Well to drag you will need to spend some money. Your best bet would be to get a pipe, clutch kit, a jet kit. Then get a new airbox or drill some holes in the stocker. Then get a K& N. That should be a good start.

The 4 strokes will cost you almost double to modify as the 2 stroke will. Keep in mind, that the 500 scram is NOT a drag machine and was never intended to be one. It is big and heavy and the 500 4 stroke is by no means a horesepower powerhouse. A good pipe, clutch kit, jetting, and K&N will run arond $600l. Look to HPD for the pipe and clutch kit. I would highly reccomend them. I bought my HPD stuff from RCR. Good luck.

polarisman72,

Just remember that ATV drag racing is primarily bracket racing with a few heads-up classes for the fast quads. Going fast is a matter of personal preference. But, you don't have to have a fast quad to get started. Take your stock Scrambler to your local track and just have a good time. You might even win some $$$$$ to help pay for your mods.

Just trying to help ;-)

Lighten that thing up any way you can. Take stuff off that you don't need. Drill holes in unimportant things to lighten them up (only do that to things where strength is not critical).
