My Trip to Sand Hill ATV in Perkingston, MS

Cool pics :tup:

They'd be even cooler if you were wearing a DAMN HELMET!!

When did you go?

Check out my video at the same place where we made a climb in the back.

Sorry man, but all it takes is a split second and it's game over. A guy I know was killed this summer riding without a helmet. He was just putting down a trail, lost control and the quad flipped over on top of him and crushed his skull. He wasn't like a close freind or anything, but still, it was a shame, and a helmet probably would have saved him.

I have seen people out on the trails without them and it just seems crazy to me.

At least you were out in the sand!

Yeah, that sand is very forgiving, and 90% of the time I ride with one, but honestly most of the time out there I'm climbing soft sand and seldom make it out of third.

Also, did you check out the part of that place called "area 4"? It's near the cement plant and has some really cool places to climb.

It's back my the "wall" where everyone tempts fate by riding on it and slipping into the pond.

You'll pass the landfill.

Pretty much. Others have done it on stock tires but ultimately failed.


I tried it with angle paddles (and incorrect offset wheels) in the shallows of a creek on my 700xx and ended up putting it on it's side.

So hes runnin single exhaust? Hes loosin alot of power on that Raptor....up to 17rwhp in the overrevs.

Man thats alot of power from an exhaust change, What kinda RWHP they put out?

Yeah, he's got the Yosh exhaust. What would you recommend for him?

He's having electrical problems with it now but would love for it to haul ass like the KTM.
