Wow that thing is pretty worked, I have a stock 87 fourtrax 250, for the farm. That thing tops out at 50 if i pump the tires up (26" rear tires). My friend has a foreman 400 4x4 and he has a speedo and he said we were doing about 50 and i was even with him wide open. Nobody can diss the 250's those things move!

I am going to say about 27-30 seconds.

A car that runs mid 13's goes through the traps at about 100 mph.So if U are going half the speed it is going to take double the amount of time.



Does this sound about right?

Acceleration comes into play too. Not just top speed. For instance 2 cars drag, one accels faster and can have a lower speed when it crosses the line then the car thats going faster.

It will do it in about 21-22 secs. My rubi does it in 19-20sec. My friends 1986 fourtrax 250 does it it about 21-22secs.
