i raced some guys at a 300 foot dirt drag strip today. there was me on my stock 450R with just a 13 tooth sprocket, the guys i raced were ridin a 400ex, ds 650, raptor and a banshee. i first lined up aginst the ds 650, it had a web cam, pipe and header and a jet kit, i beat him by one quad length. we raced probably a dozen times and i beat him every time. then i lined up aginst the banshee, it had a cool head, ported and polished, bored 40 over and it was piped and jetted, we tied. we raced probably 7 or 8 times and i beat him twice and he beat me once and tied the rest. i beat the 400ex by about 4 quad lengths. i was very surprised that i beat the ds 650, but i know if the track were a little longer he would have gotten me. the banshee pulled even with me from about 60 foot all the way to the finish line, im not sure if the shee would have gotten me on top end. the guy with the raptor never got it out so i didnt get to race it.


im not bragging or anything, i was just very surprised i beat the ds650 and tied the banshee. i was also just wondering if anybody has a list with all the fastest quads times, i have a out dated list of the top 6 1/4 mile times but id like to see a updated list.

 

Sounds about right. I just got my 450R today and I can deffinetly say it feels soooooo much smoother and quicker than my old DS650 but then again my old DS was stock. You would have killed the rappy by the way unless it had alot of work done to it. I know my old DS killed stock and some piped rappys all the time.

 

if you beat a ported and piped banshee then the person who did the portwork did more harm than good or he just didn't know how to ride.

 

i dont know about that banshee but everyone said it was pushing a lot of power. are the banshee's not very quick off the line and more of a longer track racer? i think the banshee would have gotten me in the 1/8th mile though. i weigh 135 pounds and the guy on the banshee weighed 132 pounds and we raced several times and we were very close every time. i smoked the ds off the line and mid way he was always about a quad length and a half behind me and by the time we got to the finish line he was about 1/2 a quad length behind me, i know if the track was a little longer he would have pulled away.

does anyone have a updated list with the fastest quads drag times?

 

race the banshee on pavement and the results won't be the same.

 

i was wondering about the sprockets you people are talking about. is it in the trans? what does it do? thanks
