    Tdub Say what???

    Shit, don't tell him that!! ;) You could not find two clay half miles more different from each other than Volusia and Savanna, yet the setup really is not that much different.
    You guys have fun!! :up:

    I can tell you this, 15/50 on a stock xr100 can be held wide open for 8 full laps at Volusia county. 8 long, long laps. Wide open. Green to checkered. Merica'

    Volusia was pretty smooth this round..smoothest I've seen in a long time! I will probably end with a 46 tooth on the rear at Oglethorpe. Can't wait! Robby you come over to have some fun?

    If its your first time, dont sweat 1 tooth... Chances are, you will be trying to find out where to go anyways:)

    Worst case, bang it off the limiter:)

    I just talked to Robert Lewis, who is SEMDTRA’s Honda 450 guru. He estimates 14/41 4th gear as a starting point for you. Depending on your pace of course.

    Volusia and Savannah are not similar. Savannah is faster. Way faster. 6 teeth faster on my combination.
