That's what I was saying! The blaster is a great bike, just not ment for what you want to use it for.

If you geared the Blaster down, way down, it should be able to pull the car in 1st gear on flat ground. BUT, if you're hooking the tow strap to the sprocket/disc guard, it probably won't get traction because it's so light. (I'm assuming you'd be pulling it on dirt/grass and not pavement) If you hook it to the grabbar, it will try to wheelie with you.

If you have two people on there, which will be cramped, but can be done, and hook it to the sprocket guard, you should get enough traction to pull the car.

But if I were you, I'd look around for an older utility machine. A Honda 300 2wd would be about perfect for you and there were thousands and thousands of those things made so you should be able to find one pretty cheap or close to the Blaster price. And they are built like a rock so anything newer than a '90 model should still be good.

lol, good luck pulling that car with a blaster............ not enough torque. youre gonna have to drop the clutch to get it moving, and all u will do is wheelie and fall on ur butt..... if you do get it send pics of you pulling a car with it....
