RX-1 Ton???

Just bought an '06 REV 440!!! Damn that thing is SAWEET!!!

Lakes are just about frozen in Maine, there is enough snow to ride in the woods but the open areas are a little sparce. Once the ground freezes it'll be good to go. The wet ground has been washing the snow away.

I ride up in the Milonocket area all the time! Rangely on occasion. If you like Maine, you should really try Kingfield, it isn't far from Rangely and they have some KILLER mountains and big bowls!

I sit on the lakes in front of a bar and race all day.. Cats have a home here. 1420cc with spray 360hp.

I will say next power plant will be a RX-1 with twin turbo's and NOS. 450 hp shouldn't be an issue with 25+ lbs Boost. But wont use the Yammi chassis.

Hopefully its enough. Where we run in NY there is some serious **** running. We run 5.4 at 120-122 in 660(250 hp), top dog here last yr ran 4.9 at 136-138. Both me and the owner are not 140lbs lightweight riders. Everylittle bit helps. Just hope I can keep belts on it and we should be good to go.

See ya on the lake.

WJ no Lake Sacandaga for now. Funny thing is I dont even run sanctioned stuff, this is a bunch of racers that get together. Bascially think of it as street racing on the lake. No rules first one to finish line wins. ANYTHING GOES!!!!!!!!!

But with that said we shall see hat goes on with the new state speed limit(55mph). It might put this racing to bed. I still havent seen if the law for myself to see if we can get a ticket for speeding on the lake. From what I've been told it is VERY VAGUE.

Later John
