Just find the ratio of 48p and the match it to 32p. Divide the spur by the pinions (84/22= ratio)

Nope, in PA, at Scr8p's waiting on Hoopty to show up. He should be here in about two hours. Not 100% sure, but we will likely go up in the morning.

i'm gonna be heading up saturday morning instead of tomorrow. it'll give me one more day to rest. i've finally started to feel a little better the past 2 days. i figured why push it? it's better than not being able to make the trip at all.

not to mention, with all of the crap going on lately with my health, i didn't have the time (or energy) to get all my stuff finished and backed up. so, there's no way i could leave in the morning with hoop and lex anyway.

Rest away sir :wink:

You need all the strength and energy you can get, specially for a two day event like this.

I'll say a little prayer for all you guys driving or flying down :wink:

Hey Cline, you're taking up too many darn spaces, :roll: one spot per racer :evil:
:D

That double jump before the straight away is kinda tricky, isn't it?? :lol:

If I didn't have school tomorrow, I would be up there getting some laps in, I guess I'll just have to contain myself till Saturday :(

I only have one spot :) My friend has the spot next to me. The whole tack is tricky to me Off road is different than on-road, I need to learn how to jump and roll on the throttle. I spent most my of the night walking over and flipping over my car, I feel like a walked 10 miles :)
