Westcoast Arenacross

Wassup everyone,

I talked to the event organizers of the BC Arenacross this year on the westcoast and I have got them to add a Pitbike class this year.

Anyone from out this way going to this can bring their pitbike and race too!

Check it out if you are from in and around the area.

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

I drove the 12 hours from here to there and had fun. Got to meet the guys from Konker from BC and the pitster pro dealer. Had fun and my fiancee got a couple of shots as well, hope you guys have fun this weekend too!

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

Hmmm about 24 hours from here, do you know if Chilliwack is playing in Chilliwack any of those weekends?
Seriously though, it would be nice to head out in January to race, no indoor series here anymore (big bikes or minis ) and our indoor riding facility closed down last month

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

We sure had fun, and put on some of the best racing in my opinion. I have some tranny guts comming to try and sort out the whole bump start thing, and if I can save enough extra im gonna throw a v2 head at the thing to try and get some power out of the old girl, I think I may have been the only guy not running a set of inverted forks so that may be an idea as well.
Good meeting you guys!

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

2nd weekend. Round 3 on Friday, and Round 4 today. Friday was a great time!

The race was not as tight as Round 2 (last weekend) but it was still great to see Tron of Hypermotorsports try out the Konker 150R. This kid is 12 years old and weighs 70lbs of pure BALLS! - check out this video of him. Each time he takes the lap he gets faster and ballsier. For rounds 3 and 4 they changed the course to a much more aggressive course - much more spectator friendly - not so much for the riders. Watch him take the doubles - he even landed the triples on the back side of the park. GOOD TIMES!

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A43D0CISpRs]YouTube - Konker Motors KPX150R - Chilliwack Arena Cross - Nov 14, 08[/ame]

361ways - it was great to meet you! That's awesome you drove the 12 hours to check this out. Props for making the drive. Too bad you couldn't make it out for round 3, and 4. The course was much harrier this time with much more aggressive jumps.

Hope we see you in January!

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

Wow thats awesome, Im gonna need a racehead for some more power or im gonna get lapped!! Good on you guys for comming out again - I wish I could have made it but on the plus side all my tranny parts from bbr and ahp minis came in so I can get her fixed up on monday and not have to bump start anymore.
Hop to see you guys in Jan!!

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

Just finished tearing the 110 apart, broken output shaft, teeth ruined on input shaft and kickstart gear, three tranny bearings poor, some minor inner case damage, have all the aftermarket parts but input shaft and kickstart gear are backordered to Japan, may be able to ride again just before christmas....I'm bummed.

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

Update... got all my parts yesterday and threw it back together, runs again, and shifts into all gears again!! oh yeah and the kickstarter works again, now on to the real problems....turns out i am getting spanked down there by lighter, younger riders, since im not gonna get younger and probably not lighter, I ordered a tb 165 kit, now my head is still stock garbage but ill at least have some torque. Maybe I'll be able to race in Jan after all, lets just hope there isnt too much snow for me to make the trip!

Re: Westcoast Arenacross

Im having trouble finding info on that swap, I see there is some sort of ncc adaptor to mount my exhaust, otherwise not sure how much extra work, may have to just save for the TB V2 head
