who would win in a drag.sorry old pic no paddles

 

Stock for stock they're pretty much even, I pull away from my dad's rap from about 4th gear to top end, but with any mods (like you have) its no contest.

 

My 2 were real close through the gears and the Rap had a little more Top End when they both were Stock. But a Modded Banshee Vs a Stock Raptor. That Banshee should tear it a new one.

 

ohh man... my buddys 97 0r 98 banshee tore up my other friends rap. when they raced up olds at glamis the rap got tore up ....yet my buddys banshee has some stuff done to it but not that much just a new UNI filter and toomy pipes and the rap has a big gun pipe and a KN filter.

 

a shee would rip a raptor up in a sec.

 

..... and yet I sold my tricked out banshee for a 02 raptor and am very happy I did.

 

Personally, I'd go for a Raptor over a Banshee. Speed isn't everything. The Raptor can go pretty much as fast as a Banshee if not faster and it's got Reverse and better suspension, etc.

 

The simple fact that I can just jump on the ATV and have the confidence that it will hold together after not being cranked for several weeks or even a few months and after all its a 4 stroke, that goes a long way. I have had literally had nightmares about driving all the way to OK, Little Sahara sand dunes and having my banshee break down the second I pull it off the trailor. I have had enough 2 strokes in my life from blasters, banshees, and 250r's to know that they break down alot. Even if they are properly maintained. No more fouled plugs, messing up with choosing which gas tank has the oil/gas mix, engine detonation due to old or weak rings, and sweating the engine heat problems.

Not every 2 stroke is bad it just doesn't buy the same confidence as a 4 stroke.

They are all fun I just wont chance a 15 hour drive with a moded 2 stroke again.

 

Your signature says your Banshee takes 110 octane. Where do you get this high level of Octane? The highest I can find is 94.

 

I like to run Mach 110. It is sold at a local gas station. Here is an adress to torco they have a search place on the website to find a local dealer.

I also belive that a some sonoco's sell cam 2 which is 110. At least 2 around me do.

You could also order it in barrel form.
