wHAT WILL WIn?

 

The Raptor

 

Would it KILL the blaster or .. ? wouldnt the blaster pull away off the line?

 

Kill it? No, but it will handily defeat it. Multiple quad lengths, as long as the riders are of similar skill. Back when my Warrior was stock I could take stock Blasters day in and day out, off the line, and for the whole race; and I am sure the Rap350 is the same way.

 

My buddy has a 2003 Blaster with Toomey B1 pipe, filter, jet kit, 20" rear tires, larger front gear and a Vito's reed spacer. My other buddy has a bone stock Warrior and the Warrior wins every time on top end. It's a close race on bottom end, but the Warrior eventially pulls away. The Raptor 350's have the same engine as the Warrior with a few minor upgrades, so the Raptor may be 2-3 mph faster than a Warrior.

 

off the line the blaster has it but within seconds the raptor takes it....my neigbor has a bone stock raptor and he takes me all the time....its not a killing but i do lose buy about 2-3 quad lengths

 

I would go with a blaster. The warrior is the same exact quad as a Raptor 350 and my stock 98 blaster took by buddies 01 Warrior off the line and in the long run. I would personally go with the blaster. Being a 2 stroke they have a good bit of snap and if the engine ever blows up they can be simple to rebuild and pretty cheap 2.

 

Sounds like your buddy was a novice with the clutch then. Stock for stock with riders of similar skill the Warrior will win every time, by a few quad lengths.

 

Yeah my buddy had to do a lot of mods to his Blaster just to keep up with the stock Warrior in our group. He just installed a degree key and along with the other mods mentioned above he is now neck and neck with the Warrior and they both can ride good and weigh about the same.
