Re: Flat track....
Hoosiers or american racing
if i were you just get some +3 a arms and run stock shocks. maybe a durablue swaybar and a shortened rear shock.
or you can be redneck like me
i am warning you tho... this DID blow my rear shock... it was totally ****in worth it tho.. rippin 40-50 mph around corners in subdivisions running from cops was TOTALLY worth it..

Lonestar makes some great a-arms and anti sway bars
Cost alot to set one up right for racing, but once you do you will be amazed how they perform !! and it's not like you cant switch it back for trail ridin with a little wrench time
You got to try flatrackin :YEAH

Re: Flat track....
That's badass, wish there was a place to do that around here. I have seen a set up like catman's before, on a 'shee for drag racing, only he didn't have no fancy strap, just some rope.

Re: Flat track....
Some pics from what I guess you call flattrack "over there".
My debutant race and ended up third.
Lineup:
In the pack: #33
Finished!:
Podium, me on the right:
Despite gearbox problems (couldn't shift down, only up) and a SuperMotard suspension setup (Way to hard), it was a lof of fun! Came at a price though, "quite" battered and bruced after the race. Came from bouncing around on the bumpy track.
