Keep in mind Jay and Brit, Olds hill is about 2-3 miles through the dunes from camp. Or 5-6 to the store/vender flats then Olds hill.
You think im gonna blow it up on the way there?
No.

yeah I put it on for the Pismo ride but never cracked it open, Paul ran the only bike of mine 1-2 times on the drag strip with the nos. 1 other one was never fired up and my sand bike was still under a break in period . its all jetted & ready I just never shot any to it.

Splain sumpthin' to this hick hillclimber....
How is it that a good torque motor won't work well in the sand?
Why will an all top end motor be better?

'Cos most of the time you are screaming its balls off.
TQ is great getting out of the hole but in the sand you have very little traction they just dig from say 0-5 MPH so unless you have something with a big footprint (quad) you aint gonna get out of the hole fast no matter how much low end grunt you have. Bikes only haul ass when they get on top of the sand and that doesn't happen untill your moving pretty good.

Why not gear the torque motor up and take advantage of it?

You could but how well would it pull 2/3rds up the dune when you are WOT in 5th. Unless you ran some crazy 15/40 gearing so you would never hit high rpm, but then it would probably fry the clutch.

I dunno.... I'd ride one of each before I had any port work done.

I used to get worked by 450s out there because I couldn't control it out of the hole and by the time I was moving fast enough for the tire to hookup I was over reving. for the sand you want more topend power fo-sho!
I would blow sand everywhere, then shift, by having more topend power you can smooth it out and get going a lot faster and actually stay in a gear long enough to get some traction.

With that NOS from what people have told me, you are going to get more rpms regardless of your setup. I wouldn't mess with the port timings, with the long hills you have, NOS, high rev pipe, big carb, lots of gear, and hang on. How long is Olds hill and Comp hill at Dunmont, got to be at least 3-400 ft long?

comp hill is 600ft tall, probably 800ft long at the main drag area (or I'd guess anyway)

that's what I thought, the hills are big compared to our Oregon dune hills. That's why to be competitive, you need RPM's and gear at the drag hill to do good. The start doesn't matter as much the longer the hill is. Here in Oregon, the start is everything since we only have 3-500 ft hills here.

Jays friend measured Dumont at close to 1000'.
Gear ratio,
Jetting,
HP,
Steepness of the dune,
It all has to match.
Oldsmobile is longer but not as steep as Dumont.
