motofox21 · 06-29-2009, 05:49 PM

i'm planning on coming out for my first go. Old school SSR 125...with 10's. Looking for gearing so I can atleast try to keep up.

loosestools · 06-30-2009, 06:42 PM

bat999 · 07-01-2009, 06:53 AM

Yea...I'm thinking it will be some useful time, and fun to boot!

bat999 · 07-02-2009, 02:08 PM

I can't wait. Rode up there with the USMGP and it was a blast. A group of five or so of us were there with CRF based machines and a couple of thumpsters but otherwise it was pocketbikes and scooters. We'll be there Sunday around 7......seeya

loosestools · 07-02-2009, 07:55 PM

how abrasive was the track surface and how long is the straight

bat999 · 07-03-2009, 03:45 PM

Surface not to bad. I run Sava (med) not soft. Good traction and tire wear. As far as gearing, I run a 15-35 with a TB 95 and AHP 4 spd tranny, and I don't top out 4th down the back straight. Might could use a 36 but ?? Sat. night practice will help those that have never been there. Tricky track...but fun as hell.........

motofox21 · 07-06-2009, 12:03 PM

I heard a rumer that VIR runs their carts clockwise now rather than counter clockwise (making what was an offcamber uphill, an offcamber downhil). Anyone know what direction SEMRA will run it?

loosestools · 07-06-2009, 01:20 PM

does anybody know how close the gearing is compared to btk?

bat999 · 07-07-2009, 08:00 AM

I think it is the same. I have only run BTK one time and I don't remember what I used. I had a stock swinger at the time and my rear wheel was rubbing. As far as direction, I'm pretty sure they will run up the hill, so to speak, CCW.

loosestools · 07-13-2009, 08:56 PM

WOOHOO!!,Virginia was fun for us.A 2nd in adult novice for my son and a 2nd and 1st in t136 and f1 for me.

motofox21 · 07-14-2009, 07:46 PM

I thoroughly enjoyed my first event with SEMRA, didn't make it on the box, but preformed well. Hope you guys return to VA again next year.

you were moving along pretty well with those skinny 10" tires.i watched you a couple of times squirming through the last turn on to the front straight.

guyonhonda145 · 07-15-2009, 09:04 AM

Yea, I had a few moments there. My tire profile does lack some to be desired, but I've got less that $1500 in it and didn't finish last in both F2 or Thump136. One happy camper here...
