Looks great! I remember some of your earlier track photos where you were hardly leaning on the turns. That's great that you shaved almost a minute off your 1st laptime.

Killer price on the Talon Hee. Do you know why it overheats?

JenX: Congrats on the improvements and the pics look great.

I got my quad done at Advanced Powder Coat in Sparks about 1.5 years ago, and they did a great job. Good price and friendly people. The powder coat still looks brand new after a lot of sand and dirt riding...What are you getting done?

I'm not sure why it overheats and I just don't have time to look it over. Kris, I saw I missed some of your calls but hadn't had the chance to call you back. I'll give you a call later today.

If it was in Sparks, it was probably him. He just put a new clutch in it this past weekend while I went to the lake with the girls...

try spraying the IC pipe with hairspray before you put the rubber tube., it should act like glue when it dries...(so i heard).

I just asked my husband who is there all the time buying parts for our truck, and he says Summit doesn't carry much stuff for EVOs there. We have ordered most of the stuff for mine on the internet. He says it all depends on what you are looking for. We will be getting our fuel pump, wide band gauge, gauge mount for the stereo relocate there, but that is about it. They have intakes and stuff, but not a lot actually in stock. If you find the part you want on their website, you can call the 800 number and ask them to check stock in the Reno location for you. That way you dont waste your time...

Oh...and for the problem with the icp you are having, hairspray should work. However, for a permanent fix, Summit sell Turbonetics Stainless Steel T-Bolt Clamps, in a lot of different sizes. And the majority of those are in stock. They work very well, and are about $6 a clamp.
