This model has potential and might do very 
                                  well in desert and XC style racing as long as 
                                  width isn’t a major concern. Other models 
                                  of similar width are raced in these venues so 
                                  I don’t foresee a big issue unless you 
                                  plan on buying one and narrowing it up which 
                                  would negate the stock components which aren’t 
                                  typical of stock parts we have become used to. 
                                  With the reputation Gas Gas has, the engine 
                                  should be strong and sound as well.

                                  folks at Gabriel Racing and we hope to hear 
                                  good things. Another player in the mix can only 
                                  strengthen the marketplace as long as it is 
                                  up to the task.
