New Nbssr Is700 Record!

[DoktorC]

. The NBSSR TRAIL improved stock 700 record is 119.9 held by GMCSRX.

Are you sure that's right? I know Larry Simon's sx used to run 122-124 in trail improved and my brother's 99 SRX ran over 120 as a stock sled. Maybe they've changed the classes since then..it was a few years ago now.

Congradulations either way!! Good to see blue still putting up the numbers!

I'm not sure, Claude told me 119.9 in Trail Improved. Wow if its 124 I've got alot of work to do. lol
It's all fun either way, great way to meet awesome people.

Actually I ran 123.2 but back then we there was no Trail class and we had speed tracks. 120 with a stock track is very respectable...Fastsx

Any idea what the record is for 800 improved trail?

 

[valin]

We should talk to Claude and see if he will build a webpage to post the records for each class.

 

[deekersrx700]

Good idea ryan, apparently radarruns.com and NBSSR are getting together on a new website, thats what I heard anyhow.

 

[valin]

Nice. Hopefully this upcoming weekend will be a go.

Looks like I've got some lowering to do

 

[deekersrx700]

Hey ryan, thats what it looks like, I didn't realize that it didn't say you couldn't be tied down.

Deek

 

[deekersrx700]

Ryan, I emailed Claude and he said that we can't be tied down.

Argh.
How does it sound for this upcoming weekend? Is Claude still planning on holding it? Sounds like it's going to be cold all week.

 

[mrviper700]

pretty simple to lower a srx without tying it down, simply place a piece of ductape up around the frt spring colars, lower frt by reducing the spring tension. For the rear, install larger or even double the rear transfer rod bottom spacers, then suck up front limiter straps.

 

[valin]

Ya, she's fairly low now.

 

[deekersrx700]

Not bad for a little 700!

Will we see 140 this weekend Doug?

[deekersrx700]

Lets pray that mother nature cooperates and we can get the last one in boys!!
