I am pretty sure a tecate would win, i dont know by how far though. My brother had a tecate and all he had was pipe and reeds and it did 90 on pavement.

The Tecate4 would win, but not by much if the Shee can get out of the gate w/out spinning the tires forever.

As for Blaster1435's brother's Tecate4, I will tell you that he has to be guessing at a top speed of 90mph. My T4 has a FMF pipe and silencer, reeds, Roost boost, .40 over, ported and poilshed head, higher compression some carb work and my Tecate4 will not go over 80mph. Somewhere you have to draw a line between speculation and reality.

Banshee97, has a Shee that has some really trick parts on it, now his shee I think would beat a tricked out T4. I saw this same post on the Yamaha forum, and Banshee97 said stock for stock, he beat a Tecate4, I would have to believe it was a very close race though. But a Tecate4 with minor mods will beat a stock Shee. That's not a small feat for a relatively small 250 compared to a twin cylinder 350 of the same 2 stroke family.

In sand I believe the Banshee will win. I raced a non-stock Tecate 3 (three wheeler) with my non-stock Banshee and won by 3-4 lengths in the sand...

I had a 87 tecate with a fmf pipe and raced my buddys 87 banshee 370. I took him out of the hole and beat him in the midrange. On top end he could pull away but keep up with him. My other buddy has a 98 banshee piped. I can beat him on bottom, mid-range and on top end. When we both get maxxed out I can look back and he is about 3 to 3 1/2 four wheeler lengths ahead. The tecate would eat the banshee alive in a drag race.
