Cracked radiator + no more coolant = massive overheating. The car actually ran for the last 5 laps of a 25 minute session going full blast like that before it started smoking like crazy (his digital dash ALSO overheats, and then the display is not visible). I think given the circumstances, that says something seriously positive about his build quality

just behave and dont cheat... we'll be good to go. 2 years ago i missed all the fun when two PTE cars got into a pissing contest over rules.

i need two things before the event:
1. Sunscreen... sunday is always a pain when i forget it
2. A sound mind... because there are so many random people walking through my impounds that dont know any better... still doesnt make me happy.

Not selling the R. It is in Race trim and finished, does not cost me dime while it is sitting! Dont worry I will be back out. Just decided to do some other wheeled racing this year.

The racing that I am doing this year is on two wheels and powered by me!
Entry Fee's of 30 dollars and winnings in the 100's if you can place well! A blast and great to be in shape again!

I used to do lots of trail riding and racing the trails looks like a ton of fun, but I bet there are bikes out there worth more than my car

The bike in the picture is a 09' Gary Fisher Full Suspension, that I ride for longer races or courses that are rougher. Also have a very light weight hardtail that is used when courses are smoother and fast.

Both bikes are 29" wheeled. 29" Wheels are truly a great thing for someone my height and they roll over things so much easier! Really a no brainer!
