Default Can the lt win against a RM.

I recently got into an arughment up here in my new residence of alaska about what would win. I have an 90 lt500 punched 50 over, fatty, v-force reeds, cool-head, and just about everything else that can be done to it without serious alterations. Anyway the man at the bar, ( ya we were drinkin) has a 2002 rm 250 punched 50 also says he can beat me in a 1/4 drag. Please tell me I didnt throw $100 in a stupid bet. Thanks, talkin crap in Alaska for all the Lt's out there.

keep the front down or your toast! (drive it like you stold it) If you dont beat him, send him out to me, ill smoke him [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]


(why a 1/4? your talking top end, yes than you will loose. race right and use both of the machines peek power points and race a 1000 foot drag or even a 660 foot drag. Both machines are so different, and weights are disperse differently, not really a fair race. ) but thats just my opinion) Just try to run him over as he goes by, maybe he will let you win

NO! I will lose. This cant be. I raced a rmx 250 and i beat it. Wha if I had a rolling start, we both did like 20mph or so? Did the alchohol rwally get to me. I am trying to represent for the Lt's up here. If i will still lose what can I do. Help I want to beat bikes!

man im telling ya, some of these bikes are fast, they are getting to be as fast as crotch rockets, thats why im selling mine, look at my pics infor page, all the stuff it has yes makes it insanely fast, but you cant ride it anywhere, zillas are heavyer thats why, and keeping the frount down for both of you is a problem, if you can hit powerband in 1st without a wheelie you might get him. i know on my rm it is impossible to hit powerband in 1st, with out flipping over backwards in a wheelie gone bad.

try the roller start.
