If you think it looks sweet right now, wait till the winter upgrades are completed. I think it will look a lot better, and even faster. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]


Been in the upper 4's and lower 5's depending on the track condition's. I've never run over a 5.3 on any track since the 686 set up. Been as low as 4.7 and up on our best track(fairplane, wv). I don't know I'll pick up with the new stuff, but I'm hoping that being lighter, and revving higher will help on the track. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]


I will definetly make the trip to Hatfield Mccoy's track if you guy's are showing up. Let you see the "best looking Raptor" in person. LOL. Even though it should look alot better when I bring it down.

Do you have a hard time trail riding on that, or do you trail ride at all? I was thinking about doing some engine mods myself. I just don't know if the hp would hurt me or help me out trail riding

I went trail riding when I first got it back. With the 11:1 set up. It wasn't too bad, just had to be easy with the throttle with the extra power. But nothing you can't get used to.


Now I just drag race, and don't do any trail riding. The swapping part's back and forth just isnt' worth it for me. I have a utility to hunt on, and just regularly ride around on. The Raptor will just be for drag racing, and maybe the occasional ride to Michigan for the dune's if I make the trip. The new set up will be alittle better with the Marvin Shaw Shock's, and new swingarm and everything. Won't be as low to the ground as now, but will be better on the track.
