• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Lap times Glen Helen - 250 vs 450

About every-time I compare the 450s and the 250s lap times, it's usually hard to see anything slanted towards the 450s ... Seems this track with all the sand and uphills, the 450s would have a big advantage but the lap times are about equal, excluding Eli ..

Yep and those are average lap times. I wonder what the fastest lap times show. I know indoor the 250's often run as fast or faster lap times too. My friends probably won't admit what I figured out long ago......the average rider is faster on a 250 than they are on a 450! I know I am. Heck at our MX club my son turned in the fastest lap times on his "slow" 2010 Husky TC250. Just proves an average rider is going to go as fast as they are comfortable and more power doesn't mean more comfort and spinning ain't winning :D.
 
Only argument is the 450s run after the 250s so.the track is 36 minutes x 40 riders worth more chewed up than the 250s rode on,
 
But well said about the huge deep uphills and long straights point taken, 450s are just monsters even stock in my opinion. 250s esspecially tuned to the level those guys have are really quite impressive. They are everything you meed
 
You guys make some good points but I just don't see how it is possible to run so close to a 450 on a 250. Guess it's lots of wheel spin lose ..
 
Plus the 250s are on average a little lighter and are able to make some pretty good power while revving faster.
