Well guys, Your hearing it first, right here on ATV Connection forums. Sounds great! Now I will have to do some more planning for the #4 quad.
So far I have custom +12 swingarm, a-arms, shocks,hubs,stearing stem,axle,custom resivoir for coolant, new air box,custom bumper(one off),and currently I am workimg on an aluminum fuel tank so I can plate it. The wheels will be Douglas but we are going to have them cut up to look more trick!
I need to find out where you guys get the wheelie bars for drag.

Turbo33 awesome quad, when are you going to bring it to Salt Lake City so I can see it?

Hey Micky, It's kinda like all the guys on ATV Connection that have the baddest quads. They can't just keep them in the garage with nothing said about them. It's a lot like telling everyone where the next race is, the only thing about walking with the Lord is, is that we are allways in the race. 1Cor 9:24-27.

I can only the pray that people who had problems with the discussing of GOD have taken the responses posted and noticed who was posting them. Other well respected people in the Hobby have given thier life to the one who gave his life for them. I also pray that they have taken time to give some serious thoughts to their belief system.
TURBO,
Can't wait to see your quad at Sand and Sport show. I know it will look alot better in person than picture.
MXROOKIE,
Any respect I get it is because Jesus changed my heart. Not that I was a super wicked guy, but I did live in the world.
ALASKA
I still am trying to get some drawings that look like what we discussed.

To all the guys that complemented the work, effort and time not to mention the money I have put into this project THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH! I just was told about this post last night and was thrilled to read all that has been said whether positive or not. To settle things down a little bit I will tell you all that the Raptor I am working on now will far exceed this one that you have just seen in ATV Sport. I am taking all this information and considering it for the next project.
You all want to see more custom parts? How about starting with a full custom swingarm made all out of billet aluminum and with "outtacontrol" milled out of each side? The swing arm is +6 with a drag setup and wheelie bar attachment. Yes, RPM is making this piece of work custom for me as well as they are making one for UPP as well. I am having the Raptor frame welded and molded like the Harley frames you see on show Harleys. I have a custom overflo tank to replace the plastic one and I would like to have more ideas for other parts.
I do buy alot of so called "off the shelf parts" because I try to promote those builders who are helping us all out.
I am not a machinest or I would be making my own custom parts and not buying the products off the shelf.
If I were to hire all custom parts I would still be on the first one.
Listen guys I am only doing what I enjoy doing and I really enjoy the ministry I have with the quads.
I get to travel the states talking to people about the Lord and all.
You see I wouldn't even be able to do half of this if I didn't surrender my life to the Lord.
As you read in the article I came from a life of trash and not even two pennies to rub together. I think the Lord is doing a good job!!
Thank you Jesus,
I couldn't of done it with out you.
Luke 6:38

I for one am glad to see so many Christians on this site. Some of my other posts may not seem so christian like. I have used some profanity in them and I try to do better. I always ask forgiveness for my sins everyday and I try to do better everyday but sometimes the old me comes out and gets the better of me. God bless everyone and I hope you all choose the right path.
