Fastest Stock Quad??????
Dirtgirl,
I might have to take you up on that offer sometime. It might be awhile though. Do to race schedule and trying to get all the buggs out of it. Dang thing is overheating right now. I think I know what needs done. Taking it back up to Don this saturday if the parts come it. I'll let you know and I'd put money on the Quadzilla in a drag race. This thing is fast but I think the quadzilla is the one and only one that can beat it on top end.

Do you have proof of this that the Banshee can beat the GasGas? Have you even seen a GasGas in person? Have you rode one? I own one and it flat out flies. I also own a cannondale and the GasGas smokes it in top end. Last I recall when dirtwheels did a shootout on top speeds of the banshee and cannondale they were very close (can't remember which one won) but if I have to I can find the article and post the results. My point is the banshee and cannondale (as what Dirtwheels said) are close in top end speed and my GasGas blows away the cannondale so it should beat the banshee. Remember we are talking stock form not piped or any or mods. I'll have actual results once the race season starts.
My next question is how really cares which is faster do we all ride at 70+mph all the time? I'm not a pro rider and can't and won't run this fast with trees inches from both sides of the quad. Speed is nice, but a smooth riding, controllable powerful quad is what counts in my book and the GasGas is number one in those catagories, it's an added bonus that it has a top speed over 80 mph.

So I take Gas Gas doesn't have to report to the CPSC. The CPSC has a top speed limit of 75 MPH. This was not in effect when the Zilla was in production. The Zilla was the reason it was put into effect.

Hmm, HP numbers mean nothing if the Vehicle or Quad isnt geared right. ive seen 600 HP Cars get beat By 350-400 HP cars, and 30-60 HP quads beat 90+ HP quads, so Numbers on paper are just to get people to lean towards certain products. and never take for Granted that the more HP something has, the faster it is. Because HP isnt the only thing that makes vehicles fast.
