Here's
my former roommate Ted "Wee-Wee" Mink racing
in the Super-Stock class showing his cornering skills.
As you can see by the suspension set-up there weren't
any jumps to woory about. Barnett's was a technical
TT course and was one of our favorite tracks and where
Ted and I had the most fun racing with our buddies
due to the low pressure, fun nature of our local club's
events.
Ted
grew up in Farmersville, Ohio and worked for the
local Yamaha dealer, Yamaha of Dayton, that I raced
for back then. He broke-in this Tri-Z by racing
a 4-hour, two man, Hare Scramble Race. Yamaha made
a very durable motor in those old Tri-Z's and we
both did very well when we raced them.
ATV:
1986 Yamaha Tri-Z 250, Ohtsu flat track tires,
lower clips removed from rear shock, and Answer
silencer when rules permitted.
