the 450 will win the 300ft race pretty easy but on top end I believe the raptor gets it

The raptor just has taller gearing and gets a higher top speed. The only way it will win is if they both go till they are at top speed then give the raptor enough time to slowly go on by.

It has a 14 tooth on the front & a 37 tooth on the rear. I bought a 15 tooth sprocket for the front. But I don't know if i'm going
to put it on.

What's the Raptor gearing? The YFZ probably has a more close ratio tranny though. You can't always just go on sprockets.
