well lets here it for Dale, who won the race, and for Jerry who built the motor...
they took the offer to race RK (Q), and they beat him racing up the hill. in the real world...
HELL YEAH!!! Congrats on the win Dale! Was RK running Zelda? Win or lose, that's a sexy ride.
Awesome job Dale & Jerry! Hopefully some betting was placed before the races....
i think they are loading the vid to youtube.
I'd like to see a cost of build comparison. I'm not discounting Jerry I have spoken to him and its very obvious he is very good at designing and building a bike. But the cost of having him build a bike vs the cost of RK being able to do the majority of his build himself says a lot to me. That and the fact that Zelda looks effing awesome and was detuned for the race. I have no horse in the race seeing is that neither rk or Jerry have had a hand in my Zilla at all this is just my opinion.

Jerry does the work on the motor components and built the pipe, while Dale builds his own bikes and assembles his own motors.
Big round of applause to Dale aka The Fisherman!! What a story book ending to a saga. He has stepped up to every challenge and product testing for the quadzilla world to push the envelope and get the truth out.
Time for a Carl build and an MHR build to knock him down a couple more notches.
No doubt congrats to Dale and Jerry just saying Jerry has such a good reputation that it allows him to charge a premium for his services and not everyone (by that I mean a lot of people) can afford to have him do the machine work in their engines. For example I'm getting a package of work done to my engine at a 1/3 of the cost, is his work really 3 times better than most all other builders? I doubt it but again this is all my opinion and I'll likely never see a HPR bike ever.
was this over one run or multiple runs?. Looking forward to the video. Respect to every builder who spends time, money research on these old bikes .

Not 100% true dale never stepped up and raced the challenge kenners put out... Just saying

what the hell you think Q's been charging and now who has the 80's tech? Congrats to the winner at what ever cost... Now he can crawl back under the rock a few more years..and hell Zelda should look really good as a half buried lawn ornament..." Hey Quadracer gang here's the rare Zelda plant Lil sun some water it should pull to the moon".. I can hear the video now!
I have no clue I didn't get a quote from Q to do any work on my build except for a pipe. I did get a quote from Jerry and it was triple what I'm paying to have the same work done. An extra 5 horsepower I'm guessing is the maximum if anything I gave up with the port work I'm having done. So 3x the cost for a couple extra ponies was a no brainer for me.

He will need to have another metal pig/wolf thing made to mount on it!!
I would love to see a vid of this race, and pics of these quads. Definitely want to see Zelda.

Dude im dying!!! That was purely amazing!!!!!!!!
i seriously have to save that lmfao
Isn't that what just went down?
Oh, the street race...the "real world" race where everyone runs their quads on pavement?
The only time my quads have gone on pavement are connecting trails or drying them off after a wash.

I never said that just pointing out that yoyo's statement isn't accurate. And you asked what challenge so I provided you what challenge. No matter how relavent or irrelevant the challenge nobody wanted to run on pavement. When my bike is done ill run on whatever surface anyone wants to run on because in the real world people race on everything from ice to sand and all surfaces in between. I also don't care if I lose no matter how fast you are there's always someone faster just a matter of time till you find them.

Please..if you want to take what I said a nit pick go ahead. Knippleberg can call out another street race tomorrow and if nobody shows up he is king? Just remember he even said in his video that the most prestigeous race is the hill so what does that tell you....
