Its a great racer if your wanting to run the sport class or something similiar to that,because in a sport class if you don't know,it is mostly warriors,300ex's,blasters,mojave's racing.300ex's and blasters just about dominate that class and a 250x is just like a 300ex so it would be a great racer after some mods.

If you want to put a new engine in it, I would suggest a 250r engine. A 400ex engine may be too much stress on the frame, and a raptor engine would most definately be too much stress. You could also put a 350x(trike) engine in it, and I believe it bolts right in.

uni air filter
14 tooth front sprocket( great)
proted and polished head
new timing chain (half to have with the big bore kit
