Hey guys , any tips on prepping your quad for an XC race , when you know it is going to be nothing but "MUD"?

Put dielectric grease on all electircal connections. RUN YOUR AIR BOX LID with no holes drilled in it! A nonslip seat cover and some 22" rear tires are a big help. Wrap duct tape around the front bumper to keep roost from clogging your rad. or air fins and oil cooler.
Thats all I can think of right now.

before the race spray the entire quad down with wd-40 (not the seat or grips or controls)

wrap duct tape around the top of your boots (keeps nasty stuff from giving you smelly feet

have someone ready to give you fresh gloves and goggles atleast 1/2 way thru the race if ya can
