As you may have read in my posts, ive had carb and other issues (i hate that word) with my 89 marathon. but with the help from you guys this story has arrived ... while at the race track, this guy was tailgating with his club car that he obviously thought was "all that". pulled out to pass and says "you wanna race", my wife says "with this old thing" dont think so!. well the next opening guess what...SHE KICKED HIS A$$. next thing i know, my wife is running everyone.she said i used to think this thing was slow, (so did i ,frankly). but, for all the rookies out there, tell these guys EXACTLY what you did (or did not do), take pictures, if you dont know how to describe it. Now, for MY question....what did i do to make this thing run so good,....shag

and my little 2PG runs rings around my buddies in their much younger 4 strokes. That little Robin engine is a trooper.

Yeah - many people can't believe how fast a well-maintained and correctly set up 2/3PG can be. I inadvertently learned another lesson too last week when my buddy noticed I had a low tire and offered to pump it up for me, then proceeded to fill ALL my 22's to a nice healthy 24lbs psi (he just "assumed" being an off road tire that about 10psi lower than a car tire should be about right as versus the 8psi I generally try to run in them) - net result (other than the ride comPLETELY going to he**) was about another 3.5mph, actually hit a healthy 25.3mph on the GPS before I calmed down and restored reason to the tires.

Not saying you should try this at home, just a little FYI story over coffee :)
