Heres a video from last sunday at the races, ran the 250 quad class but im pretty sure i was the only 250, not trying to make any excuses but the both had aftermarket cylinders, one was an LRD and the other was a CT. If i can get a good start at the next race i think i should be able to hold them off for at least a few laps.
