Default Best sport quad for mud ?

My Baja X has won 2wd class at mud bogs totally stock except for replacing the rear tires/wheels with a pair of 24x11 Duro 243's on Douglas wheels. Can't really prove my theory, but I believe heigth of the tire is as important as the type of tread. Try the tallest tire you can get that won't rub anything & I'll bet you'll like the results [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Reverse is for utilities, so you can back up to what you're going to tow/pull/drag [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

ElectricShift - yes, to me it does. Sort of depends on who you're riding with & what you're doing I guess. The rodeo I've attended 4 times a year for two years now only has 2 classes for their mud bog, 2wd & 4wd. This year they started to allow the selectable drive machines to run in the 2wd class as long as their 4wd is switched OFF - they do watch to see if the fronts are spinning & I saw at least one get d/q that I don't think was trying to cheat, his just didn't disengage when he switched it off. But the 2wd's with either tall mud tires or paddles usually won anyway [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

scramblers aren't the worst.....if we are talking stock here, then maybe so......but let us polaris guys work on the motors for a bit, and then that 400 4x4 will tear through any mud!!!! I can see it now.....85hp mud slinger[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I would strongly disagree, I'll start taking a camera on our poker rallies and show you, Scramblers definately are the least best.
WRONG,a scrambler is awesome for mud and a few mods and some good tires,it'll keep up or beat any other 4x4 utility.
