Is that your bike in your sig? If so, you might want to make your quad narrower if the track that you are racing on is narrow, but i made +2 arms work for me, since the track i race on isnt very narrow. other than that, get good tires (Razr and Razr2 are my preference), a steerng stabilizer (the expensive ones are really nice, but the cheaper ones will still do the job), and good protection (good skid plates, a good front bumper, and i like handguards) those are the basics, from there if you want to spend the money, get better shocks and hop up your motor.

Take the sway bar off, you can get 4, 1 offset rims so you can keep your longer A-arms. Hyper are good ones. Good tires, I like Holeshot HD rear and XCT for the front. YOU DO wont to get rear skid and a belly skid as well. Just think in trems of making your quad a tank. You can only go so fast in the woods so think to make your quad last and stay in one peice.

with what you already have showing in sig...get some 4 to 1 offset front wheels, good skid plates, and some 6ply XC tires of your choice, handguards are a plus and most organized racing will require a tether cord kill switch
