WHAT IS THIS CRAP??? They have the heavy azz cat 650 as being faster than the prairie 700 all the way to 40 mph?? The vinson 500 is just as fast to 15 mph as the P700 then its even faster then the prairie?? NO WAY IN HATIES!....... ok i think im vinted out now. what do you guys think of this chart?

 

you have to remember that atv magazine/atv sport always pick Polaris as the winner in their shoot outs. They are both based in Minnesota so go figure. I personally think all the mags are way to influenced by advertiser dollars.

 

I may have been wrong when I stated the prarie was only good for drag racing,
the Cat beats it at that too.

2000MOJAVE, a couple months back atv sport had a shootout with the small sport atvs and the trailblazer finished dead last. i believe the mojave finished first. so your statement isnt true.

 

I subscribed to ATV magazine for one year. After that year it was clear to me that this rag would be best printed on a roll so it could be utilized accordingly.

Moo,
WheelCow

 

atv sport did a shootout with the vforce and ds, and they trashed the vforce. i think they are bias against automatics

 

I could care less about the magazine results because I know the truth.

Only trouble is, someone else may not know the truth and be influenced into buying something based on lies and missleading data. THAT IS WHAT BOTHERS ME!
