Default Grizzly beat me

I raced a grizzly 600 today and got beat. I was very surprised. My 500 keeps up pretty good with my friend's sp 700 carb. The sp 700 carb beat the grizzly by a small margin.

He beat me off the line too. At 50 mph he was about 5 lengths ahead. My sp is running very good too. The grizzly 600 is a lighter quad, and it is a 600.
I was still surprised though.

It should win, considering it has an engine that is 20% larger and weighs a lot less than a sportsman. There are not many Grizzly 600s out there. Just plenty of 660s.

By the way, does anybody know how the new Grizzly 700 stacks up to the SP800 in terms of low end power? I could see the Grizzly having the advantage with its 165 lb lower dry weight.
