Default Beat a sick banshee today

This banshee is race ready and everything. It's a 95 thats bored out 20 over, set of pipes/silencers, new filters. I tried it out and its pretty fast. Powerband is great. We decided to do a small race. Less than a football field length but it would be fun to try a few times.

We raced 3 times. First race, I got into first gear and jumped out then shifted to second and rode a wheelie before dropping the front end and shifting up to third then I revved in 3rd gear. I crushed. The rest were the same. Now, lol, it was a small spot to race, I'm sure he would probably beat me in top end if there was a longer track. I just want to say that I beat a banshee though =)

Ive gotten beat by a 300ex one time. I was so embarassed. I was only beat because we were racing on wet grass and I spun the entire way. Every gear revved out in about .2 seconds. But then we raced on pavement, and it was like he was standing still [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Well, the place we were racing had loose terrain and he doesn't have the greatest tires so they spun a lot. It wasn't very long either. I know an awesome place to ride but I'm not sure if he can make it there because he has to be in the high RPM's or his quad doesn't run right. He said he needs a bigger radiator or something. Like I said, I'm sure he will beat me in the long run.

My friend just rebuilt an 88 Tecate. Bored it out to 265cc and has a lot of work done to it. Very nice looking quad and runs great. I might race it sooner or later [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
