I just wanted everyone to know that there will be a detailed report and photos of the installation of the piece of work from Wayne Scofield. I just want to thank him for trusting me with this piece of artwork. It looks and works fantastic. Unfortunately we did not get 6 full hrs on it, but 2 hrs of race conditions isn't too bad. I am hoping to get more time on it shortly to give a better report.

Let me know how that goes! We could get Michelle riding her Dale again if they end up working. She will be turning Pro for the last round of the WPSA's and we could use the extra horsepower!

They work. Now all you would need is Wayne's ok for me to send it to you. Although mine is a heavier flywheel so you may want a lighter one.

2:00 and 4:47 in the morning?!!! Geez guys! Does that mean I'm just really old?

Come on Wayne, give this girl a go with it! If there's anyone on the site deserving of the opportunity, after Robin of course, it would be Brian and Michelle. That girl will put some Honda's and Suzuki's in their place!

If you get the okay, I'd definitely do some practicing with it first, though.

To be really fair they may not want the wheel I have as it is heavier than stock. Slows the revs down.

Derno Wayne is more concerned with getting some good testing done.I am sure he wouldnt have a problem with you sending it to them as long as they run it.I was going to give mine to them anyway but I havent gotten it yet.

Unfortunatley I am not the owner of this flywheel and I am not just sending it out without Wayne's approval. It has been getting tested at other races, but again it is a heavier than stock wheel and doesn't rev as fast. I would see that as a problem for their type of racing.

Ok.Lets talk about the wieght then.Can you really notice the difference?I know you run Harescrambles and XC does the heavier flywheel make it easier for those type of races?Less likely to stall?Would you recommend this heavier flywheel for guys that run Harescrambles and xc?

Definitely, but it steals some of the snap which is what happens with a heavier flywheel. Just so you know I am running it on a Falicon 468 cc motor with FDO head porting. It has snot to begin with so a little loss isn't bad for the tight stuff, but for mx not too sure.
