No vids,sorry guys but there wasn't much to see. I only got to put about 5 laps on her. Track was super sticky and actually prepped really well for a banked oval stock car track. There were ALOT of bikes there,its Grand National TT weekend in Peoria,there were bikes from all over the US,but only 5 quads. Took it out for practice,ran great but the rears were too grippy. Came in and put some American Racers on,got ready for the heat race. Kick,kick,kick,kick finally starts. Make 1 lap and its popping,cutting out then backfired and blew the head pipe off,made it off the track and into the pits under her own power. Get the head pipe on,pull the plug and find the gap partially closed,along with the coil mount bolts vibrated loose causing a loose ground,sweet,easy fix. New plug,tightened ground and she fires first kick,my buddy makes a few laps in the pits,good to go! Couple hours later its time for the main,kick,kick,kick,kick,NOTHING,WTF!!! Missed the main,pushed it in the trailer and went home,didnt even unload it,I will figure it out tomorrow or Monday. I expected to have a few minor issues since it only had about 10 minutes ride time on it,but I figured it would've made it through the night..lol... Regardless,I had a good time,seen lots of fast bikes and met alot of cool people. I will get this thing figured out and hopefully hit 2 more local races in Sept. Two other local stock car tracks stepped up and offered to hold races this year,very cool thing they are doing to help themselves and us.

This is the one good pic we got,the rest would just be me working on it,lol. Mine and my buddies quads together. His has a 501 Baldwin motor,and is for sale/btw. Next to us is our other buddy,an old national TT quad guy running his bikes,crf450 and an old Chris Carr Rotax bike,very cool bike!

Finally had the time to breeze this build thread, awesome job!!! I can envision a new series on History channel called "Trailer Park Treasures" coming about..

Also, I seriously never thought of corner weighing a quad, aligning yeah, but not corner weighing...What's wrong with me, I'm on it!

Props! great build and 265PV to boot!!!
