Went to the track today! Southwick MA NEATV races. A DS 650 won his class, a couple Raptors did well some Predators raced ok too, KFX 400 and 700's were there LTZ 400's, 400EX's and CDALES too. Watched a KFX 400 holeshot an Open B or A class race! It was just nice to see all the different type of quads there running. The fastest quads are the ones with the best riders aboard!!! The fastest quads there today were the aftermarket framed CRF's and YZ's!

Gary,

I also have an older issue of ATV Sport magazine with a racing section. When the the Bombardier DS650 Baja won the Baja 1000 it was completely STOCK with the exception of a FMF slip-on with taller gearing for the Desert race......... It was also clocked at 106MPH on radar in the sand........ SO...... THE RADARS DON'T LIE!!!!! I'm not sure exactly what issue it was but I have it at my house somewhere........ Is he still lying?
Please dont tell me you believe everything those rags write!!! If you did then we'd all be riding around on SuDookie Z400's and YamaHAHA Craptors!! They've got us all believing crap. I doubt the DS can do 106 without gear changes and a silencer alone especially in sand. Damn if it could do that fast then I would have probably boughten one without a doubt! Im not saying your a liar or anything but I think you've been misinformed. I have nothing against the behemoth.

It was just geared to the moon I guess..... And I thought it said sand but like I said I'm not sure where the rag is.. SO I'm not sure if it was sand but desert race usually means sand...... I don't know for sure but I know you can gear dam near any of the big boys to go 100, if wanted...

I remember that as well....and that is what was in the mag. The DS guys quoted that phrase for months and months. This was later found untrue when KNUTZ....a forum member that used too build high performance DS engines said the Baja winning DS was NOT internally stock. Thats ok though guys.....you were not around here and had no way of knowing the facts. Peace!
