Nice run, well done taking a top four position. Looks like much of your sport comes down to technique controlling that 40-80lb monster like a well practiced surgeon. We all dream & talk of one day building a bikesaw but you do it & well.

The biggest problem I'm having is having the balls to hold it wfo....I'm slowly getting there...plus having some of the best hotsaw operators helping me with tips is simply awesome

 

[paragonbuilder]

So the goal is to hold it open from go til the third cut is complete?

I'm sure, sorta like power shifting, your right foot is never supposed to lift (hard to do, lifting the right foot when you push down the left is like reflex).

They say when you lift on the throttle between cuts it causes a ripple effect in the chain then you are more apt to throw a chain....my problem is the vibration and the revs scare the bejeezus out of me...I guess it's a good thing that I respect it a way

 

[Hedgerow]

What chain you running on it?

 

[MustangMike]

I believe those things run a harvester B&C.

 

[spencerpaving]

That was a sweet run. I think I need to pony up and buy a tall tooth chain.
