Wildthing Races at GTG's.....

[Arrowhead]

This may be a very stupid idea, but I think it would be entertaining. It's garage sale season in most areas now. I see a constant supply of Wildthings anywhere from $5 to $20. For future GTG's would anybody be willing to race them. I say they should be all the same cc (not sure if they are), and that's it. Anything else goes.... pipes, porting etc. I know with it being a clam, it's limited. Perfect time to experiment. If it fails... no loss. I'm sure some of you may think I'm a moron for this.... and you may be right! I just think it would entertaining if a bunch of us got together and raced these turds. Anybody interested??

I think it would be pretty entertaining myself.

Timberwolf put NOS on one a few years ago. There are pics of it floating around somewhere. Needless to say, it didn't have a long life, lol. But it sure was cool!

Good idea ED. Bucket racing for chainsaws!

 

[GoRving]

Sounds interesting. That's one saw I never have owned. I do have that version in a leaf-blower, though. Got it for 5.00 at a yard sale. Runs great.

Works for me! I love to find a Hank Jr. model.... I hear they are rare.

I think it would be a blast! Short lives is definitely expected. It would also be a good starter saw for newbee modders (like me) to practice even though the design ain't like a pro saw. Are these open port? Are you in?? LOL

I'm thinking several months down the road personally....

 

[blsnelling]

Are you in?? LOL

We just had ethics training at work today. I don't think I can do this:greenchainsaw:

[wigglesworth]

Sounds like fun to me. Heck, I leave them laying around the scrap yard all the time. I might just have to pick one up.

Guys, we are getting back to the fat chick and the moped thing....both are fun to ride, you just don't want your buddies to catch you doing it.

I was given one of the newer strato wild thingys so I'm in, who knows, fat chicks and mopeds may be cool.

 

[polkat]

I just shot myself in the foot I knew I should keep every saw I got; a budd gave me a new wild thing strato in all I sold it the next day who knew they were in so high demand :greenchainsaw:
