Sounds like you are a former member of the high side club????


Nope, member of the "Almost high side, know what causes it, and whats needed to stay away from it" club, lol

I the main thing that causes a high side , is 1 of 2 things, that is when in a power slide , either the rider gets scared and lets off the throttle, even a little bit, which causes the tires to hook up , or not enough power or gear to high , to keep the tires spinning while in the slide ,which causes the tires to hook up ,see the results above wacko.gif there have been many times when I was in a slide and it started to come around to far , I stayed hard on the power and just spun out rather than risk the high side crash

Yes it worked great except the guy behind me was following me way up.Kind of wierd going that fast and looking right at the front bumper of the guy you are in front of.

Exactly, but I'd rather be looking at his front bumper when I'm on my quad than sliding on my rear and seeing the same thing ohmy.gif either way you leave skid marks in other places besides the track biggrin.gif
