlowerThanYou Posted April 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 I don't know the exact count on the race vehicles at the track this weekend; somewhere between 600 - 700. This is only a small portion of our pit area. Look there, I think we found the one and only quad. LOL!Justin's best reaction was a .012 & that qualified him #8 in the 19 bike field. Eliminations are tomorrow. We struggled a little with a different clutch set-up, but got it somewhat corrected for the 3rd qualifying pass. We ran our quickest ET so far in the worst air, it hit 90*.

SlowerThanYou Posted April 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Well, Justin went out in the 1st round today, no fault of his. I was chasing my tail with the clutch set-up & we had a bog in the 1st round. We just don't have very many runs with a standard lockup & I'm almost ready to re-install the multi-stage.

sleeper06 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 I have weent as far as having arms made out of diffrent materials to reduce centrifugal force and just add weights if needed , my small motor doesn't need much weight if any on most tracks . Multistage is much better option in adjustability and quickness of adjustment. I got my boys r1 pretty spot on in 3 passes on the street Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to get some standard lock-up tuning back under my belt. Before switching back to the Multi-Stage to show the performance differences.

sleeper06 Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 I found it less time consuming to tune my clutch when I went 300' drags , I could have gotten lucky or had some wheel spin compensating or the bigger RO powered through the clutch better . I would love to do more 300' just nothing around by me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowerThanYou Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 I was going to test the quad tonight, but decided to race it in points tomorrow & maybe Sun. The T&T was $35 & to race is $40. Justin is on vacation & not racing. So, maybe I can take some of his competitor's out this weekend. Plus, get the testing done on the Multi-stage set-up. I will also be racing the Camaro, racing 2 classes should keep me busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowerThanYou Posted June 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Here's a GoPro camera vid on the 535. The other quad is our Secret Weapon ridden by a friend in the left lane.https://www.facebook.com/justin.king.752/videos/976499585717238/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowerThanYou Posted September 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 The quad has been sitting untouched since June 26. That's the longest I ever went without touching it. I could get use to that! Anyway working on the quad today. Angel is going to race it this coming Sat. It will be nice to have it back out at the track again. We will see if he has the balls to run 1/4 mile with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowerThanYou Posted September 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Angel did a great job last night for his 1st time running the 1/4 mile on a quad! He went 10.34 riding old school on his 3rd run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowerThanYou Posted November 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Getting ready to take the quad out for the last time this year on asphalt. We've been talking with a few people about 300' & some hill shooting with it again. The 300' is OK with our single a-arm set-up, but a no go for the hill. The plan right now is to get it ready for 300' BAKO Drags in Feb. Then we want to get another stock frame & have a double a-arm set-up. That way we can have another multi-purpose quad like the old 7mm Cub set-up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
