What Modifications...

[DartSwinger]

I'm not new to Blasters, and I'm not new to working on them, however, I am new to racing them competitively. What I'm asking for is what parts should I get to make it a bit safer and competitive, I know all about getting extended a-arms, different gearing, and hydraulic brakes, but what else is needed? Do most sanctioning bodies not allow you to race without nerf bars, and a tether kill switch? Also, should I think about extending my swingarm, what affect does that have on performance? The racing itself will be a mix between Mx and more XC stuff, so what should I get? I have all the current mods in my sig by the way.

I do think in order to race you will need nerf bars.

If you dont plan on riding tight trails I would go with +3 arms and use YFZ shocks on the front.
