Coffee Shop / Tracks in Michigan and northern Ohio
« on: August 03, 2013, 01:30:17 am »
Im looking for a home track that is closer that the one I race at now. I live in Southeast Michigan and the drive to Potterville is about a hour and a half, so i want to try and find a track that is closer to me. Anyone know of any tracks in the like Adrian, Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor, Jackson area? Or even in northern ohio?

Briggs OHV & Vanguard / Re: Throttle Problems
« on: June 19, 2013, 02:26:53 am »
I went to the race and my carb acted like it was plugged up, when i put it in the lower gears it would bog down under throttle. Like I couldnt do anything but Idle around in anything deeper than like 4th. I cleaned my carb and it still did it, I tried another carb that I have and It was still doing it and then I took off one return spring and it got a bit better but I need it haha. So my question is how are people running their throttles, specifically g/p racers?

Driveline / peerless 700 problem.

I have a peerless and I have found that it is a nine spline axle. Now i have a dilemma 1 buy a new output shaft and maybe 4th or 5th gear set or, sell it and buy one with the correct spline. Let me know what you think I should do, right now my 5th gear is 3/1

I know what Toe and castor and camber are. the problem is that I bought a kit off of bmi that and i welded it up so Idk how to adjust my caster or camber. Well for camber i could just bend the spindle but thats close to it.

Chassis / Chassis Help!!!
« on: May 23, 2013, 01:21:26 pm »
I recently got my mower back together after lowering it and locking the axle and it turns once every couple weeks haha. Its turns awfully. I have 13x6.5-6s on the front and 18x9.5-8 on the back. I had clearance issues with my brake so I had to kick the tires way out so my brake would fit on. What do i need to do to make it turn better? I really dont wanna add weight to the front so I can turn so does anyone have any suggestions.
Thanks,
Colton
