Event Coverage illegal mini bike race

I'm not sure that I would be able to handle the raw power and blinding speed of those Hawgs... But I would love to try!

 

I see that there was some bloodshed. One must have the element of danger and the potential for bodily harm for it to really be fun. Kudos to all involved-yes,I'm jealous that I wasn't there. Now I want to find one to build for Denise's proposed "bash". I just have to realize that 53+ year old bones take longer to heal...

 

looks super fun

 

mini wild one's

 

I don't normally cuss,,,,but ! !

Fukin' scooter trash!!!
another gang we have to watch out for.

 

Hoodlums! All of 'em!

 

Because its cool. Thats why.

 

I don't know if I would have opened that can of worms.

 

hahahahahhahaha to all the responses, both sides.....
I dig mini bikes...there, my vote is in.

At the Lonestar Round-up, there was so much creativity in the construction of some of the bikes there, only wish some of the cars on the roads had that much detail in the builds I'm building one now for next years round-up with a 6hp and a small blower.
Heres the tank I powdered for it..over the top flake babeeeeeeeeeeeee!

 

Jimv and his "friends" are going to hell.................................................

 

I'll see you there!!

 

stay off'a my lawn you damn kids!

 

Where's your lawn? I'll be over in a few, for some donuts-on-the-lawn action.

Cranky old geezers...

 

Those mini-bikes are not eco-friendly.

 

hey denise let us know as much in advance and tom and i will try to make it . do we have to ride the minibike there for once I hope not haha

 

jim PM everybody next time you race with time for us to make it there and we will be there looks like an awesome time

 

we should get scary larry from the jalopyshow down to get us the ok to put on a 2 lap race in latimore(eastern museum of motor sports) in the MUD.
I think that would be a sweet time who else thinks so

Watch out for ManBearPig to ruin your good times on a minibike!!!

 

I've got an 8 horse motor that's been taking up space and collecting dust. I knew I was saving it for something!

I want to be a hoodlum! I have a checkered past, and can do dumb things with the best of them. I can supply references upon request.

 

That would explain a lot....

 

Looks like you don't remember the illegal soap box races.

 

I have already had a lot of people asking me about the mini bikes at the Torque Fest.....I have to ask the insurance company what the status is about getting out there on the track.......I will let everyone know.

We ARE clear for vintage Go Karts - so if you have something that is old (pre 75? for the go karts) bring it out and run some laps before the hot rods take over.

 

HAHAHA That looks like it was a blast. I love it! Those naysayers can stick it up their arse!

 

That looks like a blast. Anyone interested in a Briggs Raptor off of a Jr. dragster? PM me. Set up for alcohol, 28mm mikuni plus a some extra's. sure would make one of those mini bike FLY!!!!!
