Default Just installed polaris purple spring...raced modded raptor

Just installed spring and raced a friend on a heavily modded raptor. Didn't get clear results because he had just put on a different gear. We ran about 300 ft. and he won by about 3 quad lengths. We raced about a week ago with similar results, but that was before the gear change. Not sure of everything that he has done, but he says that he has spent about $1500.00. I tried to get another friend to go get his stock raptor (2003) and run, but he wouldn't. Maybe I'll talk him into it soon, and let everyone know the results. MY V does pull a lot harder, but I'm not sure how I'll like it for trail riding. It does engage a little harshly. Nevertheless, it does rip! By the way, I raced two other friends on that same modded raptor, and beat them 2 out of 5 times in short run.... maybe 200 ft. I just need to get some more top end and I'll be back. I guess aliens and jetting are next [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] What do you guys think?

Um, yea! I don't even have a V-force, and I can tell you other people have said spring + duals = Beaten craptors

I agree first hand, I have the pink spring with HMF duals and it rips! I've ordered a green spring from Aaen Performance(as per Kevin M) and that should be here any day now[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
