5hp Flatty Sprint...

Ted Hamilton

Helmet Painter / Racer
So, raced my vintage 1977 Margay ProX this past weekend, and despite some issues, had a blast... The most fun I've had in a while, actually. It was less intense (read: brutal) than my 2 cycle racing, and the atmosphere was pretty relaxed, which helped. But I don't see many other chances / places to run a 4 cycle sprint, let alone a flatty sprinter.... Do they exist? Where can I go run, anywhere near the Carolinas? I can throw it on a 1998 Birel or keep it on my 1977 Margay... Just wondering...
 
If you are looking for a great series to run with the MAXXIS 4 cycle Sprint series has just the classes for you. Check them out on line.. next race is this weekend at LAMAR county speed way in Barnesville Ga.
 
On kiddo duty this weekend... I did see they have my class though... and I picked up a LO206 for my CIK ride
 
Maxxis will be at CMP in June. Not sure about the motor rules. I think VKA stock is different than WKA stock....not sure
 
Maxxis runs WKA stockers, but 6" wide rears instead of 7.10s. If I can find a set of cheap Euro rims, I may try it out. Of course you have to run Maxxis tires too...
