Since a piped and jetted Raptor has about the same power to weight ratio(with a 200 pound rider on board) as an LS1 Camaro, you can bet that it would take most street cars in the 1/8 mile.

personal watched a 2004 450r out run a lt1 camaro and a 01 mustang at the same time. He had them both til about the 1000 foot mark, and my raptor out runs the 450r. So there are 2 cars that your raptor should outrun.

Here's a couple of ATV races I found, don't know if it's a Raptor though. The second one is a Banshee.

ATV vs Mustang

ATV vs Crotch-Rocket

With your raptor u can beat almost every sport car ( not super sport like porsche and such) in the 1/8 mile race...
stock raptor does like 6 sec 0-60 and with your mods it would do better...

my stock ds beated a 230 hp impreza GT so i bet you can do better...

It looks identical pretty much to a Geo, it's tires are pretty much the same size as my Raptors

Yeah, 12 or 13" rims I believe. I saw one here at the university earlier this year for the first time. Used to be a geo, then was a chevy, now no longer in production, replaced by the aveo and soon to be cobalt.

It is incredibly scary to drive in, but he was able to buy it for $500. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
