IMO this his how it will line up in the drags...... first place will go to the BF 750 2nd will be the P700 with the KQ700 being a close 3rd the P650 will clame 4th and SP800 EFI 5th.... thats just my guess but we will find out soon.

I seen a 700 EFI and a Pr 650 drag race from a dead stop. The 650 shot out about three lenghts and then the 700 reeled him in and passed him after 500 yrds. I bet the 800 EFI will be third or forth in that drag race.

IMO, I believe the shootout will be as follows:

1. kawa BF
2. kawa 700 prairie
3. king quad 700
4. polaris 800 efi
5. polaris 700 eif
6. ac650
7. griz 660
8. honda 650
9. bombardie 650

There are just my thoughts, but I would venture to say that almost any of these quads could win, or at least the top 5. It shoud be an awsome year for big bore shootouts.

Which one will feel the safest (not tip over) in offcamber sidehills?
Which one will get thru that mud hole the best?
Which one will cross the river the best?
Which one will climb that steep hill with loaded up racks?
Which one will crawl around in the thick brush the best?
Which one will get stuck the least?
Which one will be the easiest to get un-stuck?
Which one will be the most confortable after 8+ hours in the saddle?
Which one makes the least noise?
Which one is most reliable?
Which one has the best workmanship?
Which one is easiest to maintian?
Which one gets the best range on a single tank full?
Which one will break down the least?
Which one has the most storage?
Which one is easest to drive?
Which one has the best brakes?
Which one has the best Tranny?
Which one tows the most?
Which one carries the most?



But which one drag races the best is kinda low on the must haves for Utility 4x4's

griz05owner - that's about the best post I've seen here in a long long time. What's up with all the drag race talk anyway? Utils aren't supposed to be fast they're supposed to be all the things that are listed in griz05owner's post above.
