YouTube - Round 6 Adams Motorsports Park ProGP Vet

I have already posted this video over in the video section, but I figured I would extend a direct hand to my mini road racing brethren. This video is from Round 6 of the SCminiGP championship at Adams Motorsports Park in Riverside, Ca. This is the ProGP Vet class ages 18 and up with bikes ranging from 85cc and 150cc motards and 85cc and 150cc RS and TZ GP chassis'. If you live in California I highly recommend making it out to one of our races. It is a 10 round championship taking place at 3 of the top kart tracks in California. The club is also in conjunction with SMRRC in Northern California. No I do not work for these clubs, I just love to race and I am always looking for new competition. Come out and see if you can hang!

Awsome video. Is it just me or are those fences and trees a little too close to the track for comfort?

Thanks for the compliments! Yeah, some of those fences are a little too close for comfort, but that track is actually the most dangerous of the ones we race at.

For sure crazy footage, hard stuff could hurt!!

So what sort of motor are you running, Honda, Yamaha?? Kinda curious about the setup as one of my bikes has a CR80 motor so it's always interesting to know what pipes, carbs others use!

I'm running a stock 2003 CR85 Motor with a 28mm Keihn Carb and a custom built Jemco exhaust, all mounted in a 94' TZ125 Chassis. On the more flowing tracks I can keep pace with fast 150 guys but when we get to the tight "punch in punch out" tracks, I lose a little coming out of the corners. Luckily my strong point is the brakes All of the other guys running two strokes in that class are running kitted 92cc motors.

That sounds sweet, just knowing what people run these days is always useful and it's interesting to hear how the 80's compare with the 150's!

My MH has a new boxed 2003 engine and 100cc bigbore with Mosbarger reed cage and 28PWK. I've got new pipes from Japan for it and was thinking to try a 33 PWK as it's got the big bore. The only concern is the Japanese pipe builder didn't recommend his pipes for a big bore so would be nice to find a pipe builder who can do or does pipes for the big bore setup!

My other project I've got a new CRF150R motor to fit to the NSR chassis with a singlesided swingarm kit. I've got bodywork to make a mini RVF750 look.

I wonder if you'd think to have your cylinder ported as the stock cyl vs modded could give an edge! My stuff was done by RPM years ago.

Anyway it's good to hear things between the motor types are tight, if you've got good recommendations for pipes or setups would be great to hear!!

Jemco did my exhaust and I have no complaints whatsoever. I know a lot of the other guys running two strokes at my club are running the Jemco pipe and they have big bore kits and their bikes are very fast. Here's the website: http://www.jemcoexhaust.com/
Where are you located? I know of a couple other exhaust builders in California.

Hey cool to hear, yeah I'm banking on even if the pipes being slightly wrong for a big bore kit, the net result is still better. I'll have to check out Jemco, do you have any photos of yours? The price is reasonable for sure compared to Japanese offerings.

I'll pm you later as other exhaust builders might be worth looking at also. It's nice to know guys are still running 80cc moto engines, keeps the demand for spares and pipes up!!
