Well with the rc if you land wrong you can walk away. Unless you land it on you.
I think motocross is fun as well. I think should motocross while batts are charging. :D

i hate to say it, call me what you will, but man, 4 wheelers give me the creaps when on a track. i dunno what it is, but im more of a dirtbike fan. i think the main reason i dont really like it is because if a 220lb bike lands on you its bad, but if a 600lb 4 wheeler lands on you, well, its really bad.

yeah, you got that right, i just couldn't make the transistion from a street bike to a dirt bike, (too squirly in the rear end), and raceing a four wheeler is more dangerous and challenging, thats the thrill of it, especially when we are going just as fast or jumping just as high as the dirtbikers everyone is like.....

WOW, I DIDN'T KNOW A 4-WHEELER COULD DO THAT!!!!

but your right, it does hurt more, A LOT MORE!!! :005:

it hurts even more when the hot tail pipe or exauste burns you. or the bare engine exposed. THAT HURTS! and the 600lb on you to. ouch!

That four wheeler should have been closer to 400 than 600. I think my buddies 4 wheeler was little under 400. So that is not as bad. I hate it when the exhaust burns the crap out of you.

Even worse, IF the oil leaks out after a run! Can you say skin-gone? OUCH!

it was a 2006 Yamaha YFZ450, ext. rear axle (50in.) for AMA/ATVA regulations, and i had just ordered a $3000 front racing A-arms/shock set-up like 3 days before it got stolen in December, luckily the company i ordered from refunded my money when i faxed them a copy of the police report....

it weighed right around 340lbs full of fluids.... after i took of the non-race ecential stock parts....

from my accident that i almost broke my back....notice the bent lower right A-arm, the steering stem was also smashed down to the cas tank cracking the gas cap, and the rear grap bar snapped off, luckily that all the damage, but then just after i fix it, it got stolen.......NO INSURANCE!!!

Man every one wants what you worked so hard for. It sucks they took your bike. It looked like it would have a been fun to ride it. Could have sold it off and got more rc stuff.

[squeeforever]

i was kinda exagerating on the weight of a 4 wheeler although my bike does weigh 220. 340 is pretty light really. my old 4 wheeler weighed closer to 500+
