Well, I finally got the rear end back in my FST 785 Prairie Friday night and finished it up Sat morning just in time to load it in the trailer with the Brute Force and head to race #5 of the Iowa ATV Harescramble series! All the guys on our team of FD Racing have their own race quads so I took mine to pit ride.
ATV Gurl (Angela) was on the Brute and asked if I wanted to race,,,,,,, her weighing maybe 110 lbs and me at 2?? lbs,,,,, oh yea,,, off we went!
Well, we lined up one modded 700 Prairie, the Brute, and my 785,,,, at the drop of a hat we were gone,,,, I walked away about 4 quad lengths and she was about 3 quad lengths in front of the 700P.
We did this about 3 or four times and each time the results were the same! I was very relieved that I had the power to pull away,,, I was a little nervous that the Brute would almost be able to keep up! I will say that altho I did get out 4 lengths and stay there the Brute did not fall behind from there,,, given enuf space I believe it could and will keep up at top speeds!

Oh, the race also went great, FD Racing took first, second, third, fourth, and fifth places in the Utility class( filled the podium), ATV Gurl took second in the womens, and Randy Meyer took 6th in the B class on his V Force! I'm very proud of the team we have put together, they ride hard, have fun, and always help out others if they need it!
This race was a muddy mess with 9 inchs of rain the week before! There were a few creek crossings that everyone was getting stuck in and all the racers in all the class's were helping each other out along with the track officials. It was a great show of sportsmanship!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

congradulations on the wins! and is the BF stock? and what else do you have in the 785???

 

The Brute is equiped with a DYNA cdi and MAXXIS All Trak tires!

The 785,,, it's all stock! LOL!!!!!! Actually,,, I did have bone stock 700 Prairie tires and rims on the 785 this weekend when I was drag racing it against the Brute,, all my good tires and rims were on the Prairies we raced!

 

I missed the race, I got called out for work Saturday afternoon and didn't get home until 2am. glad you guys had fun, looks like the next one I'll be able to make it too will be Waukon.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

Hi Prairiewrench, how modded was the Prairie 700 ?
Oh, and the 110 lb rider on BF who was on the p700?
Great info by the way.

 

The 700 P rider weighs around 185 to 190 I believe, his Prairie is the newest one to our team and had approx. 150 miles on it.
Mods: Diamond G Racing intake snorkel,, DYNA cdi, Dalton springs and face plate,, all racks removed and strut mounts reinforced, OMF beadlock Outlaw rims with MAXXIS Big Horns on them, AC front bumper, FD Racing rear bumper,, other than that we are waiting on some more stuff to come in for it to make it a little faster! He took second at this harescramble..

 

Prairiewrench, congrads on wins. probably looked like a kawi commercial with all those prairies sitting at the podium!

Bet you know where I'm going with this.
BF with dyna cdi versus P700.
Rider on p700, 80 lbs heavier 11/2 quads, 4 degree key with dyna 1 1/2 quads or more I pick up 2 mph in 330 feet. Lighter tire wheel setup with mudlites and ITP c series type 6 rims are lighter than stock. 1/2 quad length. That’s 3 1/2 quad lengths better and p700 beats BF with cdi by ½ quad.

I knew the prairie could beat a BF.
Well on paper anyway.

 

wrench whats those 785 kits go for. i might have to get one this winter.

 

Thanks for the info and congrats on the wins.
