3 Hour Long Mini Bike Endurance Race

We head down to Tx for the Go Power Sports GPS 180 Race!!! This was a 3 hour endurance race with the most laps wins. We kicked a chain right off on the first lap and got help back for over 1.5 hours of the race. Lonnie finished strong and did 15 laps with a sub 7 minute lap at his best. Stay tuned for a carnage video on how the bike held up.

[@frenchokie]

Lonnie rides smooth! I’m very impressed

[@RVGeneratorboxcom]

We had an awesome time at this event! Lonnie is making this look too easy an smooth… Ugh, this Track is much rougher than it appears. Chain issues were definitely a killer. We’ll be more prepared next year. Thanks for taking the time to post.

Great video gentlemen. Hate to see the chain problems, that bike sounded so smooth, and strong. Always been a firm believer in carrying a chain tool and eliminating the master link all together. Sounds like you guys have a good plan for next year. That was an awesome looking course. When he got back out there he was really letting her eat. Just realized you have over 367,000 subscribers. That's incredible!!! Congratulations!!!

Race..Break..Repir..Pepeat! The more you race, the more you learn and you guys learned quite a bit this year. I do think that Lonnie would have been in the Top 10 if that chain had stayed on. He is damn sure a Sportsman, even when he didn't have a chance at winning, he went out and finished the race. Good Sportamanship Lonnie!! I enjoyed watching this video, you don't have to put out a full one as you covered the important parts of the race. I'll see you next year!

Good seeing you guys and props to Lonnie for pushing through and putting down some blazing lap times!

Way to go guys! Lonnie running hard and smooth! you should add some communications between the rider and pit, that way you can be ready for repairs, when he gets there.

[@BuildingDaily]

Just bought a mb200x and stage one kit from Evan at Go Power sports a few weeks ago. Evan is an awesome guy and Go power sports is an awesome place... they are local to me, about an hour and a half drive. Also picked up a trail master mini Kart for my son... you can't beat the service.

Great job Lonnie!! I hope to be joining y'all next year.

[@dirtfootracing8788]

Hats off to Lonnie for busting it even with all the "challenges" - Great strategy for the race.....theres alot of "Cannon Fodder" when it comes to endurance races....most bikes are not correctly built for those long rides. See you guys out there next year...PS the Trailmaster seats are junk as you found out

I started welding tensioner boats and adjustment boats and brackets on my motor mountain plates makes a world of difference if you got a slack chain a little twist of 2 boats 1 on each side pushing against the bottom of the motor block tightens that chain right up super quick highly recommend the mod

[@InnocentMiscreant]

When racing the wierdest stuff will happen just like the master link falling out it might be a sacrifice but I'd tack weld the clip on

[@mccathernfamilyprojectsandadv.]

Charles from cars and cameras really hollered rubbing is racing lol

[@skipjames8437]

I thought that was charles.

[@Toolness1]

I noticed the CarsandCameras dudes have a toolkit that straps to the front of their handlebars, probably a good idea to throw some common tools in there, spare chain, link, and belt

[@rcclassiccrawlers4368]

That stinks about the chain issues on Lonnie’s bike. Next time just throw a couple tack welds on the master link that way that won’t be the problem anymore.

[@JNC1973]

Of course we wanna see the full race video. I though that was the end of the race for you guys when Lonnie pulled into the pits after taking a spill. So he did go back out there and race some more after that happened ?

[@thehappyhermit01]

Yep, carry a spare master link or 2 in your pocket. Also, Trailmaster needs to find a better way to secure the seat on their 200's. That bolt is held in by plastic. I had to replace mine after only 1 month of riding. Come on, Trailmaster!

[@quevicular]

Did Vaselini Builds end up jammin with you guys?

[@bigbaby1177]

This really feels like a dumb question but im gonna ask it any way. How would performance change IF (Really big IF) the Driven pully was attached directly to the wheel and eliminate the chain? I havent had a yard cart in 30+ years and never fooled with a CVT.

[@jaydee659]

Can you not have a backpack with some parts/tools in it on the rider? Guess I’ve learned some stuff from snowmobiling!

[@dorsk84]

Are you allowed to work on the bike on the track? Like an extra masterlink, a few common nuts and bolts, and associated tools.

[@The_gold_arc]

Do you guys build for fans still paying tho I want a cross cart but can’t find any one selling one if I had a pipe bender thin I would just make it my self

Why do mini bikes throw chains so much?

[@safetyharborfirearms]

No tensioners - bad adjustment - no maintence

[@Deucealive75]

Can have issues with non stock shocks (taller) combined with a different tooth count sprocket.

[@safetyharborfirearms]

@@Deucealive75 A chain guide or tensioner is a must - the Cars and Cameras crew suffered chain issues on both of their Colorado trips. We made a real simple chain guide for our Trailmaster build “Big Red” Dirtfoot Racing on KZbin
