Today I had my first race with my Moto. It was a hot day and the track was perfect, not to much dust.
First moto went ok, took a top 5 position, dunno excactly, from a total of over 20 quads. Had to race against some fast ones like the new Polaris MX with KTM engine, W-tec Evo with CRF450, W-tec with KTM 525, KTM 625 and some other 450's (heavily tuned).
After the first moto the Moto got lots of attention, people are like "what is that" and "omg, it's fast". And they also liked the sound (fmf ti and podfilter)
The second moto did not go so good. In the first lap a Polaris 525 stalled in a corner and I was close behind him and had to stop and then someone else behind me did not notice it and hit me full speed. So my FMF ti is a mess, muffler is destroyed and the header bend. I did not notice it untill after the race, I still took a top 5 position.
Lucky thing is there is a exhaust manufacturer 200 yards from here. I'm gonna see if they can fix the muffler. I think I can repair the header myself, since it's only bend a bit.
I also have 2 nice pictures, I bought them after the race at the track. Gonna see if I can get them scanned within a few days.
