Default raptor and banshee

I like them both and they perform at the Drag Strip pretty much the same, Both can Take there Wins thats how close they are. My Raptor has the slight advantage on top end then my Shee but there still both over 73.

Dunno about the top speed and acceleration, but for wheelies and jumps I'd say the Raptor. Wheelies because of the consistency in the powerband and awesome torque, and jumps because of it's better suspension.

For accel and top speed it would most likely depend on the terrain. If the she can keep it's tires from spinning it will take off like a scalded cat!!!

Banshee beats the Raptor for acceloration, top speed,and neither one are very good at jumping but if i had to jump with either one I'd choose the Banshee. Ive had my Banshee for 8 months and had 5 before it. I know banshees really well. Banshees are one of the best quads out there. I had a 89, 92,94,97, and a 2001. Now Ive got a 2004 and it still puts a smile on my face!
