Nope, no dirt track racing yet, this is street racing so I have to set it up to takeoff and not lift cause right now I can't let it rip and I don't want to strap her down. Will lowering it help? or both front and back? I just took off the baffle last night and it does feel better.

learn to ride or put a +6 swingarm on it. I personally put a +6 swingarm on mine. I can hook you up with a guy who builds custom swing arms for cheap

you'll more than likely want to re-jet since you removed the baffle, those are fun quads, heres the 06 i had up till a few months ago, i had the CDI box, Ron woods header and drag pipe, K&N kit, and some other minor things, i was never beat

P.S. best launch i could get mine to do on the dirt was starting in second gear, bouncing off the rev-limiter and dumping the clutch

Yikes... am i right when i say that its not a good idea to rev them that high when the clutch is disengaged and in gear.... I cant remember where i saw this at, but they were saying that i can wear the clutchs at a extremely high rate...
but for racing and stuff you got to do what you got to do to get the holeshot.

im sure it wasnt good on it at all, but it never broke or even showed signs of wear for that matter, and I rode it like I stole it
