Title: Can I run summit with no CAN?
Post by: smoke on April 18, 2005, 07:19:55 PM
I am running way short on cash trying to get this bike done in time for summit. I'm still pissed about the whole dam bike deal...

I had a lil let to get a ne stock header off ebay for cheep. if I buy a can I will not have tier and race entry fee money

so can I run SS and SB with no pipe... just loud as hell with headers. if not I am out for the weekend :-[

Mel they got that wacky decibel limit.  It's something like 104 measured from some spot near scoring as bikes cross start/finish.  I don't belive they actively measure everybody, but will measure and boot you if your bike is that much louder than the others.  Without a can, your bike will stick out like the proverbial turd in a punch bowl.

Thanks guys

I'm busting my but to get ready.. but I just may say F  ITand Wait till the FUSA.

There is one big thing that I've learned.   Some people are all about the money and wil screw you over others just so they can get money!  To say there is nothing you can do is a bull crap copout.. You choose to do nothing!    I'm done

Sorry guys for my rant I'm just pissed off. Even when the bike is done i'm still going to be pissed. I'm trying to take the high road but this is so F en WRONG!

Didn't Wait do it "Canless" for the FUSA race there last season?

If he did have a can on, there wasn't any packing in it. That thing was loud as Hell.

Wait went without a can at a couple of rounds in 2003 and was told to put a can on. The rule was made for the 2004 season.

if the weather is ok i'll be on the 1000 she's afraid that i'll have too much fun on her 600 ringing the guts out of it trying to move my fat azz. I'm not a real big fan of summit anyway so if the weather sucks i'll be a specataor and pit beiotch for a few buddies that will be racing reguardless.
