Default Yamaha Blaster (moddified) VS. 2wd Polaris Scrambler 500 (stock)

*Blaster*: fmf fatty pipe and silencer, reed spacer and a k&n air filter. *Scrambler*: stock.

*Rider experience* 1=bad 10=good : Blaster rider=4, Scrambler rider=9-10.

Both will be racing tomorrow, scrambler rider is probably in the top ten riders in the state, I think the weight of the machine is its biggest drawback, so tell me who you think should win, I would like the scrambler to smoke that little blaster, but not sure if its gonna be that easy (that little thing can fly[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img])

Tomorow is the day,

Mark

being the blaster rider has skill level of 4 and in any type of racing skill is one of the biggest variables i'll take the scrambler
but even with equal levels a scrambler would still probably win...

The scrambler should always win that drag race regardles of skill(all you have to do is hit the thumb throttle) but i wood bet the blaster wood take it on any kind of track(except maybe a flat one)

I don't know about the 2wd but I wasted a 4x4 scram-500 with mods on a stock 98 Blaster. I think it will be a close race against a 2wd but I got my money on the blaster with a good shifting rider. No experience necessary for the Polaris. Hit the throttle and hang on.

In my opinion, top end I would give it to the blaster only because the blaster has 6 gears. But, drag racing I would give it to the Polaris.

i jus raced a scambler today in a drag. i was on my 96 blaster with fatboy2 silencer, reed spacer, 18 in wheels, and k&n clamp on air filter. it beat me off the line but by the time i got to 5th or 6th gear i was catching up pretty fast. so in a short drag id say the scrambler. in a longer one the blaster could win.
