Yeah i dirt drag race it, it doesnt even wheelstand, shoots straight line. Got to work some minor bugs out but we will see what it has on saturday, i will get a time in 300ft.

gowen,it will probably be a little lower after changing from 21" to 19" front wheel & tire.after some tuning and carb,pipe switch it should be a lot better.after this weekends racei'll know more. then i will explain the engine combo to the forum.you guys will flip out......

I'm totally jelious. I miss draging alot. I was planning on getting serious with it, even purchased a wreaked R6 for the motor, but was shut down with our only park closing... It's like a breath of fresh air to see somebody out there enjoying an awesome KX... Wow!

there's suppose to be a track in lumberton n.c. that we are thinking about venturing down to try.it was mentioned on www.atvnc.com.the wheelstanding k5 was my fault.a little more off flywheel and a little more timing.changed back to old setup now.did make for a good picture though.

Depending on where you are coming from, you should shoot right through Raleigh to get there (assuming you are coming from VA). I've never heard about the track, but lumberton is about 2 1/2 hours away. Which I'd consider, but the placed that shut down was about 30-40 minutes away and was good for a few hours of riding each week.. Is it a drag strip/park? I'd be curious to know. I'd like to find a place to ride that has room for some wide open riding, including drag racing when I get back into it. Right now, I'm preoccupied with racing @ VIR.. But that is sesional and can't do it too often as it is super expensive for parts, upkeep and tracktime. So, I'm looking for a dirt alternitave.. Plus my wife is getting a dirtbike (CRF230F) and we would like a roomy area to ride.
