Hawk Gearing For Summit Point?

[6 Fingered Man]

Normaly i would ask this over the hawk forum but its been down for a week...

Any one have any idea what we should run for gearing? Or even a general idea of how fast the track is? Thinking of going next week.

Hmm... How long is it? how fast is the turn leading onto the straight?

The turn onto the straight is pretty fast I want to say it was maybe 4th gear for my bike. Its definately a good literbike track. Fun as hell and pretty easy to learn.

Good liter bike track = Horible 45hp hawk track. Ill put the NJMP gearing in and see what happens..

Thanks Seth.

that's a good start. when I ran it with a stocker in 99 I kept gearing up until I couldn't pull 5th then backed off... I was still ordering pizza on the front straight. even back then (with really crappy pavement) the turn onto the straight was flat-out.

a 700 would be a different story of course.

I hope the pavement's gotten a lot better
