Default VIDEOS!!! Craycraft vs. Kenz vs. Sparks

Sparkx- The powroll 770 is not any better or worse than a well built 686 straight from powroll. There was one in Aledo last year than ran with most but not all. Since then the 770 has undergone some major improvements and i expect it to be a contender.

I would take a 730 over a 686 7 days a wweek if $$ was no object. Not replacing the rod will BITE you in the A$$ That said i have stock rods in both of my raptors. Good thing Bob Craycraft lives a few miles from me. lol

Raptoraz- Since parts are parts i would love to see a race between Dollarbillz, ubetrun,Crafty, Kelly and 4 others than i am not sure of the screen names against kens best and then left rapfam run the winner on the low compression Craycraft cruiser[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

There is a 15 year old kid running around out your way on a 730 craycraft, not sure if he is signed up on here or not. I know they put major $$ in the motor 6 months ago.

Sounds like aledo???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I'd like to know who else has a craycraft 730 out here. You probably lose contact with some customers if there are no problems[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Tom, you need stickers that say Low Compression Cruiser on your rear fenders where it used to say Raptor. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]


Are you coming to Aledo Tom?

It would be cool where it says "liquid cooled 660", I'll put "Low Comp Cruiser 730"

Rapfam- there are quite a few 730's out there. A few have gone to Ca and a few to Loiusana to guys i have no clue of the screen names. There are a lot of guys that just read on these forums and never sign up. Raptorrc, Crafty, Ubetrun, Dollarbillz, Kelly, Rapfam are the ones i am most familiar with. Bob will not tell who some of them belong to. LOL From looking in Bob's shop there must be a bunch. I saw case after case of empty Ross 105mm pistons in the corner. Craycraft builds a bunch of raptors

14 mins, are you saying in my area, or who are you implying to? I know of a few, but if he is one of them, I can garauntee that it may have ran good, and if then, he'd be lucky to get the jetting right... I couldn"t count on my two hands how many poorly modded and jetted rappy's are in my neighbourhood... Some people think that just having a pipe on makes your quad fast, some don't even know you have to jet, or tune area specific. I'm sure some round here even guess the altitude and don't really know what it really is or check with a GPS. Maybe that's why when I brought my sled in to the shop they thought it was the best running one in town, and I told them it was running like crap till we leaned out the air/fuel mixture screws. Then I stomped all almost all the modded sleds I ran into on the mountains pushing modded out 151"+ tracks 900 AC M1's and Rev's with my stock ProXR with a 136" track... It's all bout setup, not how many or how big a mods you have. Like I said, if I had a well tuned 686 up here, I wouldn't worry bout no 730 in the kind of areas I ride in, they'd be lucky to keep it straight! LOL Most people buy them bigger engines just to say they have it, not use it.

Not this one!!! Believe me I use it!!! if you want to be the fastest up a hill you have to have a bigger engine tuned perfect, suspension, jetting, every little thing perfect to win on the west coast.

Sparkx- I was not repling to you.

You are right though, there are a lot of poorly tuned raptors out there. They make easy pickens though[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
