DVX32...you say the predator is crap because the top speed is only 70-75? Well last time I checked you never get to top speed in an actual drag race and you sure as hell don't get to top speed in a motocross. So if what you are going by is top speed you are the one that is on something. If you really wanna go for top speed find Doug Nicholas's old drag racers it was a polaris trailblazer...well by the time he was doen with it, it was jsut the plastic and frame but he could never get to top speed without wrecking. I believe he had it at around 115-120 maybe. Also he has a predator that prolly goes 85-90 atleast. I really dunno why you would go with top speed though.

LoL head027 you are funny.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]Beleave what u must.

Two Raptor660's with extended swingarm,HMF full exhaust,paddle tires, K&N filter and no airbox cover 2 different Raptors 2 different people with the same mods.Couple weeks back I draged with these 2 guys for hours on end.We had a sand drag strip equaling 100 yards give or take a few.They got owned by a bike length up to 50 yards,65 yards they would catch up then eventualy pass me up to the 100 yard mark.Yes they did beat me about 4 drags out of 10.One of the guys was about 30 pounds lighter than me and the other about the same weight as me.As you can tell I have the exact same mods as these guys.Only difference is that we all three had a different make sand tire and they had extended swing arms.If the drag strip was around 125+ yards then yes they would beat me in top end every time in the sand.

Stock race between the z and raptor the raptor wins. I personally have driven them both and love the raptor...lots of bang....handles amazing....the z is nice but not as much bang and speed....

I've seen some pretty fast polaris's...but no one will believe me...?

I believe you.. I saw one the other day it was doing 90 down the freeway in the bed of a new dodge ram with the hemi

Lets be honest can we do that?... Say this with me "P-R-E-D-I-T-O-R-S Suck" can you say that? Goooood!

Ok one more time "P-R-E-D-I-T-O-R-S Suck". Now that you learned that quit telling people to buy that P.O.S.. Just because you got srewed by a sales man dosen't mean you have to get someone else to throw there money away on a P.O.S..

And by the way who was it that started this nasty rumor that trailblazers are fast and a good quad? Are you out of you mind? I've flushed better things than that.

And somebody remove that trash from under my name. In no way do I support a trail balzer

Okay...I didn't get screwed. I got a great deal and I am sponsored by my dealer for motocross. I doubt you have any machine that will come close to the polaris's my dealer has of his own. He doesn't lose. If he does lose he won't lose the next time. He used to have the fastest 4-wheeler in the U.S. He sold it. It started out as a trailblazer. It ran 3.9's. He NEVER got beat on that. I am also pretty sure your banshee won't even compete with a predator in MX or anything else for that matter. Stock banshees are outdated. I have seen some really fast banshees but they had prolly atleast $30,000 in them. You obviously don't know what you are talking about. It makes me so mad when people like you say stuff like this because it isn't true and its not even close to being true. It's insane to even compare the banshee with the predator. The predator compares to the new Honda CRF and the new Yamaha YZF. They are all pretty close in top speed and all great quads. I personally think the predator is the best one but I don't wanna get in to that. I just don't understand people like you.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

you know head, the guy didnt even ask about a predator, but you and your fellow owners just had to get into it. You made some cracks about the z:
The Z is basically a pile. It is slow and it is just crap. The Raptor is way better then a Z.
but then threw a hissy fit when dv32 had a different opinion.

You went on to say:
If you dont want a Predator and i don't know why you wouldn't go with the new CRf 450s or the YZf 450s. Those are about as close as your gunna get to anything as good as a Predator.
Basically telling the potential buyer that only the brand new purpose built quads with very high price tags could come anywhere near your precious pred.

Get over yourself and your bike. You and your racing team you wont shut up about might have some very nice machinery, but that does not mean that everyone else's sucks. Nor does it mean someone cannot be happy with something else. Let's try to provide some straightforward answers for those in need of them. Not start flames so big that they wish they had never asked.
