How exactly do you figure that they will accelerate to terminal velocity faster. Isn't the gravitational constant 32.2 feet per second squared. The difference will be the wind resistance based on the shape and size of the object. The tank would probably have the highest wind drag, thus reach a slower terminal velocity.

Mr45auto,

don't diss the heavier quads, since some of them roost on your raptor (cough, DS, cough). [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Gravity only acts like its suposed to when there is no atmosphere to affect objects decent. Otherwise a piece of paper and a rocker would fall at the same speed.

I'm sure of 1,2 and 3 but after that, it's to close to call. These are definitely the top 3. I didn’t include 3 wheelers because the thread said quads but if they were included, it is most likely that a Tiger 500 would be #1 and the other 3 would all be bumped down a notch.

All stock drag race any flat surface

#1- LT500
#2- GasGas 300hp
#3- Banshee

I'd like to make it clear that a stock banshee is not as fast as a DS650...will you kids ever learn!?? hehe jk

there a few of you that do but i dont see why some dont think the banshee should be #2?
history has proven time and time again since 1987, since it was created, and since the two stroke big bore wars, the banshee has always been #2 under the quadzilla @ around 77-78+ mph. I dont think that Bombardier could get away with breaking that barrier because of the CPSC limit, thats why they geared their bike down from its intended gearing when they released it. if your ds beat a banshee, then congrats!! i imagine your elevation is different where ever you are, but down here it wont happen.

Who the hell cares about top speed...seriously.

I was talking about drags.
