That is badass.

[///M5 2,833]

Rode yesterday at one trail, rained, lots of traction. You could lean it, gas it, it'd stick. If you really wanted to break traction and slide, just bang on the throttle a bit more.

Rode today at a different place, no rain. Sliding everywhere. Sliding into bermed turns was a hoot, but flat - off camber turns was sketchy. Then I noticed my rear tire was so worn it had no nubs left.

You need more power.

I have a monster track for the trail and can still break it loose a lot. Will pull "wheelies" at 40mph without having a clutch to dump as well. Power to weight is the fun.

Oh, and I have mine setup to not pull wheelies as I like to have my skis on the ground when I need to turn. No apehanging to show off here, but modulating the front to bang the bumps you bet.

250cc two stroke is plenty of power for everything I do. Only time I'm wot is for a few straight-aways throughout the trails, maybe twenty seconds max.

You wouldn't want to hold my sled WOT for 20 seconds unless you had A LOT of space. That being said I peg the flipper as much as possible, well at least early in the day, later on you get a little softer on things.

For me, open space is a quarter mile run. I believe I top out around 65 70, but really all the fun is acceleration, and turns.

Same here. I can choose to find more wide open but that isn't normal. Instead of single track though we ride on trails that are usually between 6-10' wide with lots of tight corners and tree's on both sides. Extremely similar only everything happens quicker and more safely on a snowmobile.

Yep yep. No cactus is a plus, too. Even though cactus is more forgiving then a tree.

Weather is perfect here, but stuff keeps getting in the way.

Get new wheel studs?

Yes I did. What a pita that was. Cost me $80 too.

In the 30-40's here still. I am in the stage of "anxious to start installing" which will eventually lead to "damn I am still not done with this". Lol

Perfect glassin' temps

I bought a large box and made a hot box so I could glass in the winter. Put a little heater in it and monitered the temp.. kept it around 70-80 degrees

Uh not really.

Hot boxes can help / work, but then I'd be worried about warping.

Damn I yawned and bit under my tounge and it freaken hurts!

[Duran 387]

I use a hot box at work, to accelerate curing. That is for composite aerospace parts.

The box or it's temp will have no bearing on warping. That's all in the resin/MEK mix and how quickly the endothermic reaction occurs.

Idea for new update. . .

When a new page loads a .swf of a hot chick flashing her big titties and ass is needed.

I'd rather break a bone than be stabbed by needles

I thought about using a heat lamp but I'll just wait a couple more weeks.

I thought a UV light accelerated resin curing not temperature. Proper temperature is just another component in the mix.

[ssh 924]

Depends on how many needles, but if it's a lot, I pretty much agree.

Few weeks ago I had a highspeed slide out right into a big cholla. Everything went slow, I thought to myself: "Oh shit, I'm going to be covered in this shit." I took it out with my shoulder, and slide for twenty feet.

Got up, had a few pieces stuck to my wrist and shoulder. Took five minutes to get off. I got lucky.

Depends on what you're using. When I used bondo I noticed it cured much more quickly under light even when it was cold out. Resin on the otherhand no matter how much light it got it would never cure if temps were low.

Resin is a chemical reaction... low temps = no reaction.
