Aaron,

Welcome! Glad you are enjoying the site! Lots of information to be found in all the posts, especially for us old 1200/1250 folks. With the addition of the FZ09 and the MT09, Hoosier tires, AFCO shocks, rear disc brakes... It has been hard to keep up with all the updates. Things have been a bit quiet here on the site. Not a lot of people talking or sharing insights as to these upgrades, part numbers available at local auto parts stores, etc... Although I do see some of the information from our boards being shared on many of the Facebook pages. lol!

Where are you racing at? How are your racing efforts improving so far? Always good to see, and hear from, new faces in the Legends world!
Best of luck to you this season.

Steve

Hey there!

I'm new here, fairly new to the Legends, in my first year with a 1250 car and have 4 races under my belt.

I do have to say that this site has helped me a TON with my questions and curiosities!!! I am usually just a silent stand back and listen kind of guy so I didn't register an account until now. Otherwise I really haven't had a need to register my account because the search bar works in wonderous ways if you know how to locate and use it. Lol

I really enjoy scrolling on here in my free time because you never know what you may find just by doing so. Thank you for keeping the site alive and updated!

Engine Care & Tuning / New Carb Jet Rule
« Last post by justfreaky on May 10, 2024, 06:44:29 pm »
Posted on 5/10/2024

Rule up-date #5102024-1

As of June 1st, 2024, The following will be added to the Bandolero Carburetor rule (#2, page #98 of the 2024 INEX Rulebook):

A minimum main / fuel jet size will be put in place for each engine configuration (open, red plate & blue plate).

Open engine

right fuel jet = 110 / .0430?

left fuel jet = 105 / .0405?

red plate engine

both fuel jets = 112.5 / .0440?

blue plate engine

both fuel jets = 117.5 / .0465?

These jet sizes are minimums. If a Bandolero carburetor is found with fuel jets smaller than listed for each engine configuration, that driver will be disqualified.

Drivetrain & Gearing / Gearing with MT09
« Last post by Aus1002Legendracer on April 29, 2024, 08:16:17 am »
We recently changed out our 1250 with the new MT. With the 1250 on a 3/8 dirt oval we ran a 3.58 gear. On a 1/4 mile oval we ran a 3.73 gear. My question is with the new MT can we run the same gear or do we need different ones. Thanks for any help

It's hard to tell what you might get when buying used. I've seen a lot of issues when buying driveshafts. I purchased a new one this year for that reason. Thanks for the update.

Thanks for the info. Yeah I picked up a proper flange from a white driveshaft with a joint and they are considerably bigger. Looks like I'm back to searching for the correct shaft or mak just build from scratch since it's going to be a street legal car. I will the some pictures when I get home.

There are two types of drive shafts that are legal. The original was white in color and has internal retainer-clips on the universal joints. The flanges that bolt to the front and rear were thinner. This shaft is widely used but the u-joint are NOT rated for the RPM's of a legend Car. The second and current shaft has 1200 series u-joint and is rated closer to the RPM's of a Legend Car. The newer gray shaft has external clips. The white shaft will weigh about 2-2.5 lbs less and should be in the 14lb range. The gray shaft closer to 16 to 16.5 range. Both are currently legal and have the same outer tube diameter.

If the bolt pattern is not the same, then it is likely you have the wrong ends on it.
