Mark, was you there this last Saturday? I seen a white YFZ450 with a Mad Racing shirt on, was that your 470 running?
Sam, I didnt see you all weekend, I was there all day Saturday and my buddies were dragging the far strip for us. Some Fast bikes (besides mine) out there.
Dragraptor727, was that you out there around noon time(Sunday)?

H3ll Yeah it was bumpy, I almost launched off my bike going thru them whoops! I believe I raced you a couple of times then gave my bike to a better whoop rider than me and did pretty good. It was about noon time. Take a look at my pics in my page and you will see my bike. Yes that Red and white Sparks bike is not a 727, its a 740 and yes they got that thing running good!!

Well I dont know if it was Thunders but there was a White YFZ450 out there with a Madracing Shirt on that I raced a few times and came out ahead. That Sparks bike was really damn fast!! He got me by at least 6 bike lengths and I was running pretty good for starting out in first gear. I think it would be a good race between you Mario and Tony for sure!!!!
Posted by: RaptorOwner
I was wondering why I got him that easy.... hehehe Last I remember he was flipping fast!!! Did Thunder Race Tony's Raptor? The sparks bike that pretty crazy fast!!!??

From what I hear I have a target on my back since I couldnt make it to ds days, But I am ready for all commers at Dumont. I want to get mopped up so I can go into my motor and freshen her up along with getting her tranny overidden. Im going on 1 year with same rings.
Mark, if your up give me a ring.
I would love to, but my motor is coming out this week and getting more goodies put inside.... hehehehe, I may have a Piston, Jug and sparks cam for sale on ebay soon. I just got this setup a few months ago and am going to go BIGGER NOW. I am on a mission to at least hang with the top 3 4 strokes.... Maybe good enough for 4 Stroke wars if I can find me a real good pilot Just not that good on whoops yet to say that I will be piloting that monster.... Mario, For Sure this Winter when it starts to cool down, that place gets too hot for me during the Summer.

I'll say it was fast, I was the one standing at the end of the strip with the black radar gun that had the battery pack. I was out there most of the day and I believe I clocked that red & white sparks raptor in the low to mid 60mph range. I had to leave early beacause my daughters boyfriend rolled his jeep on a hill just west of the orange stand pipe. Everyone was ok they all went to the hospital to be checked out and everything was a/ok. And if that wasn't enough, we went out to comp hill Sunday night and he snaped his rear u joint on top of the hill. Not a good wkend for him!BR>

I seen that, didnt know if it was fatal or not but yes it didnt look good.

I had to leave early but about noon time I had my buddy race you a couple of times and first you got him and second he got you. Mine was the all black and white Raptor. 690 of course with mid range cam, 14.5:1 piston, geared real low for 1st gear take offs. Cant wait to see what that 730 will do on Race gas!!
Like Mad said, I dont think that was the 470 you raced because he was only there on Sunday.

Mark is geting a Dyno very soon so we should have my bike dialed in 100% within the next couple of weeks...
Hey Mark, When I get my 730 done can you squeeze me in bro? I guess from what I heard from others around town Sparks has me BLACK LISTED..... LOL!!! Who F*****g cares!!! I know of a few shops in town that I get my stuff from and they get it faster to me than Sparks did anyways, PLUS IT WAS CHEAPER to go thru them than Sparks. Can you believe that!!! LOL!! hehehehe I am bad arent I...................

Posted by: madracing
no he didnt get to.i clocked tony in the low 60's not bad for a big boy, now it seem everyone was running slower this weekend but my bike hits 68 mph once i get it back together i would like to run tony's i think it would be close. but keep in mind i'm 180 and i think tony is around 60lbs more he has a super fast bike
Posted by: ANNIHILATER
