yeah, my brother has an LE raptor but he's always had a DMC alien exhaust since day one... He's never changed it.. If you've seen it, it has those new itp wheels. The yellow shee does have cpi's. Its a big guy that owns it and I race it for him. The last time we were out there they radared it and it did 104.9 in the quarter.. not too shabby...

Alien, You saw my face that day at your house when I heard the killer bees sound those 2stroke make as I watched those banshee's
passed by.
Pat, It's sad to say it but I think it was at it's limit with what I had, the tall gearing still had me looking for another gear after 5th on the flat drags, and that was one fast Ds that shot of the line like a rocket with a funny button on the handle bars the made a spraying noise when pressed.
Kiko, I never found the GPS.
Crackhead, thanks I dont miss the Rappy, the electric start was a pain with the higher compression and the kick start is so easy I do it sitting down, now the reverse I missed when I had to jump off and push until I saw someone doing the modified "fred flintstone" rolling the front tires backwards with your feet works real good so I still got reverse[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img].

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] You'll love the shee, treat her good and she'll do you the same. With my mods(see sig) I can putt w/ the best of them through trails w/ out slipping the clutch. I can run on 93octane too[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img].

Warrior620, can you get away with 93 octane on a 20cc dome. I have a 19cc dome at home that I've been thinking of putting on my R but I don't want to run race fuel. I wonder if I could get away with it.
