i say you'll be at LEAST tied with a stock banshee, especially if its spinnin its tires. and if you wanna save a lot of weight get some carbon fiber rims with the titanium bolts.

 

how much are those new carbon rims i saw thim in dirt wheeels thatnks for your replys.

 

Well, all that I can say is that you better get a majorly extended swingarm. HPD, HotSeat, G-Force, etc. make them. You will have tons of torque with that monster. If you can't take a Banshee with a 600 kit then I will make sure that I never buy a Scram 500. I've ridden a TBlazer that runs with stock Banshees and Raptors and it took an extra $2000 to make it that fast. So if you can't beat a Banshee with $3000+ worth of mods on the 500 then I don't think it's worth it. I hope everything works out great for you. You'll have to post some pics after you're done.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

blazer250, i think you are full of bs! to get a trailblazer to run with stock banshees, lets figure out how much power you would need. ok, first, the trailblazer weighs 450lbs. the banshee weighs 400. so the trailblazer needs 3 more hp to be faster (gaining 50lbs is like loosing 3 hp) ok, a banshee makes 39 hp stock. trailblazer makes 21. so, a pipe adds 7hp. you are up to 28. lets say a carb adds 3 hp. that gets ya to 31. port? 5hp more. 36 (stock scrambler 400) only need 12 more hp. hmmm, airbox mods well say ya get 3 outa that. 39, stock banshee, but he is still lighter! and his cluch hooks up right away, so he will beat you out of the hole! tell me, what did you do to your trailblazer? maybe i shouldnt have sold my tb and bought a 400ex! i bet you have never draged a banshee! ps: i wanna see some pics too!

 

hey how much is the hpd race frame they look nice what do you think would it be worth it or should i stick to stock beacuse of the cost please give me info thanks

articcatsux,

Let's just say that if you have to ask for the price of the HPD frame, you can't afford it. Last time I heard, it was close to $10,000 for a rolling chasis. They might have come down in price some but I doubt it. The frame was selling for close to $5,000 alone. Then you have to get the stuff to make it a rolling chasis (spindels, 4 A-arms, a swingarm, axle, carrier, hubs, etc...)

Oh yes, the only thing that would fit on the new frame from the old frame was the engine, transmission and plastic.

 

I didn't say that it was my TB. I rode G-Force Racing's fully modded. I had the chance to buy it(and still do), but I figure, why don't I just buy a Banshee or a 400L that is almost just as fast stock and just make that way faster than the TB can get. The TB has been lightened up with nerfs, no headlight, no battery, no electric start, no oil injection, lightened flywheel, chrome pipe, new handlebars, etc. They also had a custom reed valve conversion built for it ($800). This thing is super fast. I was peeling out on the street [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img].It has over $2000 worth of mods. That is the most bad-*** TB I've seen. They took it to the Coral Pink Sand Dunes and it was running with stock Banshee's and Raptors. I don't have any pics of it because I don't own it.

 

articcatsux, I have a pipe and clutch kit on my 400 2x4. I recently visited Silver Lake Sand dunes. I had no problems staying with Banshees and 400EX's and I didn't have dune tires, just stock. Needless to say, they were surprised when I was right there in a drag race.

 

thanks hyper i will skip that option unless you can spare me around 10000[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]i think i will stick to the stock frame like they did whith there last race quad. people were saying that i should hard mount my moter they said it will shake but it will make the clutch work better what do you think i willl do that if it is better since i am taking the jug off it to get a 600cc kit hey hyper do you think i could beat a stock banshee in a drag race (on pavement)
thanks
mike
