  1. There was another topic on here about it not too long ago. The smoked clutch was staged just like most other scripted stuff on that show. As for the guy who lost it in a divorce...who cares? Not our business. Lol
  2. It's not necessarily a show n shine. It's more of just a show. The guys that have show bikes don't race them anyways and have them polished up on the sidelines sitting and waiting for that part. It works best with the schedule because otherwise we'd have the opening, then the show then it would be lunchtime already and we would have not even worked up an appetite.
  3. wwwhoa! Not sure how I managed that, but I fixed it. Nobody voted for white anyways.
  4. whoa! You have kids now??? Congrats dude! Glad you are doing well. I merged the 2 accounts together.
  5. Hahaaaa holy crap. Wassup Dan. What was it? oh yeah...dnchevyman that's right. LOL What's the 12 pack story? I don't remember. How's life treating you?
  6. The support this year is looking great! plus PainterJoe is in for custom ATC paint job! plus Silver State Trucking & Heavy Haul for bringing out another loader this year plus Smokin Al's BBQ!
  7. Never mind. Turns out I have the Intellidash owners manual with all my paperwork from the buggy when I bought it! yiah I got it reprogrammed to what I think is right. There are settings for 0-250, 0-260, 0-350 and 0-400. I'll check it with a Raytek gun tomorrow night. I think I got it though because the fans kick on right when the temp gauge reads about 228-230.
  8. So yeah. I got the Autometer sensor installed and it seems like it needs to be adjusted. I'm idling at like 250 degrees once it warms up. yikes haha Got the procedure to calibrate it?
  9. Very nice. Your nuts for dumping that much money into a kids bike! Oh wait...nevermind.
  10. I don't remember that. You sure. 15?? If this track grows as much as everyone is talking we'll be running night races!
  11. Right on, Daniel! If time permits, I might even slap another one together before the regatta. Ya know, because I need MORE sh*t to do.
  12. YEP! No doubt. I tried but hurricane Dumont came out of nowhere and I helpless trying to tear down the 10x20 canopy in the wind by myself.
  13. Yep, except for the juniors. Thanks. I'll update that.
  14. Really? My Busa car wasn't off like that. I'll check ot though with a raytek.
  15. True but so far navy blue is winning.
  16. You da man. I got an Autometer sensor today that looks like it will work. I'll let ya know how it goes. Thanks bud
  17. OK, we held our first regatta staff meeting last night and this should answer some questions Classes J = juniors: under 13 yrs old S = stock: 70-88cc M = modified: 90-125cc U = unlimited: over 125cc ATC's will be limited to BACKBONE style ATC frame only. That means no front down-bar design like a 185ATC frame or anything else. It must resemble the Honda 70 backbone style frame or be close to it. Also, motors will be limited to horizontal cylinder only. Suspension does not put you in a higher class.

  18. DrATV has stepped up again this year and is donating a few hundred dollar's worth of goodies for the raffle!
  19. Right on. Thanks Brian. Except the stock LS sensor is a weird course thread size. I'll look into the Autometer one.
  20. I need a new temperature sensor for my Intellidash. It uses a separate sensor than the one for the ECM. The wires got pulled out of mine and it looks like any similar resistance sensor might work as long as it's 1/8" NPT thread size. Any clue what might work? I guess I could just contact Intellidash, but it seems like a simple single wire ECT sensor would work.
  21. So we had our first regatta staff meeting tonight I think all of us, in addition to the track designer (Donnkey), decided to make this year's track in the shape of a donkey.
  22. This week we'll be getting the shirt design hashed out and I'm just curious if everyone would like to see a different color shirt this year or should we just stick with black? There will only be ONE color printed, so don't treat this thread as a special request topic. I just want to see what the general consensus is.
