So, angel fire was my first real race on my 29's
+
first run down in the nastiest rock garden this side of the Mississippi
it was evident that they R-U-L-E. i had comments like "you are going
to win this" and "you just skip across the biggest rocks".
The first rock section is about 1:00. i was coming out with so much
speed i would make up i would say 15 secs in that min.
Now for the rest of the track i held my own, even in the fast 30+
corners. i never washed out. motoraptors seem to hold fine.
wheels had no dent and stayed straight even bottoming the rims
with my 150lb marshwiggle size figure.
_
flatted my front @ 35psi after i did 5 runs @40. I had to watch my
lines and if i got off i would flat. that is what happened my race run
40psi. I was and should have used a road tire cut radially to give me
more sidewall. but i still can't wait for my wierwolfs.
