I did a couple years ago with some success. On my 478 I could never get traction though. I played with maps and even changed the cam degree setups a few times and I was always spinning. Also had issues with overheating when going flat out for more than 6-8 laps at high rpms.

My 450 mild engine hooked up everywhere though and was actually faster than the 478 since it didn't spin much. Still ran into overheating issues after a few laps though, but I ride in upper rpms at all times. I was using good radiators, heat shielding on oil lines with the upgraded oil line kits, etc.

The suspension and handling were fantastic, though all aftermarket, but I could never get past the overheating and frying batteries constantly.
They've been mostly parked for a couple years since besides riding around the neighborhood.

I ride at the mx track at breezewood PA on practice days sometimes but I don't race mx.

Cannondales just cant make the power and have the suspension of the new 2019 Japanese machines. Plus they dont have factory backing like suzuki and honda these days.

Yamaha is the only one making new sprot atvs. Every one else stopped years ago

I know I was just pointing out the sad state of race quads.
Our local quad track switched to motorcycles and the circle track shut down.

It's much of the same where I'm at. Six tracks within 2hrs that allowed quads just 4yrs ago. There is only one left now and it's only on Thursdays, so riding is limited if you like tracks. There is no MX racing within 5hrs of me for quads nowadays.

I still do but not as often as I would like do to working ( Bikes only).
