Go low and wide! I raced mine once at a flat track race. I backed the rear pre-load off completely, set the compression at the softest, for the front someone loaned me shocks from a 300ex. The Raptor sat almost on the ground! I have 3 inch wheel spacers in the front, 5 inch in the back. The quad ran good, didn't feel tipsy at all with that setup. If you're just racing a few times for fun, I wouldn't do much more than that. If you plan on doing some serious racing, then a-arms, axle, steering stabilizer would be the way to go. I also went up one tooth on the front sprocket, the track was almost half mile long. If it's a clay type track, flat track tires would be mandatory. Don't forget nerf bars and kill switch, and lots of body english! Have fun!!
