It would be extremely expensive and a lot of traveling. So we are going to do some other traveling this year instead. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard 7 million https://fox59.com/automotive/internet-brands/michigans-grattan-raceway-up-for-sale/amp/ At the end of this article it says this.... Many racetracks are now threatened by development, and neighbors are sometimes unenthusiastic about the noise and crowds they bring. So it’s hard to say what the future holds for Grattan Raceway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoseySusan Posted April 15 Share #20 Posted April 15 25 minutes ago, BR46 said: Harley....even though I can easily drag the running boards riding 2 up in the turns it not a race bike The last time we drove CO Hwy 82 over Independence Pass, there was a group of Harley riders. I think the road is closed through late May, though. In NM it’s Hwy 434 from Angel Fire to Mora. Stunning views, but a lot of forest fire damage, which has its own spectacle. Motos like to take nearby NM Hwy 14N to the Sandia Crest Rd up the eastern face of the mountains. My favorite hiking trails are up this road. There’s a lot of mountain biking access off Hwy 14 north and south and in the ABQ foothills. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you meant but CJ calls his brother “Smokey” Mokey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although if your attitude is right then they could be. I could see your monkey scrambling on the sides of your racehome. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Silly Posted April 15 Share #26 Posted April 15 3 hours ago, BR46 said: Haven't raced since March and we are not planning on racing until July. Strap the monkey to the sidecar and race through your neighborhood at 150 mph. Problem solved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sidecar that we have tops out around 110. We had a chance to take a modern F-2 sidecar out for some practice laps and Wo46 said.....I dont know that thing is a lot faster. Milan (Dale's monkey) said once you get going it doesn't seem like you are going 140mph. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
