Default HELP 03 700 SPORTSMAN PROBLEM

Hello let me start out by telling the problem. Me and my 2 friend bought 3 03 700 sportsmans. Well we all ride together and have raced, mine would out run both not buy much just a little. Well now we raced and both my friends will out run mine.I have installed a heel clicker clutch today, I have 27'' tires dyno jetkit and some extra weight like winch and bumper ( you can see the list below). We start at a dead stop and he jumps right out of the hole around 3 or 4 atv lenths everytime but then I start keeping up toward midrange. Well I thought it was the tires so I put my other friends stock tires on mine and raced again still the same out come gets me out of the hole everytime but I keep up with him on top end. Can anyone suggest anything? Is the belt slipping is the dyno jet not tune right?

i would say its the clutch... is it set up for more mid power... check out the Dayco belt more grip on the clutch will help it grad better.

I had a high lifter clutch in and the results was the same. I think I might try a new belt do you like the dayco?

the dayco belt has alot more grip on your clutch so that will possibly help with your take off power. when u do run this belt you need to make sure u run in low gear at speeds under 10mph or 7mph is what that manual recommends
