The Raptor 350 is just a revamped Warrior. Depending on what type of racing you want to do, there are much better choices out there than a 350 Raptor.

I would definately move up to a 400. Maybe Suzuki or Kawi. I believe they're liquid cooled where the EX is not.

400ex is good, and you can get a used one for a pretty decent price these days

The 300ex is supposed to be better for everything but drag racing, than the warrior, so the same probably goes for the raptor 350.
